Jack Wilshere and Olivier Giroud have enjoyed some memorable moments…


 

Arsenal star Jack Wilshere talked up his partnership with Olivier Giroud after the two stars combined yet again to create a memorable goal in our 1-0 win against Red Star Belgrade.

Wilshere started off the move with a sensational piece of skill to leave three defenders in his wake, and a quick one-two with Theo Walcott led to Giroud’s sensational effort.

The goal marked four years to the day that Wilshere netted that infamous strike against Norwich City at the Emirates Stadium, a goal Giroud played a huge part in with his impeccable link-up play.

And after yet another effective display from the Gunners duo, Wilshere is letting the secret behind their telepathic understanding out of the bag.

“I think he knows how I like to play and I know how he likes to play,” the 25-year-old told Arsenal Player.

“He knows that I like to pick it up and drive at the defence, and he always gives me an option when I pick the ball up.

“He seems to hold his position up well, he’s strong when he holds the ball up, and we play off each other well.”

Despite their history on the pitch together, it seems we’ll only see glimpses of this partnership in the cup competition given the depth we have in those attacking positions.

Arsene Wenger will likely deploy a front three of Alexis Sanchez, Alexandre Lacazette and Mesut Ozil in the Premier League now that Danny Welbeck is back on the treatment table.
