In a way it is not nice for Giroud because its not his fault Wenger is a bloody idiot but he takes the anger from irate and frustrated fans.

Giroud should not be our first choice striker .. or second for that matter, a squad member, sure why not. but whilst we have Giroud Wenger will be like "Giroud is like a new signing" and that means we are fooked for another 3 or 4 years.


and there it is, but in less words than me. I'm over this crap. wenger is such a fraud!

all my buddies are having a hearty laugh over this because they know I can't stand giroud. but at the same time, they agree and love it because we will continue to fall short because of crap like this.
cheers!

Can seesomeone bidding 30M+ in the summer for him considering the lack of centre forwards and his form this year, I'd take it and run tbh he'll be 31 in September and theirs no guarantee he can replicate this seasons form again.

Reinvest that money on a top centre forward who's younger, obviously we may need to add more money to the 30M or so we receive but it would certainly be worth it for a younger prospect with more potential in the long run.

We should not even be thinking of selling anyone who can score more than 15 goals a seasons. We need more goal scorers not fewer. We should also begin to expect that different types of strikers will start against different opposition.
Believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything.

Attitude:10/10

Work rate: 10/10

His talent may only be 5-6 out of ten but he has shown with right attitude and commitment you can maximise your talent.

He's moving in the right direction, but I'll save my comments for when we play a top 4 side and see if he's scoring then.

To note Sanchez also scored when he got minutes up front, he also has more goals for the season.

So jury's out till then.

He will be our starting striker till end of season, uncle Wenger has done it again.

We were playing some of the best football we'd played in years this season with Sanchez up front, now Wenger has reset to default as I knew he would.

So if Sanchez in Wenger's mind is not good enough for first choice then his transition is a failure and we're back to needing a WC striker, again.

Funny how Wenger is unconvinced about Sanchez even though he's currently top scorer in the league or there about's.
