So we're going to ignore the million misses?
The guy who made the video claimed he put in all the key passes from Özil to Giroud during that season. If this is true he scored more than he missed.
I have PTSS because of Giroud. Very insensitive that you made this thread.Probably my greatest thread on AM this

We already know the answers about Ashley Cole and Van Persie though. Everyone knew they were great.People get irritated when you bring up Auba or Guendouzi but all these years later there’s still Giroud talks. Typical of Arsenal-Mania.
A better thread would be were Cole, Vp, etc we’re we right to be harsh or we’re they wrong to leave the way they did in hindsight.

It’s much more interesting with Giroud because everyone was so certain he was sh*t but then he went on and had a pretty great career doing better than Arsenal were.
That's like saying Vermaelen was great because he went to barca and won a lot lol. It's not like giroud played better after he left.We already know the answers about Ashley Cole and Van Persie though. Everyone knew they were great.

Giroud would've been great as a nr.2 not as main striker tho
I'm saying that he coasted lots also. Obviously not Vermaelen levels. I don't think he became better after leaving us, and him winning trophies doesn't really impact that, which is the point i was makingNah its night and day, Giroud left and won the CL with Chelsea after winning the World Cup with France both as an important member of those teams, having scored 6 goals in the CL and lead the line at the WC.
Vermaelen played 1 game the whole season when Barca won the CL in 14-15 and played a total 50 or so games across 4 seasons.
Giroud directly contributed to those successes but Vermaelen was just kinda there while other people won stuff...very different.
Also won the Italian league and is now top scorer for France NT of all time, he's objectively had a fantastic career.
