I'm sure he's available on a free in the summer as Chelsea only gave him an 18 month contract. Abit weird considering the spend £18Mil on him.
Manager clearly doesnt trust him hence he rarely plays for them which is a shame as hes miles better than Morata and at the bare minimum can bring Hazard into more dangerous positions.
You could always count on him to cause trouble in the opponent's box when an aerial ball was launched into the mixer.
You'd have to make sure your lobbed cross was 4 feet off the ground, for an Arsenal header nowadays.
He's like llorente...an ok back up striker with the odd worldy
Giroud was a very good striker at Arsenal. He is a bit older now but for me yes he was extremely underrated.
Unfortunately he doesn't really fit the modern day style of football which doesn't really give much hope to the target man
5/10
And that's being generous. Semi final goal v Southampton, brace v Southampton, goal vs Pool and that's all I can think of.
As a spurs fan I’m always nervous when he plays against us.
Thought he was injured so was annoyed to see him on the bench last night as knew he’d cause trouble once he come on.
Overall I think he is/was a good striker abit underrated
Absolutely awful striker, main job as a striker is to score goals and he never looks like getting one. Useful in the last 10 mins of a game if you've got a plan B which we don't so therefore no use to us.
Think he's scored 1 league goal this season which was a consolation vs Spurs. People keep saying he's better than Morata, both are as bad as each other. Think we've got one of the worst strike force in the league.

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.

He can't score on a regular basis otherwise we wouldn't be crying out for a goalscorer up front.
105 goals in 250 games is not WC but it is still better than half the strikers in the league.
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.
