'This is what people like Graeme Souness don’t understand. He’s so integral to the team, he’s integral to what players like Mbappe and Dembele do.'
Date published: Wednesday 7th December 2022 3:30 -Arsenal legend Ian Wright thinks Graeme Souness was “so disrespectful” to Olivier Giroud after he broke France’s all-time goalscoring record.
He has won the World Cup, Champions League, Europa League, Ligue 1 and Serie A as well as other trophies in his career and often doesn’t get the credit he deserves. “The goalscoring record again… Apart from Benzema being out, the other [reason is because of] the amount of games the French team play in all these daft competitions.
“[But] I don’t think he’d get a look-in at this World Cup if Benzema had been here. He’s had a large slice of luck in his career.” “This guy was in the third tier of French football at 21. Arsene Wenger has said Giroud has had to earn every single thing he’s done to this point.
