    The problem is that he is not Van Persie... if he had come in place of Aliadiere, he would have been considered good but since he replaced RVP, he needed to be doing stepovers, dictating play, hitting 100 mph FK's etc. Sometimes you just cant argue with numbers and having a hand in 30 goals for the club in his first full season is truly remarkable. His movement can be better but again, he is trying to get to understand his teammates and the constantly changing wingers- sometimes Theo, Gervinho, Ramsey, Podolski, Cazorla, does not help.
    Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..

    miralles was injured for a large chunk

    much more mobile than giroud and works harder. giroud is great coming off the bench as a game changer, a plan B, but he's no plan A. he's slow and mechanic.

    miralles causes havoc. giroud stands around with his tongue hanging out.

    Mirallas is a threat but lets not pretend we've got a dud in Giroud by comparison.

    I'd rather have giroud tbh.

    Moyes was sayin only the other day that miralles needs to man up a bit as he keeps signalling the bench to come off with the slightest little knock or scrape.

    At least giroud just keeps playing no matter how many times he gets kicked.

    Big sexy will be better next season. You cannot knock his contribution so far.

    Giroud has done OK but his game needs work. not just for Arsenal but for himself. France has no striker of note right now and he could make himself the default choice by improving his game. He needs to improve his hold up play, especially when the team is under pressure and the ball is lofted over to him. If only everyone had Berbatovs first touch

    He could use a renown striker coach to help him out but our coaches are shit. Imagine if we had Bergkamp, Wrighty or even Alan Smith. showing these guys the ropes.
    I believe he will be better next season though, he just has to.

    Mirallas is more of a forward than typical striker really and Wenger likes his big, tall strikers. Giroud is often involved in what goes right for us in games, it can just take a while.
