Giroud

It's been a year since he moved. What's your verdict of him overall?

As an Arsenal fan I never understood why he was rated (if he ever was really rated by more than a small % of people). He can show nice touches and sublime finishes but apart from that he's pretty poor IMO. A bit of a nothing striker who doesn't score enough and for his size isn't particularly good at holding the ball up to bring people into play.

I like Giroud, he should have chosen West Ham instead of Chelsea to prolong his career.

The same as Arsenal. Good back up/plan B but not good enough to start

I don't think he's been a particularly good signing and I didn't understand why we signed him last Jan. We should have got Dzecko. Probably wouldn't need to be looking for a new striker now if we had.

Even Dzeko has started to drop off this season goalscoring wise but yeah would probably be better than Giroud if we could squeeze even 6-12 months of in form Dzeko.

Can’t really rate him out of 10. Never Been given a run in the team other than a brief spell end of last year and he played a massive role in winning us the league cup. Had he been started more this season I’d wager we’d be 6 or so points better off but all hypothetical.

Expecting GT to go down on one knee after your comment, you lucky man.
Hope you say YES

Nothing more than a bench player. Extremely lucky he's to be still playing at this level because let's be honest he should be back in the French league.

Somehow he'll get a contract from West Ham and retire on that contract.

Doesn't score enough goals to be a main striker at a good team.

He's like llorente...an ok back up striker with the odd worldy

I'm not a big fan of Giroud but come on, he is nothing like Llorente. At least, he can score on a more regular basis. His lack of speed is ultimately his weakest point.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
so what's Llorente like then...something different that I haven't spotted...?
