I love Bif, but when Walcott plays up front, Alexis, Ozil and Ramsey look like different players. We are far more dynamic, aggressive and unpredictable. All our best performances have occurred when Walcott was up front. FA Cup final, Leicester away, United at home.

Giroud is a great option against lesser teams at home and coming off the bench. But it's so easy to nullify a one-paced attack and it constantly invites pressure onto us with no outlet available. It obviously doesn't help that Coquelin and Cazorla have been out, but having a better-functioning attack could have made up for the midfield somewhat in recent games.
