Jamie Vardy has pace.
And Harry Kane has pace.
Martial and Lukaku also have pace
Wenger loves pace, always has : Overmars, Anelka, Henry, Cole, Ljungberg.
Alexis Sanchez is a lightning gladiator who outspeeds defenders with his movement and quick thinking.
WHILE GIROUD IS A PLODDER.
Not hugely mobile, Giroud has solid link-up play, and scores some good goals in a quick-passing team that that creates many chances.And, to be fair, he provides a significant number of brilliant finishes in a season.
The title contenders have only 14 matches left and the transfer window has closed now.
After watching Arsenal play a 0-0 draw against Southampton at home, and seen the way Jamie Vardy scored his two goals against Liverpool, I’ve reached a predictable conclusion.
Drop Giroud to the bench, play Sanchez up top.
If you’re not winning, bring Giroud on for 20 minutes.
The star who won the Copa America for Chile is Arsenal’s most determined player, their most inventive player, and the bravest warrior in their squad.
And Sanchez is Arsenal’s best finisher by a country kilometre.
If they gave him the chance to be Vardy, he could win them the title.
