communicate 2,703 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 2 minutes ago, Mana said: Giroud this season is still a Chelsea player, under contract and is collecting his wages from us. That shouldn't be the reason why he's now perma-benched until Abraham is injured. The question is who should play Giroud or michy. Giroud is pretty much a goner after next season, whereas there is a chance for michy to be here. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,213 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Inter chief held talks with Chelsea over signing Blues ace in January during London trip https://www.caughtoffside.com/2019/11/16/inter-chief-held-talks-with-chelsea-over-signing-blues-ace-in-january-during-london-trip/ It has been reported that Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio held talks with Chelsea this week over the possibility of signing Olivier Giroud in January. The 33-year-old stalwart has struggled to secure regular playing time with the Blues so far this season, as he has been limited to just six appearances across all competitions. snip Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,213 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Report: Crystal Palace must pay £5m for Olivier Giroud, plus £7m a year in wages https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2019/11/22/report-crystal-palace-must-pay-5m-for-olivier-giroud-plus-7m-a-y/ Crystal Palace must pay a fee thought to be around £5 million for Olivier Giroud and pay the Chelsea striker £7m per season, according to The Daily Mirror [November 22, page 79]. Crystal Palace are one of the clubs being credited with an interest in Giroud, as well as Marseille, Montpellier, Lyon and Inter Milan. But it is claimed that the Frenchman risks pricing himself out of a move, with Inter hesitating over his demands.  snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,213 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Chelsea risk losing this £10.8m-rated man if Lampard cannot utilise his talent – opinion Opinion| 28 November, 2019  https://90maat.com/chelsea-risk-losing-this-10-8m-rated-man-if-lampard-cannot-utilise-his-talent-opinion/ Ever since switching Arsenal for Chelsea Olivier Giroud has not been afforded the opportunities he might have wished for when arriving at Stamford Bridge. When deployed as a target man, he is a handful for defenders though sadly for him neither of his last two managers have had any interest in playing a forward in that mould. So far this season the frontman has made just one Premier League start, with a further three appearances off the bench. Unsurprisingly such scant playtime has failed to produce either a goal or an assist. Though you only need to take one look at his goal-scoring record for France to realise there is still a phenomenal player in the 33-year-old, who is not being used to his full potential. Across his last 14 competitive international fixtures, the FIFA World Cup winner has seven goals to his name. Not only are the goals important, but his link play in the centre of Kylian Mbappe and Antoine Griezmann is vital to the way Didier Deschamps attacks. The French manager has praised his strikers’ 39 goals in 97 international games, but also warned him about the dangers of being frozen out at Chelsea. Here is the dilemma Giroud faces, swallow his pride and join a side further down the table, either permanently or on loan, or face an uphill struggle for substitute minutes at Chelsea. When put like this the decision appears relatively obvious, and it is likely there would be no shortage of Premier League suitors who are currently struggling to score. snip   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats 7,147 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Don't see how the move makes sense. He will be a backup there also. He may start more than here, but their main 2 strikers are Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He loves the Europa League, lololol which is where Inter are now (biggest club by far to crash out at CL Group Stage, far better than that depleted Ajax side, sorry Ziyech lovers ) Giroud went from a club I fucking hate more than all but spuds, victimpool and manure to now, if he goes to Inter my 1st (obviously) and 2nd favourites clubs jabj24 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,819 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 A report from The Mirror has indicated that France manager Didier Deschamps has told Oliver Giroud to leave Chelsea in January if he wants to guarantee is place in the France squad next Summer. https://www.caughtoffside.com/2019/12/16/chelsea-ace-urged-to-quit-the-club-in-january-to-guarantee-his-place-at-euro-2020/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,213 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Inter looking at Petagna as alternative to Giroud: the idea https://www.calciomercato.com/en/news/inter-looking-at-petagna-as-alternative-to-giroud-the-idea-93232 Inter are still searching for backup for striker Romelu Lukaku and an alternative to Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud has been identified, according to a report from Italian media outlet Calciomercato.com today.  The report details how the Nerazzurri appreciate the need for more attacking depth in the squad and due to the risk, that the club won’t be able to secure the signature of Giroud, they have been considering alternatives. Andrea Petagna of SPAL has now been noted as a potential option.  The Nerazzurri have been discussing the player with his club, the report highlights, although due to SPAL’s precarious position in the league table they may be hesitant to lose their main striker. Inter are working out how to convince the club to lose the Italian forward, but are still hoping to secure either Petagna or Giroud in January as they look to continue the fight with Juventus for the league title this season.  snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
