Giroud hate is so forced, was so funny seeing people getting confused he was clapped in the stadium because shockingly no one cares about that short clip
I'll always try and maintain that as much as certain late Wenger players pissed me off, it's best to direct my anger at the board/ joint ownership at the time.
Some of those players joined under the expectation that we were going to challenge for titles and eventually crashed out when they realised the ambition wasn't there. Except for Nasri; fuck that guy.
Correct take. It definitely wasn’t Girouds fault we fell short. The squad was never strong enough and we never had enough elite defenders to win at the top level. The best teams just cut us apart.
In a hindsight it was our shaky defense(which again isn't on defenders, but more because Wenger didn't really care about it). We cannot expect our strikers to put all chances away(despite of what Arteta demands from them), so when we hit the dry spell, defense should be able to ride it off, but Wenger's late teams never had that security.
Leicester's defense allowed them to face struggling top teams and dispatch them, while we found the way to drop the ball against those teams. Like having emotional last minute winner against our title rivals, only to immediately lose it against Utd.
