Giroud Discourse

[Özil's Panoramic View]

If we played to his strengths, he'd be decent. We won't so he's a little bit useless. Lack of movement, doesn't get involved in the game means our attack dies ASAP. Decent plan B but Theo is our best striker and Ugly fuck isn't in his league

Shows how dire things are.

Things are dire indeed but Theo can't be blamed at all. He's shown up this season whereas others have disappeared and finally shut all his critics up with his goals and assists over the last couple of seasons. Get some quality around him instead of Diaby, Giroud, Arteta etc and we are seeing a legend in the making

No, not blaming him one bit. He has really done well for someone punching above his weight. For that he should definitely be commended.

It's what we have come to expect from him tbh. He's improved every season and now he's stepping up. His only real problem was injuries and now he's keeping fit, he is producing

Tbf Theo is our shining light in this dark time. And now he's signed the contract, hopefully he breaks the goal record during the next few years.

Did he sign a 250 year contract?

Goals is fine for me, I'm sick of seeing players doing everything but score goals, we had Wright before and he was all about goals and he was fantastic..if a striker delivers goals I'm happy

Yes, I remember how happy you were when Adebayor delivered goals

[Letters]

so diet, great football and signing top players?

What has Wenger ever done for us? :lifeofbrian:

He'll be gone in the next few years sadly. Just at the peak of 26/27, he'll be gone. He'll be a legend in the making ready-made for someone else. Signing for only 3.5 years and not 5 or 6, signalled his intent. Basically if we don't win anything or at least compete for the premiership in the next 2 seasons he'll be off...we'll be back to having 1yr or 18months left to run on his contract and it will be the same thing over again. He's covered his back basically, which I am only just now understanding - but loathe just the same. Don't get me wrong, I like Theo a lot and he's got us goals, if he would work as hard as Jack for the next 2 seasons then it would be great for us.

Yeah don't get upset or anything but he didn't do it for you. Don't think he gives a toss about the fans, he'd sell them off one by one as part of his successful youth project given half a chance.
