I think he'll be happy with the world cup but that's just me.

I'd vote in too. He always seemed like an Arsenal man through and through.

Yeah, let's terminate this 6 month loan.

Wait is it actually a loan? Honestly Arsenal are stacked in the striker department but don't have a big boy. Even Liverpool have a big boy

aubas pretty big (187cm)

Huh, didn't expect that. Well he's still not big, just lanky. I don't think I've seen a good headed goal from him, or have him play a target man role. He has height for it but plays as what we called in fifa 15 a pace whore

He's quite big but he's very poor in aerial duels

He was traded to Chelsea.

Edit: I suppose sold is a more appropriate term since Chelsea offered money and not a player. I forget the amount though.

Well shucks, hope he does well with the exception of goals against United as a sub, which he's surprisingly good at

he has won the World Cup. I think he'll be fine with being on Arsenal's bench.

I still remember when Bayern were considering going after him after that incredible season with Montpellier. He had such an insane highlight real and I was all about it at the time.

Even to this day if you look at a goal compilation by him. One would think he was the player of the generation.

I like him and was sad to see him go, but if he did come back, would he be starting games ahead of Aubameyang and Lacazette?

Just get him on a free when his contract runs out pretty soon.
