Big season for these players

Walcott too. Huge season for him as a footballer.

posted on 21/7/15

Walcott - needs to prove his worth. Only one 20+ goal season so far

Ramsey - needs to boss that midfield and not be a one season wonder

Giroud - needs to link up better and not be so lackadaisical

Ox - needs to improve his finishing / decision making in front of goal

Coquelin - needs to prove that the DM role is his

...basically, a big season not just for the players you mentioned but a few others...

Common thing with all these players is that they are so facking injury prone

You're right... Giroud was a bit of a stretch there...

And yes, Ozil as this is his first full season including pre-season... so he needs to show why he's Arsenal's record signing.

I hope he does, actually I expect he will. But will our attackers, namely Giroud, convert the chances he creates?

Giroud's strenghs is his link-up play on his day. You cant fault his work-rate or committment. Idiotic comment.

Of course it is but do you not think his performances can improve? His ability to take his chances? I'm far from one of the supporters to call for him to be dropped but imho he slacks off sometimes. He, like a few others, needs to take a leaf out of Sanchez's book. Linking up is ONE of his jobs on that pitch. And yes he does it well. Can you say he performs the role of striker as well? So take your "idiotic comment" and shove it up your arsé.

Of course, every player mentioned here can/must improve. Giroud is not an exception. He has mainly to work on his consistency. On his day he is brilliant, the other game he is bang average.

Yes he could score more. Compare his conversion rate with the so cold world class strikers in the PL is not too bad. If you compare his goalscoring record over last three years with Benzema's you will find out that he is not far off. And Benzema is the messiah in that regard according to some other trolls on this forum.

So what the hell was your point?!

Look, I don't actually have that much of an issue with you disputing it. I already said it was a bit of a stretch in the context of people who need to push on this season. It was your godawful attitude when you wrote it.

Obsession? Not sure you know what obsession is by following me on every thread to tell me I ruined it.

GT Ruining article after article with waffle about Giroud.

Girud's chit. Last season was his peak

posted on 21/7/15

Welbeck showing flashes of brilliance, and will surely improve eh?

Where have I heard that before...

What you are seeing, is sadly what you will always get. All the tools are in the box, but the workman has two left hands.

posted on 21/7/15

Welbeck is rubbish, yeah.

Good squad option though, can play anywhere along the front three and will always give 100%.

I've never said Danny's rubbish. In fact I was disappointed we sold him. Not because he's going to be a star. He isn't. It's just not going to happen for him now.

More because of the type of player he is, and how he brings others into the game.

He could play in a team of megastars and be the glue that holds their attack together (see us VS Madrid in Fergie's last season when he was the best player on the park including Ronnie and Wayne for one of the legs), or play in a makeshift group of misfits and making up the numbers players, and look terrible against a team from league 1 (see us vs MK Dons last season).

Danny Welbeck has the same problem Tom Cleverley did/does. They aren't star players. They aren't loved and they aren't appreciated for what they do.

But they are the players who help make other more stardust blessed players play better. They're intelligent and create space and give everything for the team. Which is exactly what gives the geniuses the space, time and clarity they need to dominate games.
