'Arsenal could really use an efficient, goal-hungry striker'

We asked for your views on Stephen Warnock's comments on Arsenal being overly reliant on Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka.

Here are some of your comments:

Rajkumar: Arsenal need a prolific striker. You cannot depend on Saka and Leandro Trossard to score in every game. A top striker should have been bought in the summer as most fans see this as a shortcoming. Get someone like Lautaro Martinez or Dusan Vlahovic.

John: I am absolutely amazed Arsenal didn't make signing a striker their priority during the summer. It it clear to everyone that Kai Havertz is not good enough and it is time for Gabriel Jesus to be moved on. Every story coming out is 'Arsenal interested in X midfielders'. How many more do they need? If the number nine position is not dealt with, Arsenal will never win the league.

Peter: Arsenal could really use an efficient, goal-hungry striker, but not a selfish 'give the ball to me and I'll put it in the net' type. Their system of play demands that you put a real shift in defensively as well. havertz does that very well but lacks the cutting edge in his finishing. Flashes of it have been shown, but he gets crowded out by defensive blocks without help from other team-mates.

Darren: I think the problem is on the left side and not so much a centre-forward. As much as I like Gabriel Martinelli, he has lost his way a bit and the rest of the team know it. I lost count of the amount of times he was in acres of space out on the left on Saturday and they refused to pass to him and tried to always go right instead. Teams just double up on Saka knowing there isn't much of a threat coming from the left. If Martinelli or Trossard, or both, find their form again Arsenal will go back to destroying teams.

Jon: Definitely too reliant on Saka and Odegaard. This showed when Odegaard was out injured and there was no-one to replace him. Arsenal lost all of the creativity that he gives the team as he is the puppet master pulling all the strings that make arsenal tick. There is no one to replace Saka either. The last transfer window was dreadful. They knew what we needed and didn't do the business they needed to.

Bruno: I still believe Havertz has more benefit in the team than Martinelli or Trossard. That being said, if Havertz wasn't so passive in attack and we had a striker like Alexander Isak, who is far more technical and direct than Havertz, our left wingers would no doubt find a bit more success in the final third. Havertz is really the only option for Odegaard to play a one-two with before the ball inevitably ends up with Saka.
