Remys 1st, he was class according to some here, second match he is shit.just like the case some already saying he wanted us to buy jovetic just because he scored 2goals but did nt say the same thing when jove was in the physio room last season and will not reapeat it when he gets injured again.most here are quick to say «i clamoured for a certain player to be bought» when such a player is performing but none here would say» i was wrong» on their favourite players (that eventually flop) that we did nt buy.i think i am beginning to understand hafiz now when he named fans favourites: cisse, diame, capoue, victor moses etc..

Walcott has been doing well out wide so far this season, and is likely to be given the nod to play off the striker alongside Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, with the former getting his preferred role back after being forced to play as a makeshift striker in the previous two matches, as Giroud will no doubt be taking his slot back.

I've always maintained my stance that Arsene Wenger loves French players in his team than any other players.No matter how average you are once you're French and once you're in the first team he tends to give you so many chances to prove yourself.I can start mentioning them if you want me to but I know you know them.If Lucas Perez was French he wouldn't have been out so early believe me.I just don't know where to begin.Was Giroud bought to become a super sub or to be the leading striker?Having giving us many sesons of failure people are now content with him being a so called super sub.A player like Giroud is not built for that kind of role.He ws a super sub in 99 % of those matches because he was not played when he was supposed to and we needed presence in the air.The funny thing is people are using only this season to label him as a super sub.There were so many matched that Wenger should have started Giroud but for some reason didn't start him.I only see Arsenal as the top club who'd be crying over Giroud.If a good offer comes we should sell.
