Not really no, that's the number of games he's scored in not the amount of goals he has.
He's not really scored in enough games.

I despair at times, I really do. sigh. you pointed out his figures were distorted because they were scored in bursts, rather than being more valuable and spread over games. 11 goals in 9 games - instead of 11 in 4 for example. it's actually better ratio than theo. but then again, you hate him too, so what am i even doing this for.
Let me put it another way.
He hasn't scored in 24 games he's played and 5 of his goals came in a spell of 5 games at one stage of the season, that's not a good spread.
My point of scoring 4-5 goals in one match was a purposeful exageration.
One goal was for France btw. So he's scored in 8 in 32 for us.
see, i just helped you find your angle.
You've made me realise he's worse than I thought he was :lol:
He's no Jérémie Aliadičre, thats for sure.
That point stands, none of this points to inconsistency.
The bit you picked up from a totally unrelated conversation was when comparing two players and in that scenario stats tell you f*ck all because it was about conversion rates and the stats never told you how far away from goal your effort's were etc or give you any context for the chances.
In the conversation we've been having where goals vs number of games the stats are basically the whole argument.
You go out of your way to make it hard don't you? Shall I pick up some totally irrelevant unrelated post and use it in a random discussion as well?
So, we're all agreed that giroud is a pretty decent player then.
Good.
