What is the Plan B to Suarez?

Liverpool v Olympiacos - Steven Gerrard Testimonial

Spain v Serbia International Friendly

Adrian Lopez

Age – 25

Club – Atletico Madrid

12/13 League Apps – 32

12/13 League Goals – 3

12/13 League Assists – 1

The numbers look truly awful, and they are awful, but certainly aren’t a reflection on the Spaniards talent. Arsenal were linked to Adrian Lopez for quite some time last season and understandably we fans turned our noses up at the idea. With 19 goals in all competitions the season before last, this season was supposed to be the season Adrian Lopez built on that start with Atletico and push on.

But this season Adrian failed to hold down a regular spot, with the majority of his appearances coming off of the bench. Technically sublime and very quick, Lopez has the qualities you’d want off of your forward man. Lopez is capable of playing out wide also. However after last season’s poor showing I very much doubt whether Lopez would be on Wenger’s mind as a potential plan B to Suarez.
