Not exact matches
Sanogo was
really poor today, no
ball control, no
hold up play and no self confidence.
Welbeck will probably never be in the same league as a
hold up player, but it
really isn't necessary if the midfield can keep the
ball better.
Sometimes you just need to throw
balls into the box and then we
really lack a physical presence, which
really helps when you need to
hold a player off and give other players time to link
up.
In addition, just like Giroud, Benteke is also very adept at
holding the
ball up using his big frame, so Arsenal
really don't need to tweek the system if he's playing
up front.
But what
really matters is the general contribution to the team, Giroud
holds d
ball up, harries defenders n oppositioo midfielders and defends corner kicks n free kicks and is a constant threat in set pieces.
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!
All he can
really do is
hold the
ball up and compete for headers.
To
really be a dominant team we need a world class striker and not just one who is good at
holding up the
ball, we can not have Per as one of our CD, we would need a leader in midfield and preferable a world class wide player.
He can
really hold the
ball and run and move the
ball higher
up the field.
Olivier Giroud: 8.0 / 10 — Scored the crucial second goal and
held up the
ball really well throughout the 90 minutes.
So gather
up the clothes and shoes that don't fit or flatter, the books you've already read, the collectibles that you don't
really treasure, the treadmill or exercise
ball you swore you'd use every morning but now serves mostly to
hold clothes that either belong in the dresser or in the laundry hamper.
