Fans react to news of Arsenal offer for Lyon star
Arsenal fans appear to be very divided regarding how good Alexandre Lacazette could be.
The 26-year-old has been on the radar of Arsene Wenger since last summer when an offer was rejected by Olympique Lyonnais.
Arsenal are finally closer to wrapping up the acquisition of Lacazette following a new $56 million bid.
However, not every fan appears to be convinced about the potential of the French goalscorer at the moment.
Even though he racked up 28 goals in Ligue 1 last season, some Gooners insist he might not be a success at the Emirates stadium.
Here were their tweets….
Comparison between Giroud & Lacazette is not fair. Different league & different oppositions every week. The PL is a much tougher league !!!

Lacazette will be a flop. Don't buy him Wenger! Arsenal needs elite strikers like Lewandowski, not Ligue 1 bullies!

Am i the only Arsenal fan who think that Lacazette will not fit the Premier league?

I rate Lacazette somewhere between Francis Jeffers & Thierry Henry

In case people are still not convinced about Lacazette, remember Atleti were chasing him.
