ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

The other bizarre thing about Arsenal is that their leading goal scorer in the league is Victor Gyokuris, who has six goals.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

And number two is Trossard, who's got five goals.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

And then they have a bunch of guys on four goals.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

For years, it's been one of the cliches in football.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

Oh, you need a 20-goal season scorer up front, blah, blah, blah.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

I love the fact that they've taken this myth that people keep repeating over and over again.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

Now, you didn't buy into this myth because France, of course, won a World Cup with Stéphane Guivarch up front.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

No scoring, yeah.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

Oh, Olivier Giroud no scoring in a World Cup.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

Yeah, but Olivier Giroud was more handsome than Guivarch, so he gets away with it.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

All right, let's go to Chelsea now.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

In terms of health check, where they are...

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

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.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

How well placed do you think they are to do that?

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

They've just added some depth at the back in Amadou Sarr.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

And if you could talk a little bit about what he brings.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

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.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

It's a different dude.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

I think this is a necessary signing because Levi Colwell's injury meant that they were a person short.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: Why didn’t Chelsea attack Arsenal more?

I think if you look at the way other people have developed, Fofana, I'm sorry, his injury record speaks for itself.
