Giroud gets a pretty bad rep, he's a solid striker. People ragging on him for missing the chances today are insane to think that there are any strikers not named Suarez, Ronaldo, or Messi, that would bury them. How many guys in England do you actually take over him?
He's got 8 goals versus the 3 Diego Costa has.
Arsenal are first in the league with Ramsay, Ox, Wilshere, Bellerin, Walcott, and Welbeck all missing significant time. Why are people on their case? They are in a fantastic position.
Manchester City need to desperately buy a striker in January. Aguero will come back, and Aguero will again miss time with some sort of muscle strain. And having had Bony on my FL team all year, he just won't cut it. They will probably still win the EPL, but little shot at the CL.
