Olivier Giroud (Out) | Done Deal

[Tir Na Nog]

There was never a chance of Wenger selling him this summer regardless of what he did today.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Wenger loves Giroud more than Arsenal.

 

[Sanchez11]

He wont be leaving now will he!!

 

[Kanonier]

I'd keep him but not as our starting FW. He would be a terrific backup to have. We need top quality but also depth in the bench. OG is not WC but he can give us 10-15 goals x season.

He's the Bargnani of football. @Rex Banner

I believe Newcastle were inspired by Giroud today. Thank you Giroud.

Sell the perfect sub? £20m+ too good to turn down for a pensioner?

Here he is talking about it on SSN:

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Sell him Giroud is perfect sub but he won't be staying here for upcoming years to play as a sub he won't be happy about it need to sell and the fee is really good enough.

 

[Penn_]

We'd probably be more serious about obtaining a more suitable striker if we didn't have Giroud. Wenger and his willingness to constantly reinstate him in the team is holding us back.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Also isn't OM is Giroud fav club? he will be more than happy to join them.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Get rid get rid get rid get rid get rid get rid get rid!!!!

 

[Tir Na Nog]

If Wenger stays then I can't really see this happening. He'd sell every other forward we have bar Alexis before he sells Oli unless Oli himself forces the issue.

It'd leave us arguably needed two forwards in the summer that'd cost a hefty fee. One starter and the other to basically fill the role that Giroud has had this season, and that won't be cheap.

Tho, in saying that we do have Asano coming back and Sanogo has hit some form for the Under 23's so who knows.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Hard to fill Giroud role this season. FFS...

Any decent young talent with hunger to prove him self will do.

 

[El Duderino]

I love the guy and think he's a solid squad player and wonderful when on form and if managed correctly.

But yeah, for that price, I'd take the money and run.

 

[{reed}]

20m is a laughable price for Giroud, the guy is worth 30m+ in the current market.

- If Wenger was smart, he'd take the money. Giroud is the antithesis to our forward game and it's a testament to his willpower that he's still managed to do quite well, but enough is enough IMO.

- Mavididi >>>>> those two.

 

[Garrincha]

Rather keep his 10-15 guaranteed goals if we are losing Alexis even if I dont like watching him play too much.

Its a 30-40 goal loss.

 

[rich 1990]

Would drive him there if I could drive and it wasn't across the sea.
