Back in the French championship this summer, on the Lille side, Olivier Giroud made a great start in his new colors, before marking time. Indeed, for several weeks, the top scorer in the history of the Blues has been going through a period of scarcity – he has not scored since September 25.
Despite a complicated passage, the 39-year-old striker retains the absolute confidence of his coach Bruno Genesio, who started him again this Sunday in Strasbourg (2-0 defeat of Losc) at the expense of Hamza Igamane. A choice that is debated…
For Walid Acherchour, Olivier Giroud should no longer be considered as an indisputable starter among the Mastiffs.
“There is a real problem Giroud”
“There are several problems in Lille, including that of the famous second year of Genesio, but for me there is a real Giroud problem. With all the respect I have for Olivier Giroud, for me Hamza Igamane must play and even play a lot more”estimated the journalist on RMC on Sunday evening.
And to add: “ Basically, when Giroud arrives at Losc, he must accompany Igamane, but now I have the impression that it is Igamane who accompanies Giroud and that it is he who is 24 years old (…) Giroud is obliged to play all the matches? » This is undoubtedly one of the questions that Bruno Genesio will ask himself during the international break.
