Five lessons from Arsenal 4-1 Newcastle: Giroud form should worry Welbeck & Bellerin a top prospect

4) Welbeck should be worried

Still, Giroud’s fine form comes at a price for some, and Danny Welbeck is the player who should be worried. While Giroud already has five goals from just nine appearances in an injury-hit campaign, the £16m signing from Manchester United only has six to his name despite playing sixteen times this season. The England international was supposedly going to benefit from leaving Old Trafford and gaining the chance to play in his preferred central striker role at the Emirates Stadium, but he clearly hasn’t won over Arsene Wenger in that position after being shifted wide to accommodate Giroud, who already looks like proving that to be a good choice by the manager.
