Giroud vs Benzema

Both have similar statistics in the last 3 years. In fact, the Arsenal man edges it slightly this year, yet some fans think Benzema is the answer, constantly putting him in the league of so called "world class strikers". It's baffling the hype over the real Madrid man. I doubt he'd command such attention if he wasn't playing for them.

Giroud is a good player, who i feel can deliver if you play to his strength, however if anyone feels a need to suggest a better CF, please don't mention Benzema.

Absolutely ludicrous that GT is somehow trying to dismiss a superior CF to back Giroud.

Just says we should stick with Giroud unless Aguero or Suarez is available as if 15 CF's in the Europe wouldn't be an upgrade.

Giroud is clearly not good enough and has never proven to be elite in 3 years.

Benzema will offer movement, skill and spontaneous capabilities of scoring a goal from nothing and his link-up play is actually as good as Giroud's much famed one, regardless of current opinions he'd thrive as main man here.

Benzema is the same bracket as the our best most realistic options out there and if there's an opportunity we should be all over that.

Giroud is back up at best, simple.

I can see where GT is coming from. Benzema is a massive bottler In front of goal.

However, he is a very creative centre forward. He especially very good at linking midfield to attack. I would take Benzema over Giroud certainly.

On the other hand, Benzema and Ozil in front of goal frightens me. No bottle between them.

GT is such an idiot when it comes to Giroud and other strikers

Beyond deluded. It is so obnoxious. His man crush actually makes me cringe.

Argue properly or shut up....you moron. Would prefer if you shut up.

Argue? The said thing is, that is the best snyone will get out of people such as yourself. Arguments. You can not debate. You're an absolute moron who has no clue about football, especially (but not exclusive, of course) to matters which even partly relate to Giroud.

There's a reason EVERYONE calls you out on this pathetic obsession. It's not because everyone else is wrong and you're a revolutionary mind ahead of the curve, no it's because you're a flipping moron.

Now you'll either ignore this post, or reply in the same way you do to everyone. You're without doubt in the top 3 worst posters on our board. And that is saying A LOT!

For my views on the topic, I'd just be rehashing everything Sherriff said. 100% spot on.

Nah. GT is a good guy. He knows football. Just loses his mind when it comes to Giroud as he wants to get a creampie from him.

No, I didnt ignore the comments but you surely ignore mine and come up with the same old shiiiit every time. It's boring to hear i have a man crush on Giroud. That's not the case.

I am fed up with the same old arguments every time. I say it here again and for all time.

There are many striker in the world better than Giroud and footballwise our talentwise Benzema surely is better. Never said that otherwise or saying that OG is a world class striker that isnt replaceable.

You all want to replace Giroud because you dont like his style allthough his stats comparing to other strikers are not as bad as some made out.

I have no problem to replace Giroud. Wenger bought Welbeck to replace him. Who is playing now. Giroud and we missed him badly when he was injured.

You all want to throw millions of pounds for a striker who scores when it matters, who scores reliable in big games. Benzema, Cavani are not your men then.

Replace or bring in competition for OG.Competition is needed and brings out the best of every player. No problem. But please throw out money for someone who making a real difference when it matters.

Wenger was on the right way. Suarez a real deal not a wannabe so called world class striker.

Pathetic? You are pathetic. Throwing in names every day who arent worth it or not available. That's pathetic you clown.
