At least be fair to me; I didn't rank Dzeko last like the poll

The tide is changing and you know it.

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

Still cant believe we let go of Giroud..would've been such an awesome signing at a cheap price,much better signing than Dzeko i would say..And that dude's one handsome mofo too ,football abilities aside.Complete striker ,just what we needed.

 

[Trequartista]

Giroud a much better signing than Dzeko

Giroud a much better signing than Dzeko

15m euro transfer fee,arguably lesser wages..tell me about it..

Add to that he's just not a static poacher like Dzeko..He is very mobile,he can score and create too..I'm sure he'll have a great impact at Arsenal the coming season.

 

[Trequartista]

Dzeko had the second best goal per minute average in the BPL last season and yet people are still doubting him

Giroud is good but he's way overrated at the moment. The guy has had ONE solid season of top flight football FFS.

Dzeko >>> Giroud.

 

[Trequartista]

Dzeko >>> Giroud.

TWO solid seasons.

 

[Xperd]

I am not doubting that..Dzeko is definitely better than Giroud..

But i thought someone like Giroud would be a better fit in Conte's system imo.Which is why i wanted Van Persie here so badly but alas it wont happen.

 

[TrezJuve]

At that price, value for money, it would have been a much better buy than Dzeko and I say that even if I like Dzeko's style a lot.

 

[Trequartista]

TWO solid seasons.

His first season in Ligue 1 was meh.

My thoughts exactly..

 

[TrezJuve]

Did you even see him play?

 

[Fred]

thats unfair, it was his first season in first flight football, he made an impression.

That being said, i think its a myth that Giroud is more mobile than Dzeko, he might be more technical, has a better touch. But Dzeko is more mobile than he's given credit for imo.

Also Giroud is quite slow, that is a concern of mine, not sure how fast he'll adapt to English football.

 

[Trequartista]

Did you even see him play?

Yes. He's good but he's definitely not as good and proven as Dzeko.

Completely agreed.

 

[TrezJuve]

Giroud's still more mobile than Dzeko.

The thing with Giroud is that he has decent speed (top speed), but he has really poor acceleration so it does comes across as if he's slow.

 

[Fred]

Still, he's a huge upgrade over the Chamakhs, Bendtners and Vela's, so needless to say i'm happy with his signing.

 

[TrezJuve]

You should be!

I think he'll do well.
