Giroud 101

Olivier Giroud! A great late goal to snatch all the points against Red Star Belgrade propels Arsenal onwards and upwards and 5 points clear at the top of Group H. The match got off to a cagey start, in front of the vehement home fans who created a wall of noise. But with just 5 minutes remaining, Walcott, Wilshere and Giroud linked up in the Red Star penalty area, culminating in a fantastic overhead finish from the Frenchman to break the deadlock at the death. The teenagers played well and everyone is awarded a 101/101 including Wenger and the travelling fans.

Nelson confirmed what I already suspected - he could develop into a world class player!
Of course, he probably wont, but he deffo has potential.
The goal was indeed superb.

Wonderful wonderful away goal to leave with Red Star to browse over in their own time.

Another stunner from OG. When will people begin to respect this guy?

I would prefer a striker who gets 30 tap ins a season than Giroud who misses lots of chances, does not scare defences, is detrimental to our attack and has only managed 101 goals in 5 1/4 seasons, thats less than 20 a season on average in all competitions. I can forgive him his 4 month goal drought in 2016 but I cant forget it. It cost us a genuine shot at the title. He is not good enough and the occasional spectacular goal does not change that.
