Get rid of Giroud ?

[The Emirates Gallactico]

No, keep him as backup. The common belief that he just isn't good for a title winning team seems to be holding weight now.

I was discussing this with Zimm earlier in the season but there's been no team that has won the Premier League without having a world class free scoring striker up front: Drogba, Rooney, RVC, Henry, Shearer, Cantona, Aguero, Van Nistelrooy, Ronaldo etc etc. I thought we would be the first team that would buck the trend but sadly it seems this isn't going to be the case. Unfortunately these type of players are a dime in a dozen and are extremely difficult to get. We had one of them but instead of taking a principled approach to the matter we decided to sell the cunt to Man United for "footballing reasons" instead of holding firm like Dortmund and Liverpool have done. Weak and spineless.

But they can be worse and they have been worse.

No they are not. Bendtner definitely has better stats than Giroud (mostly playing from the wing) and maybe a yard or two quicker. Podolski is the best finisher is the squad, he clearly deserve some chance. Sanogo is maybe shit but can't be any shitter than this. Sanogo is probably our only CF who has both speed and power to play as CF.

And Giroud has err...hhmm.. a stupid cum face

You know how it is, it's not Giroud's fault, Bendnter is sh*t, it's the refs fault and all that....

I mean, I'd rather give Podolski all of these chances Giroud's getting.

Pods might not pretend to hold the ball up which Giroud does (then loses it 10 seconds later), but he is far more efficient in front of goal.

You know how it is, chavs could only draw last night so we're all sulky and shit

Couldn't give a toss about last night, I'm more concerned about our games (Arsenal in case you wondered) and how we perform rather than how many petty fouls the ref missed and how much the press hate us and love everyone else.

Pods can't play 90 mins and the couple of occasions we've given him more than a bit part he's been anonymous. Not always the front man's fault either, there's way too much tippy tappy shite going on in the middle and between the middle and back four. Plodding stuff. It isolates forward players except when they have their back to goal to retain it for the midfield who then tap it around a bit more. Then it goes wide, Sagna hits 1 in 6 into the box, the forward man is knackered from endlessly trying to find space for a pass that never comes.

He can be a backup, but if him staying means no decent striker coming in get rid now because you can't win sh*t with such a toothless finisher.

I'd go along with that. I like Giroud, he does his best but he's not good enough to lead the line in a side with serious title pretentions.

[Xhaka Can’t]

We need someone explosive up front. We have no one like that available in the entire squad from now until the end of the season.

We'd have won the Chelsea game if we had and from what I heard we'd have won tonight too.
It's games like this which win and lose you titles.
