Pain in the Arsenal
Arsenal: Leon Bailey overtaking Thomas Lemar in every conceivable way
Arsenal are not likely to drop wads of cash on any one player, which is just one reason why Thomas Lemar is falling behind Leon Bailey.
Arsenal will be scrounging to pluck some talent that may be able to fill the void that Alexis Sanchez is going to leave. Thomas Lemar has long been touted as the man to have the clearest route to the Emirates. He did, after all, nearly complete a move in the summer.
But times change. And perhaps it was a blessing that the Gunners didn’t get Lemar. Not because he wouldn’t have been a fantastic acquisition, but because we would have been handcuffed to his form for years, given the massive £90m price tag attached to him.
You don’t spend that kind of money on a player if you don’t plan on giving him serious responsibility. And we all know enough about Arsenal’s financial situation to know that if that much money was spent on him, we would not be getting anyone else. He is the solution. Him and no one else.
