He won the WC starting every game for France without scoring a single goal. Didn’t even have one shot on target. I mean shite

He was an integral part of that team though. His strength is eating up space for other players to exploit, holding the ball in the final third, and if he’s going to score it’s usually with his head. Our problem is a lack of ruthless danger men to take advantage of what he provides. Ziyech will help, Sancho? helps even more. He was better with hazard around but he is in the twilight of his career.

How about Marcos Alonso today too.

Oli should start the remaining EPL matches as Michy isn’t performing. He, at the very least, gives CFC a veteran presence on a team with so much youth (not counting Willian who I hope isn’t on the squad next season).

This right here is why I wanted giroud out of all the names mentioned for Tottenham in the winter window. I didn’t think he’d come in and set the league on fire scoring goals, but he would’ve been a big presence in the middle of the field for our natural wingers to run off of and create. At the very least he would’ve been a target above 4’6” for our long ball club to aim at.

Fair play to Chelsea for not wanting to do it though.
