WELBECK: Facts About Arsenal's deadline day acquisition


Oh! Oh to be! Oh to be a Gunner! that got to be Danny's official chant after we picked the wounded Devil cleansed him up, baptized him and officially gave him the cannon!

Welbeck is a Gunner! that's all I know, something most Red Devils are finding it hard to fathom. Yeah! you have to dance Van Gaal's tune maybe after your boys are done taking selfies with Di Maria.

Some call him a 'makeshift' striker others a poor finisher; all i know is that all that is bound to change under Wenger's tutelage.
Who exactly is Danny Welbeck?
Daniel Nii Tackie Mensah Welbeck, is his official name. Danny is a 23 year old England international who'll be hitting 24 on the 24th of September. At least a week after we play Dortmund in the Champions League and 24 hours after we've hosted Southampton at the Emirates in our Capital One Cup fixture.

Below are some of the facts you didn't know about Danny apart from the fact that he scored the winning goal in Arsenal's 1-2 loss to United in 11/12 season:

*Has a great matches per goal ratio for his country better than Rooney himself
*Flexible and can be able to play on the flanks.
*Last season was Welbeck's joint best tally of his career with 9 goals.
*Welbeck had a conversion rate of 25% – which was better than new team mate Giroud (18.2%)
*Welbeck only averaged 1.8 shots per match
*He has the pace to break past the opposition defence – something that is shortly lacking with Giroud and Sanogo up front and has caused them difficultly when faced with deep lying defences.
*extremely good at holding up the ball and supplying team mates in wide areas before making a late unmarked run into the box
*Had an average passing accuracy of 87.6% during his time at Manchester United

*His work rate that helps his midfielders when defending or pressuring opposition defences when on the ball
*During the last two years, he's only managed 60 shots on goal
