It's been Iwobi really coming up with the goods.

Giroud is a problem player. But just as you argue shooting isn't Ozil's thing, Giroud it more suited to a direct game. As one or the Arsenal Fan TV guys said, we weren't putting in crosses for him until he went off. Also, I hoped a player like Ozil could at least get him some extra goals but we're looking at our lowest goal scoring tally in ages. Something's amiss.
Ozil is our highest scoring midfielder this season, of course he gets more goals but it seems absurd to single him out when many of our other midfielders have been grossly underperforming in that area.
