Just watching the game. Gibbs really went to town on Giroud with his chance

Still early days I know, but it can't be helping him to settle

Can't blame Giroud for shooting, but the pass *was* on...

french fanny huh? - Well I'm thinking you're probably right.

It's not like Giroud slipped on the ball - gifting the opposition a goal, or anything.

It was a good chance, but not easy to get your foot around it when you're coming from an angle. I think Van Persie, and many other players, would have taken it round the keeper...

Somehow, though, it's this goal that I always remember with Wrighty. I don't know why, we've all seen plenty of chipped goals, but it seems to defy possibility.

By far our most infuriating player.

Haven't you seen the video in which he explains the whole thing? Perfectly simple and straightforward, as he tells it; almost too easy. That's why he doesn't really celebrate.

That's rather like Giroud's attempt last week, isn't it.
