With this idea, Wenger had been keeping an eye on Giroud of the France team and had already put him on the transfer list, but hadn't thought of taking action before.
Now he had this idea... Arsenal is a team strong in attack but weak in defense, which is related to his initial insistence on an attacking football philosophy.
Since it's impossible to rely on a solid defense to score, it's better to pin all hopes on the front line and play with a 4-4-2 or even 4-2-4 formation with wings flying together.
With two explosive players like Ma'el and Van Persie, if that center forward is strong, it's not extravagant for Arsenal to average more than three goals per game against others.
Time to make plans!
Arsenal has a chance to win the league this season, so more attention and seizing opportunities is a must!
