One can only hope!

One can only hope!

Post by SPUDMASHER »

Reported today in the French press

"Wolfsburg are keen to tempt striker Olivier Giroud, 29, away from Arsenal this summer with an extremely lucrative contract offer worth £5.5m-a-year."


Just another 5 or 6 to go and we might get a decent team!

Pretty please? Giroud doesn't fit our formation at all - Welbeck does, but he isn't a great finisher. I'd dump Giroud out of the two.

Precisely.

That's about £25K per week less than what he's on now (Let that one sink in...) :banghead:

I can't see TOF giving up on his baby. I'm surprised that Wolfsburg would even want the Lamppost after Bendtner.

To be fair to Le Lampost, he'll probably turn up to training and won't punch any kebab shop customers.
