Theo Walcott deserves a place at Arsenal, Oliver Giroud says


Arsenal striker Oliver Giroud has no complaints about Theo Walcott keeping him out of the starting role. Walcott has been preferred as a central striker for the Gunners in recent weeks and has seven goals in his last nine games for club and country.
"At Arsenal, I am in competition with Theo for the striker position,
but he is doing well at the moment so there is no reason to change. Whether it was at Tours, Montpellier or Arsenal, I have never experienced a situation like this, I have often played from the start. I need to take positives and to harden myself mentally. It is something new for me. I was in [Walcott's] place in previous seasons at Arsenal. I imagine what he must have been thinking. But I feel that the coach believes in me. It has been for several matches now that I have played less, that is for sure, but I do not need to be worri," Sky Sports quotes Giroud.

The French man scored two goal's in his side friendly win against Denmark on Sunday.
