Olivier Giroud

I think Džeko is twice-as-good shooter of the ball than Giroud is. Olivier on the other side is the best in the league when it comes to headers. And is strong on the ball as hell.

All in all, in comparison with Morata, Giroud provides a lot more strength, and somewhat better finishing ability with feet. He is not much better finisher (with feet) than Alvaro. If he was, with added brutal areal presence and heading skill, he would play every game at Arsenal. And he is not. Also, he is slow as f., probably slower than Džeko.

Džeko's finishing with feet and shooting in general is light years ahead of others two.

That's the thing, I don't much care about headers as it's just as important to score with the feet. Dzeko would probably be better in this aspect, however I am not feeling that confident Chelsea will get Dzeko so...

You can tell things have changed, years ago we would of been trying for Aubameyang with a swap for Batshuayi.....Now, Arsenal are buying Aubameyang, we are ready to ship off Michy and we get Giroud

I think Conte just want a backup striker who can actually link up because michy is basically useless in one striker system

Imagine if West fucking Ham beat us to a player. 😂😂😂

Rudy Gestede's a big lad, he plays for Boro, maybe we could get him.

I was actually very excited about the signing of Dzeko. For me in the short term we could not have gotten a better striker than Dzeko even in the summer. Giroud does not fill me with confidence though, I'd rather keep Bats honestly.

What's Nikola Zigic up to these days?

Chelsea have rejected Edin Dzeko's wage demands, €7m/sesson and now targeting Olivier Giroud. Conversations over Emerson Palmieri are ongoing. (Di Marzio) #CFC

At this point I'm actually desperate for Giroud just so the Crouch/Barnes talk doesn't return.

It would only be a loan as well.

 

 

His conversion rate is nowhere near as bad as that & don't forget, he's a winger.

 

I no am just using the point  other players need loads of chances to get a goal. Even costa used to miss for fun.

You can't expect much more when figures of £25-30m are going around

Honestly was this deal ever on the table, so many reports contradicting each other, the media surrounding chelsea transfers is terrible. Just all seems to be bollocks.

Mate id take giroud in a heartbeat I really like him as a player, hes wasted at arsenal, he would do a fantastic job here, id even prefer him over dzeko.

I'd take either as I have stated before. Edging more to Giroud, the closer we get to DD but Dzeko is the better CF long term.

Giroud on loan with an option to purchase is probably the best deal that's been mentioned.

Agree 100% aslong as crouch or carroll aint here come DD am happy. Personally for me wingbacks are our biggest problem atm. But hey thats just me

I'm with you. We are crying out for WC WB's but settling. All I can do is hope Emerson surprises us
