That’s why Emery’s approach was abandoned, I suspect. Smart.

He'd be cover for Laca, have six months to get his fitness up and make a big enough impact when he does play to get an extension into next season.Power n Glory wrote:Reiss wrote:@jamesbenge: As reported elsewhere, Arsenal have been offered the chance to take Luka Jovic on loan.
I'd take Jovic. Not because I want him, because quite frankly I have no f*cking clue how he'd fare, but because of the shambles of a window we've had and the fact that I don't want to go into the final part of the season with Lacazette and Eddie bloody Nketiah up front.
We won't be match fit. He's hardly played over the last 2 seasons and has a handful of goals over the last few seasons.
If we take him on loan we'd still need another striker.

Mate we're desperate. Is Jovic on a 6 month deal really that bad?
The guy had an incredible season for Frankfurt before joining Madrid.
We need reinforcements up front and January is proving hard to bring in our targets. Laca and Eddie won't cut it.

We can't hope that players like Isak and Jovic will become goal scorers in the PL when they can't even do it where they are now.

Self inflicted crisis by not giving Laca a new deal, taking too long to develop Martinelli and falling out with Auba. Can’t say I have much sympathy.

Arsenal pushing to sign Calvert-Lewin, Isak or Vlahovic before Monday’s deadline
by James McNicholas, David Ornstein, Amy Lawrence
The success of Arsenal’s transfer window last summer was predicated on long-term thinking and a clear strategy.
It will be interesting to see whether they can hold onto those principles as January one hurtles towards a close.
Arsenal have entered the final week of the winter window still hoping to do considerable business.
Ideally, they would like to make three additions, with centre-forward, central midfield and goalkeeper the areas earmarked for arrivals.
Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka are due to return from their suspensions after the mid-season break, so the striker situation now arguably feels most urgent.
The Athletic understands that, in the remaining seven days of the window, Arsenal will redouble their attempts to prise one of their primary targets away from their current clubs — Dusan Vlahovic, Alexander Isak and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are the names that have figured most prominently in their discussions. Ahead of a mid-season training camp in Dubai, manager Mikel Arteta has flown to America to speak directly to Arsenal’s ownership. It is inevitable that transfers will figure high on the agenda...

I get it but do you think a guy that hasn't played regular football for three seasons will cut it? It was 2018/19 when he had a good season for Frankfurt. We're being iffy about Isak who has only scored 8 goals this season, but willing to take on a guy that has scored 7 over 3 seasons? Cheap and quick is the main appeal but I don't know if it solves our problems this season or if he gets in ahead of Lacazette. That's what I think we need. A strong starter so Lacazette can come off the bench.
He's absolutely not the ideal striker to bring in but if it's a choice of going with what we have or adding Jovic I'd rather we took the punt.
Top 4 is on the line and if we can't bring in our no1 targets then Jovic is better than nothing.
