Tomorrow's (or today's rather) MOTM?
It's cup final day! 
Original post by baconbutty
How do you know liverpool would of accepted 50m for Suarez? And higuain isn't much better than giroud infanct in the first few months of the season giroud was far better
because we were wavering about getting rid of him, but we knew we could get more than 40m
i was worried you would've upped it to 50 - i thought they would've accepted
but theoretically, and extra 10m for suarez instead of ozil; where would you be now?
true, giroud hasn't been bad, but higuin has always been consistent as a striker, and giroud can have a habit of being absolutely useless in a game at times

Theoretically, when we broke the £40m clause they should have sold him to us. But they didn't, somehow they stopped it, at seeing as it was pretty much written in stone that they had to accept our offer then I'm pretty sure Liverpool wanted to keep Suarez or he'd have gone?

Consistent is the one thing higuain hasn't been I'm strongly sceptical of your football knowledge so i don't think I'll pursue this conversation any longer

This is the #1 most idiotic comment of the decade. In the first half of the season each club plays all other clubs once. Thus at the midpoint of the season (at which point arsenal were top of the league), they had infact played against all 19 other teams.
yeah I sort of exaggerated- I meant before December when they began to bottle it. They played Manchester city and Chelsea in that month.
I don't mind Giroud but I do mind him being our number 1 striker

Spoiler
i think we didn't sell to you simply because of how cheeky the 40m+£1 was.
could've at least been classy and said 40.1m or 41m.
but srs, you're right - not sure if it was legitimate clause of the contract, but if it was a word to word conversation at any time, the owners really should've stood by it; if anything just to keep their word.
of course we wanted to keep him, because he has the quality he has shown this season
but he was desperate to go, so we were wavering
however i assume we had our own valuation of 50m+ so we wanted to make sure we wouldn't be robbed.

lol typical Arsenal fan- uses unhurtful insults as he does not having anything to debate. You probably won't even be an Arsenal fan tomorrow when they lose the FA cup.
Javier Hernandez, Edin Dzeko, Romelu Lukaku, Vincent Aboubakar, Giuseppe Rossi, Diego Costa, Carlos Vela
Where is everyone watching the game later on?

looking at his stats, i would say he has had a fairly consistent striking career; seems to be a good return for the money tbh
i don't watch him in person on the field, so i'm not sure what he looks like, just going on numbers, but apparently they don't lie.
don't criticise me like that, it's ugly.

Wasn't an insult and who said it had to be hurtful? I'm not debating anything with you cause it's bait how all you are trying to do is get a reaction
Same guy who said Arsenal are faker than Chelsea

He's got similar numbers to giroud is giroud consistent?

Higuain is a consistent goalscorer. I read that Messi aside, he had the best goals to minutes ratio in Liga for the period that he played there. I'll try and find the stat. His goals to appearances ratio is skewed as well because of how many times he came off the bench for Madrid.

i wouldn't call them too similar, but it depends what you mean by similar i guess
higuain's numbers are generally better, and he usually doesn't even play as many games as giroud
and i'm not just talking about goals, it's assists too
then again, i see a lot more of giroud, therefore i see a lot more of him when he isn't playing well, and i'll only really hear good things about higuin
therefore i guess i have maybe developed a bias against giroud on that basis
he is not by all means a bad striker - he would have a solid season at a mid tabled team, or maybe one higher like everton
but i just know arsenal could do with more quality up front
the problem is who you they could get since benzema won't happen unless madrid buy suarez/aguero
P.S: i really need to learn how to spell higuain...
