Olivier Giroud is finally finding consistent form with Arsenal after a hit and miss first season with the club.
The problem is that, he is the only main striker for Arsenal, they really do not have an out and out striker to cover for him.
They have Podolksi and Walcott who can play centrally but they are not prolific finishers by any means.
Arsenal tried in vain to sign Liverpool star player Luis Suarez and in the end could only sign one main playmaker in Ozil to amplify attack.
Reports suggest that Arsenal are eager to sign Romanian Ciprian Marica.
The former Schalke striker is now a free agent and Wenger wants him as a cover for Giroud.
However, the real question is, why are Arsenal so eager to sign him when his record has been quite poor.
In the last two seasons, Marica has played 34 league games and could only find the net 5 times.
Wenger did sign another free agent, Yaya Sanogo this summer and the youngster should be given the chance when Ozil is not available.
Little injury prone but still with a better record than Marica.

It is very unlikely Arsenal are interested at all, this is just agent talk and media hype.
Arse-Anal are also ran’s.Wenger is living in the past,his side are easily bullied off the ball.Jesus they have one striker,a million midfielders,one keeper ( Who’s sh*te ) And let’s not talk about the defence.And these muppets actually thought they was going to buy Suarez lol I’ve never saw such desperate supporters BEG Liverpool & there fans to release a player on the grounds of a phantom release clause.Then your IDIOTIC board sanction a bid of £40,000,001 hahaha PATHETIC CLUB ( Then use overpay for OZIL by £20 million pound ) Use are finished as a club…
Danno, why don’t you learn to grasp the English language properly bfore disgracing yourself on this site. I’ve seen 4 year olds with better understanding of the language you are trying to use (notice how the word ‘use’ is supposed to be properly be utilised). No crawl back under the rock from which you reared your ignorant little head. Have a nice day 😉
Beg? Why would a fanbase that’s probably got a larger proportion of afro-caribbean fans than any other in the country beg for a racist like Suarez? A biting, diving, cheat, to boot? Most of us never want to see an Arsenal shirt sullied by that scumbag. Also, word to the wise, he doesn’t want to play for Liverpool any more. He’ll be off, just as soon as Real use our Ozil cash to buy him. Btw the £40m +1 came from Suarez’s representatives, it was not Arsenal that suggested it. If anything it was Suarez wanting out of your club so badly that led to that happening. And even if we paid £85 million for Ozil, we’d still have been less ripped off that Liverpool were when they bought Carroll, so I’d stop throwing stones, greenhouse dweller.
Danno, you should be a disgusted Spuds fan or one of Liverpool’s hopefuls. Please do not be too harsh on yourself with the words. It is definaely NOT good for your health, mate.
Danno!! You sound a bit bitter, ozil is rated as one of the best midfielders in the world!!! “Best number 10 in the work” mauriniho words not mine. So how did arsenal pay £20million too much?? Bale is worth £86m then ozil at £42m in my eyes and alot of top professionals is about of a bargain!! Suarez does not want to play for Liverpool and this whole thing about him giving 100% no matter what!! is a load of bullocks!!! I repeat BULLOCKS! Imagine if he actually wanted to play for a top 8 prem club who can’t even finish above ther local and smaller neighbours!!( Everton if your a bit slow) he would be even more amazing but he clearly doesn’t so your going to see 100% of a players effort that is unhappy where he is not 100% of a player who loves the club! In world football Ozil is the bigger name but your probably a some Fifa player shit head who goes by a computer games stats!!
Gunners all d way. One Love. If u miss d star, at least fall among d clouds. So Ciprian is kk by me on a one or two year contract. If he performs well at Arsenal, we can extend, but otherwise, we look for another high profile to compliment Giroud. So i think Wenger shld go for him. @ Danno: U can go hug a live transformer*
Danno!! you sound like a very clever guy (lol), how an earth you have come to the conclusion that we have paid 20mil more than we should have for Ozil is beyond me. We didn’t beg anyone for Suarez we simply made a bid & Loserpool didn’t want to sell. In the end we got an even better player in Ozil so F**k you!! Who ever you support Loserpool or Tottenham, I can guarantee none will be finishing above Arsenal. Totts have bought in a load of over priced rubbish and so have Loserpool. Now run along little boy you muppet.
@Danno – other than the unfortunate grammatical indiscretions, I’d say you’re mostly spot on! Never mind these deluded dimwitted Arseanal fanboys littering this thread with their scum bovine crap. Well done for speaking your mind…and always feel free to express your opinion on here, Okay?
He is a terrible striker. Nobody else in world football wants him, why would Arsenal?
Madness, absolute madness.
