Arsenal’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Laurent-Koscielny-c21742 feels that Olivier Giroud is going to prove to be brilliant for the Gunners in the Premier League and thinks that he could be just the sort of player the team needed.
Both the French internationals are set to start for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 in the season opener against Sunderland and Koscielny feels that Giroud won’t take long, before he makes an impact on the team and the Premier League.
Prior to his move to Arsenal, he managed to score a very impressive thirty eight goals in sixty nine appearances, which goes to prove just how good he is.
When talking about the forward’s move to the North London club, Koscielny is reported to have said: "I am happy [he has joined the club] because he played very well at Montpellier"
"I played with him at Tours and he was a great player then - now he is even more confident and scores a lot of goals. I know his qualities and he will give a lot for us.”
"I know he has the physical quality to play in this league. For a striker it is [about] confidence and I am sure he is working hard to start well with Arsenal.”
"He is tall, like Marounane Chamakh and is also good with his back to goal. I think if we play with technical guys he will be happy, and in the box he is a good finisher."
The forward looked the part in the team’s pre season match against Koln. He didn’t manage to score a goal, but he seemed to be active, in the right areas at all times and even managed to test the keeper on a number of occasions.
All in all, he looked like a player who was well settled into the team. With him now developing a strong bond with his team mates, he is bound to go on and score a couple of goals for the team this coming season.
Nonetheless, it is now going to be a wait to see just how many goals he scores for the team this coming season and if can prove to be as good as Koscielny thinks he might be.
