Yep, a well earned week off for Feo.
So Giroud is a ****....
Worse than Chamakh, Bendtner?
.....Go!!

He is terrible when he has time to shape up and shoot, more often than not ends up missing the target which is unforgivable.
Stick to the headers Big Sexy.
Watch his all-round play. His finishing was off today, but he hold the ball up and plays others in brilliantly.
Goals will come. At least he's involved in the game, unlike Chamakh.
Giroud is light years ahead of Chakma.
This doesnt say much because Chakma is so shit.
Giroud, if given proper service from midfield IMO is a good striker.. I think he makes good runs and pulls defenders with him. If we ever play a proper 4-4-2, I can see him being a really big asset.
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
Thing is, the time for goals is now... He arrived at a time when honeymoon periods are ill-afforded.Originally Posted by Grimandi's Perm
Not a bad player if he was at a QPr or a Soton, just not what we need.
He's the best we have. Like it or not, we look a far worse side without him.
It was reported on SSN that ******* had been watching Dember BA at the same time he was scouting Giroud, but went for Giroud!
Wenger said: "It was Giroud or Demba Ba in the summer — they are very similar players. I was a bit cautious about the noises on Ba’s knee injury, but someone told me the problem he has is manageable and can be prevented."
Yet he signed Overmars who had a dodgy knee because he was a risk taker and had steel balls. Now he's a loser with no ambition.
Imagine then how we'd look with someone who did the attributed to him, plus scored needed goals.
He just looks so clumsy in everything he does. He's useful when we punt the ball up to him or put crosses in (he almost scored a great header at the end) but we need more from our centre forwards. If Theo had performed like Giroud did today, we'd have the usual suspects gleefully slam him. IMO we should try Podolski in the centre forward position because Giroud's not good enough at the moment.
Not sure why this guy is getting a hard time to be honest. Granted his goal return could be better. However he gets in good positions, has good hold up play, great link up play and is involved in the game constantly. He looks fairly dangerous and is constantly asking questions of defenders. I would be more worried if he was contributing nothing. His all round play and positioning is good enough to suggest that the goals will come. I think he has been unlucky too where he has had shots blocked with legs etc where on other days those fly in and instead of netting none he could have had a brace. Think he has done enough in his first season to suggest he has a bit about him and given the right service he will get goals
