good backup striker.

the best backup striker in the PL.
My brother people some think he's even good enough to lead the line and those who think he's not even good enough to lead the line and call him average think he's backup quality just because of statistics.From that logic I can conclude that all backup strikers are average and because of stats Giroud is
the best backup striker right now in the world.You see the thing is that I don not even see him as backup quality let alone a starter.
Not exact matches
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?

strikers have scored over 20 goals in a season Very rarely do PL Champions have a

backup of Giroud's quality Look at Spurs.

Despite Wenger talking up a lot of our Academy youngsters in the summer, only Jeff Reine - Adelaide (31) has actually been newly promoted to the side although Akpom (32) and surprisingly Sanogo (22), who were both out on loan last season, have been kept as
striker backups, despite Arsenal having bought Lucas (9) and already having Giroud (12), Walcott (14), Welbeck (23, when fit) and Sanchez (7) all capable of covering that position as
well.
giroud, lecoq, are gud
backups to hve in the squad but not a first team player for a team wanting to challenge for epl.coq has got to improve slightly on the ball but off the ball he is gud.everyone knows about giroud and I don't think a gud
striker is enough for us.we need a very clinical guy not a guy who will be going through dry patches coz thats guaranteed from a gud
striker.gibbs is tricky he is a gud option to hve on the bench but if we scout someone younger and
better than him then I think we can sell him for both the clubs sake and himself coz he hasn't progressed as a player.what I find shocking is bellerin back up is jenkinson worth a team challenging for epl?I don't think so and we should find an able guy there than fool ourselves and next season we pay for mistakes again.

Giroud is an excellent
backup to a top
striker and we need to keep him Ospina is an excellent keeper and was very
good for us the last two seasons in both pl and fa cup.
He is not a quality
striker because he makes a lot of mistakes in his game.The fact that he scores 20 goals does not mean he is a quality back up
striker.It is one thing to be a goal scorer and another thing to be a
good or average player.Goal scoring is a very important aspect of a player but not the only aspect.Trust me you can score 20 goals in all competitions and still be average.If Chamakh, Gervinho and all the so called flops scored this same goals they would still have been considered not
good enough for Arsenal.His game is just not
good enough and I for one believe even if no one believes that we can get a
backup striker who is
better than him and also a top centre forward.Its all about mentality and willingness.Forget his goals and look at his game or else you'll force me to bring up
strikers in the world who have scored his same goals and are even considered terrible.
As for
strikers, we have Giroud and Walcott, which in my opinion gives us a wide specter to play on, but Welbeck as the
backup is to me not
good enough on the top.
Ramsey, wilshere are injury prone and inconsistent so if you want to move a step forward let one of them go and rely on the second as a sub About mert i think he is not getting
better anymore and he has already lost his position to the moderate gabriel get a
better player Walcott have to leave Ox needs to get loaned Leave campbell as a
backup Giroud is pushing me to the limits i don't want him I know I'm dreaming but we need three attackers 2 wingers and a
striker

striker any day any month any year but not any
striker we need a
good one
better than what we have got we need a starter
striker not a
backup guy i want giroud to be our second choice And while you are at it bring a RW (salah or pedro would have done the trick) But back to reality we will get a big zero
Ok so his stats are
good for a
backup yh i get that.But listen if watch his game television you will see that he is so bad.Let me ask a question.What if Arsenal bought a world class
striker and he got injured before the league started.Many people in the world who are Arsenal fans would start wailing.While's those are the same people saying that he is
good enough for
backup.Is the
backup striker not to cover up strongly for your injured starter.So why would people wail when they say he is
backup and is more than capable of doing a job.This is contradiction at its
best.

good signing should Spurs beat United to his signature, but # 20m would seem a lot of money to pay for such a young player, and in my opinion, Spurs would need to sign another

backup for Harry Kane next season.
