Transfer Rumour Olivier Giroud

[ijjysmith]

I've thought from the very state that a move to Merseyside would be extremely unappealing to Giroud. He's living it up in the capital and probably wouldn't even be guaranteed starts in more than around 60% of our games, so why would he join us? Rooney isn't going to the sitting on the bench earning 150k a week is he?

What's wrong with Liverpool mate?

Too close to Anfield.

What's wrong with Liverpool mate?

He's a playboy* living it up in the capital city. I think most places, Liverpool included, won't come close to that for him and a lot of people! I'd prefer Liverpool myself
*may not be, but he looks like one

If that doesn't happen who else is there??

Benteke! If Sigurdsson is worth 40m so is he.

Benteke! If Sigurdsson is worth 40m so is he.

But that seems even less likely than Giroud : he doesn't want to leave Palace and they're determined not to sell him.

I don't think Palace will sell for 40 million thou

He may be living it up n London, but I think he's wanting to live it up on France's World Cup side. Hard to see that happening if he's not getting games for his club.

Ye, looking at today's prices 40million would be too little for Benteke I think.

sort it out giroud and bring the sexy to fc sexy

[Stuartisitc1878]

Robert Perez on talksh*te saying keeping Giroud is vital for Arsenals title challenge.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I think I've been open about my personal opinion in here. A club with apparent ambition of top 4, as we are told, does not sell a Romelu Lukaku for £75m and replace him with a 31 year old bench warmer from a club we are trying to displace.
He may make our squad 'better', but that should not be the determining factor alone.
We should look for better.
Maybe I'm the only one in here.

Think what Giroud brings Kit is a player for the here and now to help us push on instantly, 69 goals in 164 prem apps for Arsenal is a fantastic return as well.

I'm struggling with it mate. Should he come, and I don't see it at the minute, I'm happy to be very wrong.
