EPL: Sarri speaks on Giroud being Chelsea’s problem

Chelsea boss, Maurizio Sarri, says striker, Olivier Giroud is not a problem at the club even though the France international is currently finding it difficult to score goals for the Blues this season.

Giroud has not scored a goal for the West London club in his last ten matches in all competition this campaign.

But Sarri believes the former Arsenal star was not used to scoring a lot of goals, adding that Giroud is always very useful as a team player.

“One month ago, we were concerned about the fact the midfielders didn’t score,” Sportsmole quoted Sarri as saying ahead of Chelsea’s Premier League clash with Burnley on Sunday.

“And now in the last three matches, Barkley scored two goals and Loftus three goals so I think that if we are able to continue to play this football maybe in a month the strikers will be able to score.

“You know the characteristics of Giroud: Giroud usually is not used to scoring a lot of goals in a season but he’s always very, very useful for the team, for his team-mates.

“So Giroud is not a problem for us. And Morata in the last five matches, scored two goals.

“I think they will be able to do better but the most important thing is that the team will continue to play this football.”
