I don't think he's a great solo striker especially surrounded by Sanchez

But I do think there is merit to why he plays over lacazette for France, he's creating space for griezzman in the middle

If arsenal used him in the same way he would be super successful

It's a weird comparison to say but to me he's a better, much better Emile Heskey, the stuff he does off the ball opens up so much around him even if his own goal total isn't as high as the strikers for the other top clubs
