tesppidd:
Puig didn't impress?

Seriously


There was a point in time that the only good thing we saw on our screens on match days was Puig...

And we kept on cursing on Koeman for benching him.

Have you forgitten so soon

Damn!

tesppidd:
Una don start now.

Because Auba don dey score for Barca una don dey dey excited.
You are same guys hailing hosana hosana now, Hope it doesn't get to the point when you will say crucify him, cricify him.
I hope so.

Back then with Messi around, we needed a point man to replace Suarez.

Laca is a point man not Auba.


And you guys sound like there's a gulf in class between them!

Before Arsenal, Auba had about 140 goals in 10 years while Laca had about 106 goals in only 7 years.

With the likes of Messi, Dembele, Coutinho, Fati what we needed was a striker in the mould of Laca to replace Suarez, not Auba.

andrewbaba44:


Forgotten what so soon ?

Nothing special on what he did oga ,we just love the boy and that’s all

Only good thing we saw on match day was puig ,how many game did he manage so start that he was the only good thing we saw

andrewbaba44:


I have always liked auba ,forget the issues he has been having he is one of the best strikers at the epl ,can same be said of lacazette?

I cannot crucify auba ,he wasn’t purchased for 100 million euros while collecting huge salary doing nothing ,if auba drop form tomorrow I won’t still criticize him ,he isn’t a long time investment ,he was signed for just 1 and half year so we should just enjoy him at the moment

So auba was a wrong buy right since it was laca type of striker that was needed

Which one is before arsenal again ,laca was never on auba level and that’s on period

tesppidd:
What fucking level is that

Auba is not in any level. Ooh all of a sudden Auba has a level!

Who dey mention Auba before? When talking about world class strikers who dey mention both Auba and Laca?

All of a sudden you want to ascribe "level" to Auba?

Two of them no get any yeye level for European football.

Auba 215 goals in 426 games.
Laca 153 goals in 350 games.

Both strikers are almost at par..

Which one be level here?

tesppidd:
Of course now we're spoilt for choices.!

At a point last season Puig was the only shinning youngstar, along with Fati surely.

But Koeman subdued him surely.

Guy, you have chosen to forget!

andrewbaba44:


Person Dey play small small minutes and at times no minutes and you are telling me he is the only good thing we saw

Pedri was a shinning young star from his debut ,when I told most of you he was better you guys disagree but I am sure you all have kept shut now

Why are you guys not saying xavi Hates puig also ?

andrewbaba44:


Auba has level right from his bvb days ,350k weekly kept him long at arsenal

No matter how you try to twist your narrative lacazette is not on the same level with auba ,same auba that average 1 epl goals in every 2 games despite his late arsenal poor form the good stats is still there ? Auba is known as a world class striker and same can’t be said of lacazette

Same lacazette that cannot make the French squad ahead of Ben yedder

We won’t mention auba here because he is not a young striker and we weren’t ever thinking of getting him

You think it’s easy winning premier league golden boot ahead of salah and co abi while playing for a team like arsenal who doesn’t make top 4 ?

As good as benzema he has never won the top scorer award in Spain for more than 10 seasons ,he will win this season own though

I repeat ,laca is not on auba level ,they played for the same club and the rest is history

tesppidd:
There aren't 1 million levels of strikers.

At most there are 3 or 4 levels of strikers.

Auba and Laca are on the same level. For many games Auba was the point man for Arsenal while Laca was mostly a support striker when he featured.

You talk like there are 10 levels, there are 4 level max, and both of them are on the same level.


PS

If Laca was playing for Gabon, he would be a first team player with abeg.

Oboy this haaland saga just be like game of thrones, Today city are heavy favorites for his signature, Tomorrow he wants Madrid, Next tomorrow Laporta meets with his agent, That de ligt's transfer saga might be a child's play compared to this one

Baddestguyp:
we don't need Pogba...
That's going backwards...
We don't need someone with high wages with attitude that causes dressing room problems

I don't really understand why we need De Ligt too...
I can't say for sure...
All I know is we need a good CB...
Dunno if De Ligt is the right choice

tesppidd:
You sound like it's alien to you that a coach can limit and kill a footballer.

Before we saw Pedri's talent, we saw Puig's.

There was an outcry here as to Koman's use or rather non use of Puig.

Maybe you didn't see Puig's potentital but the majority of us on this thread did.

There was a big gamr we played, i can't quite remember now but i think Bayern. Puig was our only player who came out with a pass.

But am sure you don't remember.. you wouldn't.

Now am not comparing Pedri and Puig but the fact remains; no one knows how Puig would have turned out if Koeman gave him a chance.

Isiterere:
Left to me , I do not want Halland in Barcelona.
I am scared because of his latest injury crisis, are we looking another Dembele debacle? I just pray it will not be a waste of funds.

andrewbaba44:


Auba is a world class striker and laca is not

If auba was playing for France he will only be behind benzema at worst ,and not behind Ben yedder giroud martial and co

Lacazette has not played for France for about 4 years ,that should tell you the type of striker he is .

Aubameyang will never be in a French team and giroud will be playing ahead of him

jpmoriarti:
I never saw Puig's potential even before Koeman. Yes, he can pass the ball around, just like any La Masia graduate. But nothing special. He flashes around looking to always give the final pass when a simple pass out wide or to the next free person in the midfield would have been the better alternative. He ends up losing the ball and then the whole team would be under pressure.

This for me, is one of the major reason he hasn't progressed like everyone expected.

tesppidd:
You have shifted from "not in the same level" to world class.

That phrase "world class striker" is quite striker is quite ambigous.

Aubameyang is not at the level of Sarez, Aguero, Ronaldo, Benzema, Lewandowsky, Mbappe, Cavani, and so on so you need to break it down what you really mean by "world class striker"

Auba at his best could never be sought by traditional European heavyweights like Bayern, Real Madrid, Bracelona.

Only has-beens like AC Milan, Man U, Juventus and Barca of now can go for Aubameyang.

And its so dubious how you mention people like Ben Yedder and Martial (to elongate your list by fire by force) and leave out the likes of Mbappe and Dembele.
You for kuku add Griezman and

Since you want to put it that way a French coach would never put Auba ahead of Benzema, Mbappe, Dembele and even Giroud sef.

In summary Auba is at best a second-rate striker. That's at the very best.

Him and Laca are in the same class.
Him are Laca are like 80 percent and 75.
Both na B-.
At best B+.

Nor be because him don dey play for us now, you go com carry am go where he nor reach.

tesppidd:
You never saw abi? That na your own.

Me i saw huge potential in Puig and Koeman killed it.

Case closed!

andrewbaba44:


Auba was not sought by Madrid and co ? You can tell that to the birds around you ,maybe you where blind when arsenal gave him that 350k weekly salary ,almost all European big teams want auba ,our fellow Barca fans here can attest to that so stop lying just to make a point

If you think auba is second class striker then lacazette is a 4th class striker ,lacazette that’s not good enough to play for France ahead of giroud Ben yedder Na him you Dey put for the same level with auba

Before auba signed that new 3 year deal he rejected about 5 Europe top clubs and Madrid where among

Dembele is not a striker,Griezmann is not a striker for France ,think before you talk ,I am talking about strikers here ,if auba is playing for the French team he will only be behind benzema

Ben yedder and martial are strikers making the team ahead of Lacazette ,lacazette has not been good enough to play for the French team for 4 years and you get mind Dey put am for same level with auba

Same laca that cannot give auba stats arsenal

andrewbaba44:
Lacazette on the same level with Aubameyang

Same lacazette that cannot make the French team even when benzema was out ,dude has not play for France since 4 years ,even Ben yedder at 31 is still getting called up but same can’t be said of lacazette ,Na that person good enough to replace suarez then

Same lacazette auba met at arsenal and he outscored him in lesser games ,auba still had a bad later season at arsenal and lacazette couldn’t still meet up

andrewbaba44:


Koeman didn’t kill anything oga ,person never see anything play yet koeman Na him kill am ,can you even listen to your self

Puig did nothing than passing the ball around

Xavi is still not using puig ,you guys should transfer this to xavi also

tesppidd:
Believe you me i heard that about Pedri sometimes last season.

Una don get plenty players now; how una no go dey yarn opata

tesppidd:
Auba was always used as the main man forward for Arsenal.

Is it not natural he would score more?

Choi who do you?

For fuc sake stop playing double mouth.

Using numbers to rate Auba above Laca but using national team selection to place him below Yedder.

Give us the goals per game of Yedder, Martial and Laca and tell us why they are better than him based on Le Blues call up.
