But some of the comments about Giroud are ludicrously over the top. For a first season in a new league he's done fine.
He’s far from exceptional. Let’s get this out the way and stop comparing him to Henry and RVP. He should be compared to Adebayor, Chamakh, Bendy and maybe Eduardo. His goals stats are good but I think he’s technically one of the worst players we’ve had. Thankfully, he’s brave, not lazy and works. If he didn’t have that in his locker we’d be sunk. But we really need better for next season.
