Giroud is 6'4 (or somewhere along those lines). They need to utilize his height. But you right that he's been getting mostly low crosses and when he does get the the occasional high cross they fly over his head

, he's 6'2 and he will do you . . . . .

See here's the thing though....Arsenal are never going to loft perfect crosses into the middle of the box for Giroud. We aren't a great crossing team. Jenkinson has the best cross in the squad. And our shape and movement don't lend to wing play with crosses on the end. Giroud has to adapt to Arsenal, not the other way around. And for the most part he has done that....but I will say he has cost us about 7 points so far in this young season with his terrible finishing in games where he could have been the hero with chances any competent strikers would have buried. fukk man why do Arsenal always make things so difficult. Kos is fukking cursed. I hate him so much right now. And fukk Mannone too.

Arteta's been averaging 96 passes per game this season. Must have been about 30 today. Oscar didn't let that mug breathe all afternoon.
