The other bizarre thing about Arsenal is that their leading goal scorer in the league is Victor Gyokuris, who has six goals.
And number two is Trossard, who's got five goals.
And then they have a bunch of guys on four goals.
For years, it's been one of the cliches in football.
Oh, you need a 20-goal season scorer up front, blah, blah, blah.
I love the fact that they've taken this myth that people keep repeating over and over again.
Now, you didn't buy into this myth because France, of course, won a World Cup with Stéphane Guivarch up front.
No scoring, yeah.
Oh, Olivier Giroud no scoring in a World Cup.
Yeah, but Olivier Giroud was more handsome than Guivarch, so he gets away with it.
All right, let's go to Chelsea now.
In terms of health check, where they are...
I think the goal has to be finishing the Champions League spots and obviously go as far as you can in the Champions League and I guess FA Cup.
How well placed do you think they are to do that?
They've just added some depth at the back in Amadou Sarr.
And if you could talk a little bit about what he brings.
And no, this is not Malang Sarr, who they signed a few years ago, whose name also starts with an M, has the same last name.
It's a different dude.
I think this is a necessary signing because Levi Colwell's injury meant that they were a person short.
I think if you look at the way other people have developed, Fofana, I'm sorry, his injury record speaks for itself.
