Olivier Giroud, another of Wenger's pet projects, doesn't have 13 for the entire season. But we can't find anyone better and Wengers supporters just accept that.
Harry Kane is 13 ahead of Giroud during that period then
Yes but Giroud had that "knock down" assist. I bet Kane doesn't have one of those.

And then he's on Pravda saying "This one reminded me of another goal, it was like Theo’s against Leicester"... or "Let me remind you that I also scored - I mean assisted, same thing really no? - against Leicester"

He is shameless!
In that infamous St James' Park dressing room photo, who's the only one holding up his shirt to show his name?!

He probably realises that most of us don't know who he is. What a complete & utter prat.
Along with Giroud's list of shameless acts, how about cheating on his wife in a hotel, on the Eve of the 5-1 defeat to Liverpool. Apparently we were all wrong to doubt him, now that he set up a goal against Norwich
It shows how bad he is that he wants glory for setting up a goal. It's about the only thing he did all match and if he had been on the end of it, he wouldn't have scored it. I can picture him now, the ball is headed down to him, and within seconds, he is on his bottom with his arms in the air protesting about a defender ruffling his hair out of place or something.
Honestly Giroud looked like Sanogo's lingering ghost all match, falling and tumbling about with less grace than paddy on st patrick's day, how he can embarrass himself to this extend is a mindfuck of a question. I mostly thought the bloke was decent although not as primary attacker, but has he just been god-awful now for so long...

Not one of our players for a long time makes me as angry as this arrogant piece of shit.
He's won the fucking football lottery being paid twice as much as he would b anywhere else and having a protected position at a far better club than he could otherwise dream of.
After no goals in 15 PL games at the business end of the season he has the fucking temerity to behave like that because he landed a free header in the vicinity of a team mate. Shows what low standards our players are held to.
I think of the shit people used to give Wiltord and then look at this bloke treated like a king by Wenger and half of our fanbase. Arrogant lazy twat.
Forget all of our other issues - no club will win the league with this bloke as their lead striker.

He must be related to Wenger in some way, cannot think any other reason he is playing for Arsenal Football Club
Just to add another point about the media's double standards, does anyone remember what happened when the United fans were hounding Moyes out in the 2013/2014 season? The line from the media, was that their fans were used to a certain level of success, and were right to want Moyes out. This was a club that had won 13 PL titles and 2 CL'S, but I didn't hear the media accuse their fans of being spoiled . In comparison, we get the 'spoiled' tag for wanting a manager out, who hasn't won a league title since 2004, and has never won the CL.
The funny thing is, I've seen Giroud interviewed on French Tv and he seems to come across as quite a decent bloke, quite friendly and humble and polite. In England, he seems to be putting on a front and trying to be a tough man when he's anything but. The problem for us, and the lucky thing for him, is that he shouldn't be anywhere near a top of the table team in a decent league. He'd be fine strolling around in the French, Austrian or Belgian leagues, scoring 15 mis-hit goals a year and being paid a couple of grand a week. That's his level and playing for us just makes him look a morose, whiny prick because he's totally out of his depth.
