Where are these stats from?

Seriously?

Facts it is.

whoscored.com

5 Stars. Yet more proof of how bad Giroud is. Sell Giroud and recall Bendtner in the summer

It doesn't matter how talented he is, if he doesn't make any effort, that is just pointless. And the same goes for Arshavin. In term of raw talent, there is no doubt, but he is just a fat, lazy .

It is players with this kind of attitude that makes Hernandez look like a world class striker!

This one is better

Stats can make anyone look good. Bendtner played alot of games with a better midfield than Giroud has. You just have to watch Bendtner for 90 minutes to see he is not Arsenal quality.

Giroud will be a good squad player for us next season when we sign a top class striker

Why not compare Giroud this season to any striker in our Invincibles team if you want to make him look shít based on stats that don't make much sense?

Our 09/10 team had Cesc in it and was completely different. Still shít but different.

Giroud will be a good squad player for us next season IF we sign a top class striker

Not disagreeing by the way, just think you could demonstrate his failings in a better way

Wow, IAWT WTF?! This ain't no arshavin bashing article, mo.fo!
-----------------------------
Both are similar in my opinion.
Both talented but one doesn't work hard because he is a far too fat and lazy and the other one doesn't work hard because he thinks of himself being the next Ronaldo. At the end, it is the same results.

Giroud might not be as talented as him but you can't fault his work rate.
I prefer someone who work hard and failed rather than someone who could succeed but end up failing because he doesn't want to work hard!

It's even better when the talented player tries hard.

GT - I don't want to cry at work again.

Giroud has 10 times the talent Bendtner has, dunno why people seemed Bendtner as this wasted potential. He was always pants!

8bit knows. How long was Bendi at our club to show up?

I am not trying to make Giroud look shít. I am just showing the level of strikers we currently have at Arsenal.

As a squad player, certainly he could be decent, but he should NOT be first choice at all next season. A big name like Villa, El Shaaraway or Jovetic is necessary if we want to move to the next level.

GT, why are you agreeing with 8bit? You used to say Bendtner was good, now that I am comparing him to Giroud he is suddenly crap?

I am not trying to make Giroud look shít.

Yes you do

It's even better when the talented player tries hard.

When that does happen, you end up with players like Ronaldo and Messi.
I have no doubt that Bendtner could have made it, but his ego ruined him.
I am sure that Ronaldo and Messsi both spend more time at training and practising than Bendtner. It should, obviously be the other way around.

I thought Bendtner would be world class just down to how cocky he was, and then after years of watching realised he has no talent
