As long as
Giroud is our main striker we will not win any major trophy.
Giroud is our main striker again, so that ends our title challenge automatically.
I think Wenger will keep him, and I wouldn't be surprised if
Giroud was our main striker yet again for next season, considering how Wenger usually performs in the transfer windows, coupled with his unwavering loyalty to certain players.
If by Wednesday morning,
Giroud is our main striker, then we need to support him and hope he performs well.
Giroud is the main striker in a country that boasts Lacazette, Griezmann, Dembele, Mbappe and others.
Blame me if you want, but I don't care who else we put in the team, as long as
Giroud is our main striker we will not win a major trophy.
Not exact matches
I know we
're short in central midfield, but Arsenal would actually
be better off playing with a man less, than having Ramsey on the pitch, and
Giroud proved over a whopping FOUR YEARS, that he isn't good to
be our
main striker.
It
's no longer just a shame that we will start the Season with
Giroud and Walcott as our
main strikers, it
's a comedy.
But that
's not an excuse to rely on
Giroud as our
main CF.. He
's proven ever season that he
's only good as a back up
striker and not one that can carry the team to win the title.
Walcott lived 10 happy years off Arsenal, only coming good in rare moments while
Giroud will never truly
be a top
striker, despite
being Frances
main choice.
Giroud's
main role as the central
striker, believe it or not,
is to occupy the defenders and give our fluid and ever changing formation a focal point.
goodness i can't believe it people will still defend him.You know something when
Giroud misses many chances like at Monaco i did not criticize him even based on that you know why?its because he has always not
been clinical.The only way a team can improve
is by indentifying its problems and solving them.Arsenal has
Giroud as the
main cf and Welbeck as backup to him.
Giroud has done well scoring some goals some too important but collectively he does more harm than good.Do not use moments to judge a player judge him based on content.
Giroud does not excel in many games than he excels in games.As a
main cf you need to
be consistent.I see people here saying
Giroud can not dribble he cant do this he cant do that but its a bit crazy to criticize him for that because every player has his own style.
Giroud limitations as a player costs arsenal and will cost us a lot.Most importantly his poor finishing which has cost us several times.Not good enough.His style of play
is ok for us but a
striker who can take on players and run behind defences very well would make us very strong and also should
be clinical.For Welbeck he needs to works on his finishing and composure by doing the basic things right.He rushes infront of goal too much.For now he
is just above average.However he can excel if he works on improving.
Giroud and Welbeck will always
be a pain in arsenal's neck for most part.Some will call me stupid but hey at least i want to analyze the problem.People may support
Giroud or Welbeck to lead the line next season but as the saying goes if you fool me once shame on you but if you fool me twice shame on me.Will you let
Giroud and Welbeck fool you again?
Giroud is good
striker but he should
be our # 2 and not
main.
I
'm really curious who
is going to replace
Giroud — Wenger
was never going to get a
striker this window but with his
main man out something must
be done and done quick.
And not only that he does that, but he uses Welbeck, a guy who fails to score a goal even if it
's just him and the goal, as the
main striker, even though he has
Giroud on the bench, a guy who scored a goal in the first game.
Giroud, Walcott, Sanzchez, Poldi,
are all good
strikers (but they
are more assisting then
main).
Arsene Wenger
was full of praise for the big
striker after his latest brace and strongly hinted that
Giroud was definitely the
main man for us in the centre forward role.
Add that to the fact's that he
is only looking for a
striker because of Danny Setbeck's longterm injury and that
Giroud will
be our
main striker next season, So the answer to this equation
is» Don't expect much» (Start looking for a fourth and fifth choice?)
Wenger made it clear
Giroud would
be the
main striker AGAIN so let's expect a foreign good young prospect.
here
is simple tactics for you... why would Arsenal want to play the way Barcelona plays or play intricate football and put
Giroud up top (one of the most immobile
strikers Arsenal has ever had) as their
main striker?
Don't have a
main striker — should
be buying one — if we don't,
Giroud will continue to waste a lot of the good work done by our very talented midfield.
I love Welbeck and hope he becomes better and better and
is our
main striker, but respect what
Giroud has contributed and appreciate that he
is a pretty decent and a current Arsenal player
I
was saying if we get another goal scoring winger like Sanchez it won't matter if our
main striker (
giroud) gets 20 goals.
I too have much regard for
Giroud but we
are never going to win the title with his standard as
main striker, despite his relative success and at 31 he can not
be expected to play third fiddle behind the LACAZETTE and P - MA.
I even thought top clubs
were in for him.Some three or 2 seasons back many here
were debating why he should
be our
main striker.As soon as you mention any other
strikers name people would come out with stats and many things defending him.Even Wenger has defended him blindly in the past.People say Wenger
's stubborn yeah.But don't we know that there
's a reason why everything happens?Honestly speaking he
's the reason why Arsene Wenger has failed to sign a top notch
striker because he still believes in him.The funny thing
is we signed Welbeck at that time who to me did nothing before to
be the
main man here.People keep saying Welbeck
is hardworking and that he works his socks off.But the question
is was that our reason for signing him.Welbeck
being signed to challenge
Giroud tells me a lot about
Giroud's quality.Even Walcott (no offence to him) who has zero CF qualities
was even chosen over him for a string of games and all in all I think he did well but has too many defeciencies for that role.We've compromised as a club and it'll come back to bite us.
Many fans on this site have come to the realisation that
Giroud indeed deserves
being our
main striker.
Giroud should not
be our
main striker.
What I
am saying
is we have seen 4 years of
giroud as our
main striker and he
was frustrating to watch!
But chill out, Arsene won't buy him or any other
striker just like last season as he
is going to count on
Giroud and Sanogo as our
main strikers and guess what!
I like
Giroud, his stats are good and comparable to vardy and kane but there is something missing, perhaps it is making a goal out of nothing, but I can not se us winning the league with giroud as our main st
Giroud, his stats
are good and comparable to vardy and kane but there
is something missing, perhaps it
is making a goal out of nothing, but I can not se us winning the league with
giroud as our main st
giroud as our
main striker.
Me too, haha the guy won't make it, if Wenger thinks we can win he league with him upfront as our
main striker with
Giroud injured then he
's got dimensure.
We finally have a solid
striker (even if he will take some adaptation time I think he'll
be true class) in Lacazette, we have solid center backs (once they
are all healthy) much better than in recent seasons,
Giroud is our killer weapon off the bench rather than the key we
are relying on as the
main source of goals, Coquelin and Elneny
are now midfield fall - back options rather than Flamini (no offense Mathieu, I appreciated your efforts, just making the obvious comparison), two high quality keepers, etc..
When will Wenger learn that: 1)
Giroud CA N'T
be our
main striker 2) we need to play with a proper left winger 3) we need PACE?!?!?!?!?!?!
Fact
is,
Giroud + Sanogo will not score more goals than Aguero + Dzeko and Costa + Drogba hence if
Giroud and Sanogo
are gonna
be Arsenal's
main strikers, Arsenal has a very small probabilty to win the title.
Giroud should always
be our
main striker.
Wenger shot down rumours of
Giroud departure, I'd rather we let him go but once a better
striker arrives that
is the
main thing.
Surely our
main striker is still
Giroud.
I
'm definitely not comfortable with
Giroud as our
main striker so if we can get a proven
striker or a winner like Reus then convert Sanchez fully then we can
be a big threat to any team.
In my opinion
Giroud may well
be the club's
main striker, because let's face it Alexis
is a converted winger rather than a
striker.
I expect
Giroud to
be our
main striker even if he doesn't score 1 single goal next season.
Giroud is too one dimensional and too slow to
be our
main striker.
Giroud scored 16 league goals, he
's been the
main striker for 4 seasons but didn't score the goals required to win the title so he
's better off as a sub to come change the game as Plan B!
Giroud is a good striker but no top club would have giroud as their main striker, second choice possibly to offer something different but not first c

giroud as their

I think
were in good position right now in terms of
strikers with
Giroud as our
main man, who
is playing very well since the New Year.
The only thing I can hope for
is that Perez will
be our
main striker this season just so I don't have to deal with an other season of
Giroud and on his youtube highlight films he looks a much better finisher than
Giroud.
If we buy any hot prospect
striker I will
be happy, but my Arsenal fan cynicism says our illustrious manager will bang on about «must have the right qualities...» and we will end up with bargain basement buys for a backup to
Giroud our
main striker... hope not...
Giroud was never meant to
be our
main striker.
Olivier
Giroud has
been our first - choice for the past few years, but his tally per season has him way below our rivals
main strikers.
Giroud is Arsenal
main striker and he knows his responsibility
is to
be scoring goals or assist to score for Arsenal in conjunction with Sanchez and Welbeck.
we won't
be signing a
striker so please lets stop, i want one as much as any of you guys, but wenger stated
Giroud will
be the
main striker and he even wanted Vardy to play the wings so imo wenger
is looking for welbeck replacement.
