Qualities: Giroud - Hold up (but not against top
defenders Tery, Cahil, etc), short pass, hard working, team player, defensive duties (set - pieces), injuries Benteke - Hold up, short pass,
better dribbler, long shots, finishing, positioning, defensive duties (set - pieces), can play with his back to the goal and also drop deep and face the goal when
marked weakness: Giroud - very slow, easily
marked, poor finishing (not wc finisher), technique Benteke - injuries, not a hard worker If you look the stats for the since 2012/2013, they have almost similar records except that Benteke scored like total of 19 goals (correct me if I'm wrong) in his 1st season and also have a decent record against top teams, keep in mind he plays for AstonVilla not Arsenal where you
get much more chances and
better players around.
u guys should start comparing our players vs our rivals there is barley big different the current squad is fantastic but Wenger does not know how to utilize what he
got,
mark my word he will drop Coq and start with Ramsey ad Cazorla in deeper roll and he will only bring Alexis on the RW, witch is a disaster Ozil, Cazorla, Ramsey are attacking minded players not
good defenders that will exposed our fragile CB and Boom Boom, Wenger out........
OG wont do
well in the FA cup final if he starts, Villa will hold a high line against Arsenal they cant park the bus there defence is crap, for OG its simple he hasn't
got the pace or strength, you need a man who can run at the
defender not hold the ball up, because of Okore Giroud will have an awful time he faster and stronger i think if Giroud is on he will be man
marked (Okore's bitch all game) if you don't believe me watch the training footage of him manhandling Benteke...... Not an easy task.
