Get rid of Giroud ?

I don't agree that they would, it's not about current form...Giroud simply does not have the ability to do what we are asking of him.....we have no pace on the wing so when he's holding the ball up he's holding it up for the congested cluster of central midfielders where invariably the ball will be cut out by a deep lying defence.
Remy has a nice burst of pace but considering none of our midfield has he would not be much benefit to us on the counter attack as it will fizzle out by the time it gets to him as he doesn't have the strength or ability to take multitudes of players on the way a Higuain or Suarez could.
Balotelli is a very average striker for someone who would cause us so much trouble and completley destroy any dressing room harmony that we had. Bony and Ba we'd have the same problem as Giroud, both would be starved off service left holding up the ball in a congested midfield....and nothing to prove that they have the finesse to kill off the chances against the top sides any more than Giroud has.

I'm not defending Giroud i'm really not, but the names you are mentioning would not leave us any better off....we bought Giroud because he was avaliable and had a good season with Montpellier there was no consideration about how he would fit into our side anymore than there was with Podolski.
In the mean time expect Wenger to drown our squad with a plethora of central midfielders who play exactly the same way in the summer...Draxler etc

Oh and buying strikers like Mandzukic who will offer us nothing more than Giroud in terms of pace

It’s madness and goes back to what Blink mentioned in a previous post, there seems to be no forward thinking with these transfers. I have no idea why Wenger is going for these slow and bulky centre forwards who struggle to lose their markers over quick, nimble and mobile strikers. We play quick, short pass and move football. Why buy someone with a dodgy first touch, slow acceleration and poor movement to play up front? I think Remy would be a good shout but it’s not going to happen. The way Ozil and Cazorla were carving out chances is the way to go. Pace, players interchanging and confusing the opposition.
