Everyone trying to correct him, I think van dijk knows himself more than anyone else in the comments considering he’s the one playing week in week out. If he says Giroud then it’s him he is not going to lie about that.
Yeah true but at the same time people watch the games and watch players violate defenders every time they play against them. Like g nev saying Saha, fair enough but he was asked about other players ie Henry and he said he wasn’t phased by him… at the same time go watch any arsenal or barca game against United g nev was ran circles round and had his pants pulled down 😂
I always say it. 2nd top Goalscorer ever for france So slow but still scores Most underrated player in the history of the sport along with Ji Sung Park
A world class poacher with world class hold up play. After his time at Chelsea he became one of my favourite players ever, him and Hazard were a thing of beauty. So glad he gets the respect these days.
He's a pure targetman in my opinion. That's a rare profile these day yet one that make his team shine so bright. Hence why players like Mbappe, Griezmann and especially Pogba shine so much. They have that reliable big guy in the middle that receive, hold and feed.
Wenger genius once again… the more we look back we see wenger was a total genius and he really didnt have the quad a manager like him deserves. But later on we are seeing more and more why giroud stayed at arsenal for as long as he did, he had talent man and was under appreciated.
Giroud is always at the right place at the right time. He is not as fast as many strikers and he is not as skillful as many other strikers but few strikers have his genius positional understanding of where to be at the right time.
Don't push it though. He is a target man. His streghs relies elsewhere. He's not a prolific goal scorer and can't compete statistically with the likes of Immobile for example but when it comes to athletically dominating the air, he'll make any CB suffer and deflect balls towards his teammates. He's a hardworking and metally strong team player... If his positional understanding was so great, he'd be scoring regularly more than 20 goals a year: He's no pippo inzaghi but Giroud is often underrated because as a target man he brings more to the tables than goals and usually the layman only assesses a striker's level by counting the number of goals he scores...
I reckon all professional footballers had that one player they hated to play against. But as far as forwards go, Henry was probably the most feared when he was at his peak.
A lot of people thought he was going to say a more recognizable striker such as Lewandowski or Cavani since he played both before. What makes Giroud different from most World Class strikers is his weird ability for scoring decisive goals CONSISTENTLY whereby a World Class striker will score consistently in various matches but doesn't score when it really matters (typically last min goals). Chicharito and Miroslav Klose are also similar to Giroud. If you look at all the matches these guys score in its either the winning goal, last minute goal or a crappy goal that someone score.
Giroud is awesome and so was Saha and coming from Van Dijk and Neville who too is awesome, these guys really deserve a lot of respect. They tend to find a way, even when most can not see a way. Amazing!
He is scoring a lot for AC Milan this season and not just in Serie A competition the man is an animal an icon and weirdly undervalued at the same time.
In another clip they asked Henry who led this and that categories of goals or whatever... and Henry started nodding his head thinking it was about himself... it was Giroud and he was dumbfounded
Thomas Müller is the definition of a defenders kryptonite....but Giroud was always the striker people trash talked....until he scored....and scored ...and scored. A classic Striker of the Old school...
Giroud is 36 already but always work hard on pitch. Dude willingly run to help defense, pressing opponents, creating spaces and the best thing hes so clutch. So reliable in big games for Milan.
I know that loads of people call Giroud underrated now, but I was saying that while he was at Arsenal when a lot of Arsenal fans would heavily criticize him which always confused me. Don't forget that this is a guy who scored one of the best PL goals of all time with a scorpion kick against Crystal Palace.
Those who plays football even casually knows there are some players who always gets rebounds (stray balls would mostly fall at their feets), overweight players who are quite agile, players who aren't fast but when they dribble it always stays at their feet, I can go on and on. Just amazing.
Girlie is class. Has had a solid career without making too much noise. Pound for pound can match against the strongest cbs while being agile enough to score some ridiculous goals.
You could tell that the scrappy goal he scored really annoyed him... Its like playing fifa with the person that beats you constantly, but this time you almost had him in a draw or youre winning and he somehow wins 😂😂😂
