United are back, baby

Ah heck. You are right. Mentally tuned to dismiss penalties I guess.
Didn’t Rashford score against us though, so he’s tied with him?
Drogba was always (or tried to be) paired with a prolific striker though - Shevchenko, Torres. And maybe Mourinho’s game just needed a pitbull who played with his back to goal and scored in key moments, as they had lots of 1-0s and 2-1s. Wish we still had Giroud - he was somewhat like Drogba, but with silkier link up play, aged like fine wine too.
I digress - my point being - Arsenal need a prolific striker. Just take a punt on someone who wants to score every game (Nketiah probably is the closest for us with that attitude), but with actual skill to do it.
I am not bothered by Jesus, him being in the team is a boon even if he plays only half a season - but looking ahead, we need a proper striker. Martinelli, Saka, Jesus and Tross are all chaos players - they will create chances, but not score most games. We need a more prolific, selfish scorer - someone who bags in 20+ a season in the league. Auba was the closest to that after Van Persie, but we need someone younger with a better workrate.
Liverpool 2021-22 vibes
So cringe he’s apeing Ronaldo without even 1-2 proper seasons. FFS.
