    It's simple, a striker OVERALL is judged on scoring, if he doesn't score, and doesn't score regularly in the big games, that's automatically poor.

    In fact you will hear this criteria from the strikers themselves, the world class ones at least, if they don't score, then they're not happy with themselves. Look at Theirry for example, he used to constantly go on about how he still thought he had to prove himself and do much more while he was STILL BANGING IN 30 goals and doing it all.

    Pulled their defence all over the place, nice knock downs, held up the ball well. Gave kompany a tough game, was threatening.

    But yes, he has no pace.

    LOL nice knockdowns, haha, that did really make me laugh, so that's the criteria now eh on our main centre forward in such a huge game? 'he had nice knockdowns' lollllll.

    Oh my you comparing the GREAT MAN's contributions overall, with Giroud? When Dennis was not scoring, his touches, his plays, they were MAGNIFICENT.

    But mannnnn you just compared Giroud with Bergkamp? Do you actually compare the two men and what they brought to the team?????

    Good game today. You asked questions of Man City's defense and that's good work. You were unfortunate, in some respects, not to come away with more. Keep in it Arsenal. <ok>

    It is important in the game we play, hence why Ramsey looked so good earlier in the season. Hence why without any players supporting him we struggle.

    Not exactly rocket science.

    Bergkamp - Winning mentality, vision, leadership, touch, assists, mean streak,

    Giroud - Uhhhhmmm. I suppose his haircut is interesting

    how did I compare him? The ice man was world class. Giroud is not. But there were many times bergkamp didn't score and also cost us Many games.

    Being a forward is not just about scoring was the point and your response supports that.

    The only reason we scored is BECAUSE he fucked off out of the box , because if he had been there , Flamini would have probably layed it off to him .

    Hence your profile pic?

    No need to convince us. Go with what you feel comfortable with and be proud.

    It says a lot when Flamini thinks he better get in the box and have a crack .

    Watch that goal again, it was actually Giroud who started the move on the right flank.

    Yes, because without Ramsey, Theo and Jack no-one else bothers supporting giroud, except possible pol.
