No. Judge him when you like. Judge the window at the end.

It says a lot about this place that the idea of judging how a game/season/transfer window at the end, not the beginning or even half way through is thought worthy of ridicule

I honestly don't know how you got that from "Giroud isn't at the level who will win you a title.
And there was only one season when Giroud was at Arsenal and Ozil wasn't so I'm not sure how sensible comparing that one season with the others is.
EDIT (Although yes, his stats are better in the other seasons than the one without Ozil.)

So why are you tap dancing around the issue by talking about last seasons goal ratio? We didn't need Ozil in 2013 and now that we have him, we still haven't bought a player to help get the best out of Ozil or Giroud. The overall point relates back to poor planning in the summer.

It was in response to your direct question

But the more general point is we need to get a player who can compliment Ozil's strengths, not get rid of Ozil. Getting rid of a player of that quality would be a backwards step.

Yeah let's just forget about the last 10 seasons, reset everything....I mean if something happens 10 times we can just forget about it right and not put it down to a pattern of how we do or don't do things correctly?

I literally have no idea how that is a response to my post
When do you judge how a game has gone?

Goal ratio isn't more goals. Giroud has yet to equal the amount of goals he's scored in France.

I'm not even talking about getting rid of Ozil. This is about the 2013 transfer window specifically.

It isn't, but it's only fair to take into account the fact he wasn't always first choice last season and still scored a good number of goals when he played.
I've no idea what we're arguing about, I don't care what happened in 2013, we've been needing a really top striker for years, I don't think anyone would argue with that.

Is Mbappe here yet?
