From the players that have played up top for long enough I'm pretty sure Giroud stands out as the only one that can't bag 3 in a game.
Welbeck vs Gala
Theo 3 times now
Even Sanogo got 4 in a minor game.
I don't think we have a more solid/consistent striker than Giroud but we have many that are capable of a higher level than Giroud can ever produce for us.
I don't think we'll buy a striker but if that's the case we should try and explore our other options more. Theo and Welbz have shown capabilities on their best day superior to Giroud's best. A consistent run could improve their consistency.
Arsenal require mobility and speed in attack it's pretty traditional for the way we play. That time may have come for Theo to have a long run upfront. If he can solidify himself in this position it opens doors for Sterling and co. and could ease the need for a top striker. I love his movement he will get chances up there.
Giroud only CF not to score a hat-trick

So I conclude we dont need to buy then.

Only if Wenger is ready to fully exploit other options. If he's nrot convinced with Welbz and Theo then he should buy we just need a more suitable striker than Giroud tbh

I have no problem to bring in new players. Only top top quality is needed. Not buying for the sake of it.

You've written off quality like Benzema, Higuain and Cavani who all bring more quality than Giroud so I doubt your sincerity in that comment.
I'm suggesting we find an alternative in replacing Giroud either internally or externally whilst you disagree with Giroud's dropping

Even Jermaine Pennant scored a hattrick at Highbury in his first Premiership match.

You surely will never understand what I am saying, right?
All these mentioned playery may have more quality than Giroud. You crying after a reliable, consistent goalscorer who make the difference when it matters, right?
The three mentioned players are not. So why do you spend big money with big wages at players who won't make the difference. Just for the sake of it or what?
And I tell you something....Wenger wont spend either on these players. And I back him.
