Giroud's holp up play and touch are absolutely world class. There is a reason he is starting for France.



He's improved, but he's still the third best French striker. An elite scorer and Arsenal would rape the Prem in its current state.

GREATLY improved, and his touch amazes me. I didn´t think he had that in him.

I hear ya. It´s all about regularity, I think, as obviously, talent wise, we know who should be all world (but isn´t).

They may not need to rape. Just win, baby.

I think the D is still a concern, but that midfield, and the gunpowder up front, take a lot of pressure off of them.

Beware of Citeh.

There is a reason he played ahead of Benzema and delivered. His form as a single striker is really good.

Giroud is better than Remy at linking play, though Remy is a better goalscorer. I'd start Giroud over Remy in a one striker formation. Giroud is absolutely amazing with his back to goal. His one touch play is sublime. His scoring has improved, but I think he's going to get enough chances to where he can score 20 in the league this season.
