Three Reasons Why Arsenal Should Not Sign This Veteran Striker

According to Mirror, Arsenal are linked with a January move for Fulham striker Dimitar Berbatov. Arsenal fans in social networks expressed mixed opinions about this deal. Some fans believe Arsenal will benefit from experience the Bulgarian striker will bring in and few others want Wenger to get a world class replacement for Giroud, not just a temporary back up.

Berbatov

1. Too Slow For EPL

Dimitar Berbatov is famous for his amazing ball control and magical first touch. But  on the negative side, he has very poor pace and acceleration. Arsenal’s gameplay relies on fast one-touch passes and quick counter attacks. They already have Giroud who is very slow compared to other strikers in the league. So, buying another slow forward is a bad idea that will disrupt balance in Arsenal attack.
