yeah this hurts. we should have gone and got a striker. he doesn't have to be better than giroud, but maybe just as good. that isn't hard to find.

Walcott will be good for some teams, but he just disappears from matches too easily. regardless of where he is playing. so really we don't have another good option to giroud. and the for months could easily mean welbeck could be out til next year or even next season.

Whats the status of Ozil for Saturday?

I haven't watched Stoke yet this season, but generally they pack it in, and currently they are in the relegation zone. So we can expect 70% possession or so I'm guessing. Given that will Giroud start up top, or opt for Walcott again?

I'm doing a stat collection on Giroud and Walcott, because I'm bored.

Here's what I have from this season.



Some of Walcott's touch numbers are incredible. Against Chelsea, in the Charity Shield, he played 65 minutes and had 13 touches.

Giroud played 25 minutes and had 17 touches.

It's incredible how Theo can vanish from a game.
