ponsaelius Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 We'll batter Arsenal next week though. 4-1. Start of McClaren's revolution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Giroud is far from average, he's just a very bad fit for their midfield. That's the problem more than anything else, not so much quality but someone who compliments their midfield and none of their forwards do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Giroud is far from average, he's just a very bad fit for their midfield. That's the problem more than anything else, not so much quality but someone who compliments their midfield and none of their forwards do. He's not average but I couldn't see him starting for any other team as good as Arsenal. He is good technically but is slow and has bad movement. He's like a less talented Berbatov Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Giroud is absolute garbage man. Goodness me. They might as well start Welbeck up there once he's back. Guaranteed to have more about him than lumbering slow Giroud. Absolutely pants. What the fuck are you on about now you absolute gimp? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Really can't stand Giroud man. Just don't see it, sorry. He's such a stiff. For the record I think he makes Ozil look really bad too. Nothing to look for in behind, which is what makes the likes of Ozil, Silva, Fabregas etc. so special. Just a waste of all of Arsenal's passing ability. If they're going to play him then they need to play Walcott on the right at all times, so they can get in behind with someone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I think he's absolute quality tbh. Not Benzema levels of being underrated, but underrated nonetheless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AY Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 He's a world class one touch player. s**** at running and stuff though. This. And tbf Liverpool defended very well against him, still he managed to create few good chances. Like the one for Alexis that hit the post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 His record against top 5/6 teams is awful Giroud. Not good enough in the air against the Skrtel, Terry types. Not fast enough to cause em trouble. Lacks top level composure too as avidence by his slip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 He's always slipping man Or just failing to reach for something. I find him very frustrating. I would have all of the below ahead of him, and these are not necessarily top top strikers. This is Arsenal for goodness sake. They should have better upfront.

KaKa Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I can only apologise if I have caused you offence Giroud is just one of those players I don't like. I know he's good, but something about him being in that team frustrates me. Think he hinders them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Gomis better than Giroud ffs. Ah man Gomis is underated man. His movement is really good. Shelvey has been playing him in all season. Does a great job staying onside and getting in behind. Just a personal thing man. I find Giroud's lumbering style quite distasteful. Leave me alone.

TRon Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I think he's absolute quality tbh. Not Benzema levels of being underrated, but underrated nonetheless. He is a brilliant finisher like. Arsenal always seem to struggle when he's not in the side. I think a lot of the criticism aimed at him is because he's not as good as Costa or Neymar who are absolutely world class.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 He's underrated IMO, must be a nightmare for a striker playing in the Arsenal style, I bet a lot of them couldn't handle it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Giroud is absolute garbage man. Goodness me. They might as well start Welbeck up there once he's back. Guaranteed to have more about him than lumbering slow Giroud. Absolutely pants. Giroud maybe shouldn't be leading Arsenal's line as their main striker, but things went proper downhill for them last night as soon as he came off. Walcott offered zero threat with Liverpool sitting back so deep. At least Giroud had a very good effort saved, and created one or two more chances with his sheer presence in the box.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Harry Kane ahead of Giroud. Youre fuckin tapped in the head, pal. Proper mental. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Harry Kane ahead of Giroud. Youre fuckin tapped in the head, pal. Proper mental. Well, if he continues the 30 goal a season pace, it will be hard to deny him. Giroud has never been anywhere near that prolific. The Gomis inclusion is worthy of mockery, though.

Newcastle Fan Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Giroud is a good player man, strong, can finish, links up the play perfectly for Arsenal, he's involved in most of their goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 His average is 0.44. In a team that doesn't at all put balls in from the wings and plays with 1 striker, that's a good return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
