This is simple a very intelligent child can solve this problem.Firstly today our keeper was very poor however i know he will come good.By the way why is Paulista no getting his chance.What i have observed
about arsenal since we signed Mertesacker from day one and since he started playing is that Mertesacker hardly gets involved you will usually see him a few times because he does not want to get caught out.e has always been a weak link in the defence even in his greatest performances here.When i see us playing with a high line and he is there i always laugh.It is just a mistake waiting to happen and i can tell u that it will happen again this season.Secondly why is Ramsey Cazorla and Ozil playing in the same line - up in a 4 -5-1 formation.That is just not right though it will win you some matches due to individual brilliance.It wont
work at all.Lastly the least i say
about Giroud the better i am not judging him on one game.One would imagine if he was not french and like chinese will he be getting these chances under Wenger.To me he will always be an
average player and i will stand by my word even if he has good games.

I am pissed today hearing
about Olivier Giroud three year contract and salary he is earning.That is unfair because Giroud does not deserve it.He has not
worked to show that he deserves it.We should look at the quality snd output of our players before paying them.Well its too late now so we should look forward.We do nt need stats to even tell us that Girouf is usually
average for arsenal than good at most times.I would have sold him if i was Wenger because he does not deserve to be leading the line still after 3 years and i doubt he will like to warm the bench.He is very lucky to have Wenger as a coach of arsenal london fc.Arsenal has not moved forward because we think getting rid of players is a bad thing.We always hesitate when it comes to selling players we do nt need.Arsenal need a world class cf not a world class cf.Its is time to move forward by addressing our mistakes.Since Van persie left we have needed a cf and ifBenzema is available we need to get rid of who we do nt need so that we move forward.Arsenal do not need Giroud though many may be against my speech.Once the premier league starts and Giroud is our main cf it shows that Wenger has not learnt from his mistakes.Just as we got Cech who to me was a need he needs to just find as a reliable and clinical cf.
Hahaha pepes here saying Benzema is not significantly better than Giroud.i do not even want to go to stats.Firstly lets talk
about finishing, Giroud finishing is not really that good at all.He misses a lot of chances.He most at times needs many chances to score and all also misses sitters too much.his shot accuracy too ai nt that good at all.This makes him an
average finisher.Secondly, lets go to his dribbling abilities.every player has his own limitations.Giroud has
average dribbling.there are many times if he could beat a player he would have been through on goal but since he cant he just waits for support denying the team a chance to score in most cases.
Average dribbler.In addition, hold up play, Giroud holds up the ball really well, however, this does not
work in all cases against physically strong defenders and also very intelligent defenders his hold up play suffers a lot.so for hold up play he is ok.i could go on and on my word this striker is not good at all do nt you watch him or you want to use his stats.ah!
