I think time is up for Giroud or better say, he can GTFO from Arsenal soonest this summer.

sanogo easy, even if he doesnt score a goal this season, he simply gives us more options going forward. he can hold the ball up better, pass and run. therefore he starts for me.

i have given up on playing this holdup style with Giroud.. Sanogo is very raw in terms of his touches and finishing.. still prefer him because he moves and we looked better playing a more direct style..

At this point, I would even start TV5 atleast he run and can shoot or Henry on loan or Kim Kallstrom, i mean it cant be worse.

Even though he is shit, Giroud is still, overall, the best option we have at CF atm.

People are already frustrated with tiki taka around the box and you want to play Ozil up front. He never shoots

mesut should just drag defenders out and play it through for those wide duo+a midfiled runne to sprint into
at least he will keep it better rather than trying flick ons in every single chance
+we would be more secure defensively and allow Ramshere to play their natural roles
really cant do worse than what we have done in some of game this season

Yeah, what the feck is that about Giroud that he always tries to flick the ball on for a midfield runner. Even when there's 4 defenders around him or around the runner he still tries it. FFS, how stupid and one-minded is he?Sina wrote:-------------Arteta--------------

He should know when to do that and when to hold it up and wait to pass it to a teammate which is open.

Throw in Henry's statue as well and revert to a 4-4-2 like the good ol' days.Samuelj29060 wrote:Bergkamp's statue.

Sanogooooaaaal!!!
If we're gonna gamble the rest of our season away, might as well do it with this raw kid. We give him experience and confidence. He could come good.

I agree, that is really starting to piss me off. The midfield passers all pass to Giroud even though they know he's going to lose it as he's surrounded by 4 players. If by some miracle he doesn't, he flicks it on straight to the opponent. That Wilshere goal against Norwich has started being the bane in our attack since we're so desperate to recreate that moment even though we just lose the ball 99% of the time its attempted.

I wonder if some people actually watch full matches lately.
Giroud is only "shit" when compared to a top player like Suarez and even so they are two different style of players and contribute in different ways.
Ozil is a number 10, but is also "shit" by your books because he doesn't track back like a box-to-box midfielder.
There is a lot more to a player than his position on the formation sheet.

Podolski: 9%
Highburied's grandma: 18%
No love for Podolski from Wenger and the fans it seems
