If Giroud is on the top of his game he might just put enough chances away for France to win it but that is the best France can hope for.

Not exact matches

He certainly did a Giroud when coming on against Leciester on Friday and Ramsey has had his fair share of injuries which have often come about from a busy schedule of games, so perhaps he could be an impact player for Arsenal from midfield just as the big Frenchman is up top.

obviously I would prefer to have a much more suitable alternative in the defensive midfielder positions but if they focused more on defensive end and the occasional long - ball, this would allow Bellerin and Sead ample opportunities to bomb forward on their respective wings while still having enough cover to maintain their defensive shape... it would likewise allow for overlapping runs on both wings, thereby letting both Sanchez and Perez to cut inside and get shots away in and around the top of the box with their most dominant feet... if goals were needed I would sub Bellerin for OX and bring Ramsey in for Elneny then switch to a 3 -2-4-1 (more of a 3 -1-5-1 with Ramsey playing higher up the pitch) and I would only use Giroud as a sub when the game dictated it for tactical reasons... this would allow us to be a high energy team with incredible link - up play and a much more direct approach in the offensive end

When Giroud is on his game he's excellent the difference between him and op strikers like Aguero is Aguero has more consistency and can get the goal agains a top team when its tight.im not sure any of the strikers mentioned are what we need, we need an aguero type player which none of the mentioned are.

Spot on bro... the problem with most of us Arsenal fans is that we've been made to accept average as our only option after been promised by Gazidis and other members of the board that we will compete with top European clubs... i feel some players need to be allowed to go in order for better ones who are ambitious and hungry for titles to come in... and someone made mention of Giroud saving Arsenal in a few games like the countless chances he's missed that could have put the club in better positions could be equated right... he should have done that against Watford, west brom and the rest... truth be told..

My happiest moment in the past 10 seasons as an Arsenal fan will be waking up on August 8, 2015 for the first premier league game of 2015/2016 and knowing that its a reality that Giroud is not the striker who we are pinning our season on and that we have signed a top quality striker.

i was very impressed with coquelin but we could all see the way newcastle was fowling him im worried it only a matter of time before his injured so we need suffcient cover arteta is ok but if something happens to coquelin (i pray it doesn't) where his out for a couple of games arteta can not play a bunch of games for 90 mins all the time so im hoping arsene is looking at a DM has we speak also on theo, to be fair to him he actually did ok great movement but it brings me to think that giroud and walcott can play together in a 442 formation because giroud can provided the hold up play for walcott to make runs and walcott can make the runs to allow space for giroud if walcott has gioroud finishing and giroud walcott pace we properly would be with man city at the top of the league

As well as making it clear that he would rather not spend most of his time sitting on the Arsenal bench next season, the France international star Olivier Giroud will be aware that he is about to be on the wrong side of 30 and may not have too many years left at the top of the game.

Last but least Ozïl, the talent is there and we know it: on any given day at the top of his form he is arguably the best # 10 in the world and just need performances like this and the previous one to show it and remind everyone (what a pass for Giroud); will do a lot for his confidence and also felt he could've been more involved in the team play but that will come with game time (got 90 mins today)... Hopefully that doesn't stop until season's end and keep them passes and goals coming... Dare I say I would've love to see once a front of Alexis, Ozïl, Walcott / Chamberlaine and Cazorla (mouthwatering)!!!

Yes we have attacking options on the wings (sanchez) and in CAM and Giroud is doing an admirable job and Walcott could do a job down the middle but if we want to win more games and finish top, as well as having goals from the rest of the team we need a demon who will bang in 25 - 30 goals for our goal difference and to pounce when it's tight and that 1 chance falls your way.

Why was Lacazette being played on the wing?He's not that kind of player.He prefers try to linkup with players ahead of him and hardly tries to dribble.He should have been played in the centre where he» smost effective with his finishing and movement.We him to get to top form and to gel with the team.He's our hope this season no matter who leaves.Also I watched only the second half of the game but what's this I'm hearing about Giroud not passing to Lacazette or refusing his handshake?I hope what I'm hearing is not true.A lot of our players are still here due to Wenger's kindness and if those players don't show respect they must be shown the door.I was very impressed with Nketiah and Joe Willock today.I wanted to see more of Malen though.

Overall I am happy with a draw... Yes we could easily have won the game if giroud had taken some of the easy chances he was presented with, but the spuds could just have easily gone 2 - 0 up a number of times... We could have gone top of the league today but with all the injuries at the moment the most important thing is that we didn't lose ground on city... Looking forward to after the international break when we will have the majority of our players back #COYG

I think the reason why maybe half the fans (included me) are not convinced of Giroud as our first CF is that we as club are or used to be very depended on our CF to win as games and some how have tradition for strikers to thrive in Arsenal (Atletico Madrid are really good at that) even though they where not world class when bought (unlike Chelsea apart from Drogba and now Costa) With the midfield we have now someone like Bony would compete for top scorer.

Trophies will depend to a large extend on games against top teams both in the PL and the CL and IMO, Giroud and Mertesacker are liabilities in those types of games, or at least they are players we can improve on.
