Even though Giroud didn’t leave on good terms I think everyone still has a sour taste in their mouth given that Auba was the captain. I’m a big Giroud supporter compared to a lot of Arsenal fans as I think a lot of his assets are under appreciated. That said I’d take prime Auba over him any day.

I distinctly remember this sub trashing him as not good enough. Which always felt harsh but understandable in that first year. He grew into an absolute machine though.

He was not, he wasn’t even the highest of that calendar year. Nacho was only about €10.00m according to transfermarkt.

I thought Havertz was a clear yellow until you slow it down and see him make contact with the leading foot as well. Couldn’t complain about a red really. That said Bruno should be a clear red made even worse with context. They just had a bust up and he missed a two footed challenge immediately before the elbow. Don’t know if Jorgi said something or because he was the captain but Bruno seemed to have it out for him.
