Yeah, I doubt that will happen. Lacazette turns 30 next month and he's on an estimated £180k a week. I can't see the club pushing up his wages to over £200k a week. This may end up being his best season in terms of goals if his form continues but I can't see him maintaining this. You can see he's declined physically already. He's lost his pace, he's losing hair....he looks like a mid 30s player already. We always compare him to Auba and just don't see the logic in talking about how poor Auba has been this season (14 goals) yet entertain the idea of Lacazette getting a new contract off 17 goals. If some still stand by it being a mistake to reward Auba a new contract last season when he scored 29 goals and 31 the season before, I can't see how a new deal for Lacazette makes sense. Time to cash out if we get a good offer.
Yes exactly more hair = better player
Willian > Robben
What next are people going to start bringing up the number of tattoos players have in regards to their football ability
That's obviously a joke but physically you can see he's aging and on the decline. On that basis, I wouldn't offer a new deal. Best to cash in on him. Take a break son.
Doesn’t matter Lacazette is fast enough, theirs more to a centre forwards game than pace if it were that simple Auba would have been the main centre forward here and Dortmund (I know he was latter in career) but under Klopp he played wide to accommodate Immobile/Lewandowski, then here Emery and Arteta both use Lacazette in the middle over him, he’s not exactly Giroud slow but he’s not exactly 16 year old Theo Walcott fast either.
It doesn’t help that he’s asked to drop back sometimes you’ll see him at CDM practically, then pressing the next minute and making runs not everyone has an engine like Kantes
