Transfer Rumour Olivier Giroud

[DownOnTheUpside]

Please please please never ever become manager of Everton Football Club. Or indeed a manager of any team at any level.

darn I wish I could unpost that cv

Don't think Arse need him even if Sanchez goes. They'll still have Lacazette, Welbeck, Iwobe, Perez and Walcott.

What a strike!

i've missed football.

All this talk about no pace is draining. Never heard so much rubbish in my life. Liverpool have an abundance of pace - where's that got them?

Some of the greatest teams that have ever graced the field have flourished with players with sublime passing and movement.

Erm. Top 4 mate.

If this isn't happening, we should try for Dzeko, he would be perfect for us.

Arsenal 1-2 Sevilla

Arsenal are beaten but they add the Emirates Cup to their trophy collection...because they've scored more goals over the two fixtures.

1 Sevilla 2 2 0 0 3 1 +2 9
2 Arsenal 2 1 0 1 6 4 +2 9
3 RB Leipzig 2 1 0 1 2 1 +1 5
4 Benfica 2 0 0 2 2 7 -5 2



hahaha what even is this trophy? points plus goals? so arsenal won on goals scored because GD and points were equal (despite sevilla winning both games and beating arsenal). A farewell trophy for olivier? *hopes*

I think Giroud loves Arsenal and living in London. It'd be great if we get him but the signals he's giving out make it unlikely.

100% correct.
There is no chance he would base himself outside the capital.

Based on what??

He can live wherever he wants as a multi millionaire in a couple of years.

 

[Chimpy Glassman]

We would concede 3 a game with that front 5.

So a Martinez style approach?

 

[ProZ]

Imagine Giroud up north getting dirt under his finger nails, nah not happening.

North/South divide for one. Bit simplistic but hey ho!
I don't know the guy from Adam, but there is just something about him, more than one or two others, that suggest he is happy where he is. Let's face it, London City Airport a few minutes away, he could be back home on French soil sipping his aperitif within a couple of hours after the final whistle.
Boulevard St. Michel, or Speke Boulevard.

Wait and see mate. From what WRD has said he fancies the move. I'm as shocked as you at that news but it would be awesome if we got him.

In truth I'm having a bit of a laugh at my own expense here.
I honestly don't know how good or bad he is as a player. All I know is that he is a bit of an enigma for Arsenal who gets a cob on when he doesn't play.
