Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted January 7, 2021 Subscriber Posted January 7, 2021 TBF I'd like to see Zlatan and Giroud on the same team. But, I dont think Frank should let him go, hes got enough about him to get goals for Chelsea when things are going right for them in games.
Devil Posted May 31, 2021 Posted May 31, 2021 To be honest I never rated him when he first came to England but he's been a good player over the years. He knows how to score important goals and a lot of clubs could do far worse than having him in their squad.
Cicero Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 Quote AC Milan reach an agreement to sign Olivier Giroud from Chelsea, according to @cmdotcom. They will pay €4m (£3.4m) including bonuses, on a two-year contract. Been a pleasure. Absolute professional.

Didn’t really rate him, then started to really rate him. When he left Arsenal, I think it was a bigger loss than a lot of people thought. He’s just got a winning attitude and a good work ethic - it’s led to big performances and big goals. Maybe he’s not the most prolific or the most consistent, but that doesn’t mean he’s not a good player. Even that World Cup where they won but he scored 0 goals… I thought he put in some big and important performances for France that sort of go unrecognised because he had the composure of someone who wasn’t sure if they’d farted or shat themselves each time he shit the ball that tournament. I do think it’s a bit weird to have 2 old as fuck strikers… but it’s AC Milan, age doesn’t scare them. Maldini probably doesn’t understand why more players don’t look world class at 37 like he did
Cicero Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 Model professional. Never bitched. Never moaned. When asked to perform, he delivered.
Eco Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 Good moves for both parties I'd say. I'll just mimic what others have said about this demeanor, truly comes off as a great guy with a solid head on his shoulders.
6666 Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 As long as AC Milan have players that can run beyond him and play off of him, they'll get a lot out of him. Has brilliant link up play and that is his best asset.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 Wish he spent his best years at a batter club than Arsenal of the time.
carefreeluke Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 If I were in charge, I'd probably try to keep him around as long as possible given what he can offer but if it's a question of allowing others more playing time and Giroud himself wanting it, then this move makes sense. Not someone perhaps a top team can rely on constantly throughout a season but a great option for rotation, certain tactical conditions, and for certain stretches during a season where he can still play a lot of games. Top man, he'll be remembered very fondly by Chelsea fans. He's been capable of coming straight into the team without much previous playing time and for the most part performing from the get-go.
Reluctant Striker Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 He'll be immense in Serie A. The 'long term' replacement of Zlatan.
