yes I am being serious. He did that in the 1st half as well from a cross he completley miscued but maybe it was to high for him. Giroud reminds me of berbatov at man utd, good stats signing to new team but just doesn't cut it or fit the style of play.

hafijur, what you expect more from a striker. He scored 2 goals today and was our best defender at set pieces.

Infostrada Sports tweets: "Arsenal have missed five of their last 10 Premier League penalties for a 50% conversion rate. The average league-wide conversion rate is 75%"
...........................
Man utd record this season is more shocking lol. We don't even score rebounds when we miss.

Giroud had a better work rate than RVP at Arsenal. He worked hard offensively and defensively. We should give the guy a break

Giroud was very good overall. Great headerer, one of the best in the league. Still needs to improve his touch and finshing though. He only scored that second goal because he missed a sitter, and his touch seems to keep bobbling around and the ball goes 5 foot up in the air.

He did ok but at the end of the day he should take the chances he has. Look at fulham goal in 1st half header. That was a really hard chance and it went in. Giroud needs to work on timing.

I personally think a draw was a fair result though.

are you giroud's spokesman gunnerthru

I am not 8bit. I discuss with mate hafijur who criticise him for not being clinical.

"arsenal need to buy huntelaar and goetze."

If you are at it, why not Messi and Ronaldo, too?

Our defence cost us 3 points.

So did Arteta

Andy, that is what I am talking about.

Arsenal sell there best players, why not reinvest to get top 4. You did a late surge in august last year buying players. I think buying one or two players will make a massive difference to this arsenal team. Arsenal overachieved last season. This season they lost the main part of the team in song and van persie from previous season. They need to buy before its to late and tottenham or everton get that 4th spot.

you said the defence cost you the 3 points though. Arteta cost me 135 quid

hafijur, we are in a mess. We need more than only 2 new players in.

Andy

You mean Arteta

2 players can make a difference big time though. There are a lot of decent players at arsenal.

I look at midfield and arsenal apart from diaby have no real enforcer. Arsenal don't really have a lethal striker and arsenal strength has always been scoring.

Andy just hates the fact he's not a very good predictor

I predicted arsenal to win 3-2 on super 6.

Robbie Fowler, BBC Final Score

"I'm surprised Giroud didn't take Arsenal's penalty, with a chance to get a hat-trick in the last minute. You need to have a little bottle, and that suggests to me he hasn't got it.

Rooney's missed a million penalties, he is the world's biggest bottler from the spot. That's not even wumming, that's just a fact.

What the feck does Fowler know? It could be that Wenger said Arteta should take it

Half United's team have missed one this season, it happens.

Giroud bottled a pen in the deciding game for Montpellier last year too and made Camara take it who then missed it.
