Arsenal’s newest signing, the ex-Montpellier striker Olivier Giroud, has spoken for the first time about the move he has decided to make from the French Ligue 1 to the Premiership, saying that he couldn’t be happier after signing for the Gunners.

Giroud has been a transfer target for a long time now for Arsene Wenger, and the Frenchman managed to finally capitalize on his move for the French striker, marking the second signing of the season.

After winning the Ligue 1, the French striker has spoken about his joy for signing with the Gunners.

“I am so happy to be signing for Arsenal – it is something that represents so much for me,” Giroud is quoted as saying by the Sun.

“I’ve always dreamed of playing in the Premier League and Arsenal are a great club with many French players.”

Arsenal’s manager Arsene Wenger seems to be set to fight for the title after making two marquee signings this summer by bringing Podolski and Giroud.

How do you see the club’s line-up next season if Robin Van Persie will stay at the club? Would Giroud and the Dutch star be able to play alongside each other?

  1. I think the line up will be

    ———–(Fabinski)
    ————Sczcnesy

    (Jenikson)-(Mertersacker)–(Mbiwa)–(Santos)
    Sagna— Kozzer— Vermanlen— Gibbs

    ——-(Song)—-(Daiby/Ramsey)

    ——-Arteta— Wilshere

    –(Oxlade)—(Rosicky)– (Gervinho)

    -Walcott– V Persie— Podolski

    ———–(Afobe/Campbell)
    ————Giroud

    Need sell or release

    Alumnia FREE
    Mannone 1M Sell on Clause
    Arshivan 8M
    Squllaci RELEASE
    Denilson RELEASE
    Bednther 12M
    Chamkah 7M
    Park 2M
    Vela 6M
    Djourou 5M
    Landsbury 3M
    Watt 1M

    That’s 45M in we have spent 23M already on Giroud and Podolski

    Need another defender someone who can play across the defence providing cover for Sagna/Gibbs and back up in the center …..the likes of Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa or Vertonghen.

    If Song leaves buy MVilla he could play in the middle with Arteta and Wilshere could play off the striker gives more options/ rotation in the attack.

    1. I like your line up, but there is no way that Arteta will start over song, especially in a defensive role. it also seems as if the M’villa transfer will go through before anyone will leave. You’re prices are very accurate except i believe bendtner will be more around 8 mil, and Chamakh and Vela at 5 mil.

  2. M’villa too can’t play over song, we need Song badly 4 now! Cos I watched Spain – France match M’villa played nothing………….. I’m sure dat Arsene need him!

  3. Two strikers of high quality in the early stages of the transfer season, thank you Wenger. if van Persie stays I dont see him, Giroud and Podolski starting in the same game. I think Giroud will start in the bench, however I really do not think Van persie will stay, I would love it if were staying but I dont see it happening. Wilshere is a great player but he will not play over Song and Arteta. The midfield of Song Arteta and Rosicky worked well last season and i would love to see Wenger continuing with it this coming season. My starting eleven (if van Persie stays) would look like…
    ……………………………….Szezsney……………………
    Sagna……….Koschielny……….Vermaelen…………Gibbs
    ……………………….Arteta………..Song……………………………….
    Walcott…………………….Rosicky………………………Podolski
    …………………………..Van Persie(Giroud should RVP leave)…
