Alexandre Lacazette

As much as I like him, I'd prefer Tolisso or Umtiti from Lyon. When things weren't going well during the first part of their season, they were Lyon's better players. Lacazette was nowhere to be seen during that period and conveniently picked up form again, when the whole team did.

Might as well go for Fekir

During that period of time Lyon were creating absolutely nothing, so obviously non attackers were the better players, the midfield was useless and Lacazette was barely seeing the ball.
 
Incredible when West Ham can sign one of Lyon's best players.
Think he would be a good signing for us.

He's one of their best players. He has to take more responsibility. I think that's an excuse for him. He should have done better, especially at the start when he had chances and was completely unable to score.

He is a striker, they totally depend on their midfield. There isn't one striker out there that can perform without a functional midfield, not Messi, not Ronaldo and definitely not Lacazette. And there is also the fact that the problem for Lyon was psychological, they hated their coach.

Edit: And I wouldn't say that Lacazette is their best player, Umtiti and Fékir are, I would put Lacazette and Ghezzal behind them.

I said one of their best, not the best. Also, there are strikers that don't depend as much on their teammates, the ones you've mentioned for example, and make something happen out of nothing. He definitely suffered from a lack of support, but he was playing really badly as well.

Tolisso and Gonalons are better than Ghezzal.
 
Like who? Bony was a top scorer at Eredivisie before he moved to Swansea. He scored 17 league goals in his first season at Swansea. Can you name me any non world class striker who is better than that?
Thought you were talking about the present my man. There's plenty of strikers better than Bony right now
 
Seems to be Spurs-bound. I guess Spurs have dropped their interest in Berahino.
 
Spurs would be a odd one.

He wouldn't start at Spurs unless he can play on the right. No chance they displace the Kane/Alli partnership.

If that happened would be a great deal for West Ham. I do think that with the TV money kicking in, we may see a couple of these type transfers from the 'lesser teams' if you will.
 
Would you prefer to sign Kane or 2 players like Lacazette and Dembele? I think they could cost the same that Levy will ask for Kane.
 
If Dembele is in that equation then the latter choice. Kid looks bound to be a superstar. Heck, I'd probably choose him alone over Kane.
 
Dembele and Lacazette then play a front 3 off (right too left) Lacazette Martial Dembele

I too have gone mad with Dembele lust. Looks incredible and his numbers for a kid or a winger in Ligue 1 are phenomenal.

It's best to play Martial-Lacazette-Dembélé, since Lacazette isn't as natural on the wing as Martial is.
 
Lacazette will be in the same situation as Bony right now if he has Aguero plays ahead of him.

He wouldn't really. Bony also now has Ihenacho ahead of him in the pecking order now too, Bony has just been very poor.
Plenty of chances when you have Aguero ahead of you, since he struggles to stay fit

West Ham seemed to be quite excited right now over Lacazette.With them going to a new stadium and all, there could be something in this
 
Lacazette could start for Atletico, Juventus or Arsenal.

That's what they said about Jackson Martinez when he moved to Atletico. Huh, Arsenal? Top team? They don't even have a top striker. You don't actually think Lacazette is right now better than both Mandzukic and Dybala right?

I do think that he is better than Mandzukic and I think that Mandzukic is a good player.

So does Lacazette, he's a good player. But I don't think a proven ligue 1 can be called as a better player than a proven Series A, La Liga and Bundes League. And also Lacazette won't be guaranteed starter since both Mandzukic and Morata are fighting their place for the spot.

I guess Messi cant be called better than Ronaldo then ey

La Liga is a top league mate. And he's also proven in the world competition not just La Liga. Stop making a useless argument by trying to use Messi and Ronaldo in Lacazette situation. I am using the likes of Bony as an example and you use Messi and Ronaldo :lol:
Was it really hard try to understand what I meant? Lacazette is just a proven Ligue 1 player. He hasn't prove himself enough. And from the beginning I already said he's the realistic striker option that we should sign given the strikers option and situation we currently have.

Expect a lot of this over the summer. That premier league tv money is going to shake things up. Mercenaries are going to be flooding into England from every direction.
