Welcome to The Arsenal, Olivier Giroud

[QuartzGooner]

On the other hand if RVP goes, then Giroud up top with Walcott feading off him might just be a decent little / large combination much like sid and eddie all those years ago.

Trouble is little and Large were utter shyte.

Perhaps Laurel and Hardy or Morecambe and Wise might be more suitable

A more Goonerish combination might be Cannon and Ball?

These Chamakh comparisons are nonsense. Every player is different

The point was lets hope he doesn't turn out to be another Chamakh and trust me thats an excellent point.

But you can't measure every signing to Chamakh, you pay peanuts, you get monkies.

He came for free, that in itself is a clue as Wenger refused to pay a fee for him, Giroud has cost a lot of money in Arsenal terms, again that's another clue.

He may take time to settle like Gervinho or he may hit the ground running.

I hope he´s a true OG!

I wouldn't dream of comparing every signing to Chamakh and like everyone else I am hoping that Giroud does the business. I just have reservations about some of AW's more recent transfer activity which includes Gervinho. As for AW's refusal to pay a fee for Chamakh - master tactician or just a grippy bastard. Know which one I'd go for gents

If I were you Olivier I'd be checking the small print on that contract because I'm pretty sure you didn't sign up for a club going down the toilet. At least you'll get a decent wedge before heading off to a club with ambition.

So it looks like we will start next season with the French Andy Caroll as our main striker, thank Arsene you

[manninger]

from denmark, welcome to our club.....remember, no one is bigger than the club, rvp....someone is actually wanting to play for us, rvp....

[DarylAFC]

I don't see where all these criticisms of Giroud have come from? He hasn't kicked a ball for us yet I bet these were the same people who said "Thierry who? Bloody hell, what's he doing signing this French nobody?"

Give him time before you slate him. Same with Podolski.

Hope he proves me right, I'm still slightly optimistic about next year, attacking wise anyway. I genuinely think if we sign a DM and a few defenders then we'd have a good squad

[franksav63]

I'm not looking forward to come March when all the AKB's will be saying....''but he'll come good next season'' or ''he'll do better next season'' the same possibly for Podoski, let's hope the forehead comes good this coming season as they were all saying exactly the same thing about this useless waste of space too.

Would that be the French nobody who had just scored 3 goals in the world cupfinals whilst playing as a winger?
