Better Than Ronaldo: Giroud Has More Goals In 2015 Than C. Ronaldo

Olivier Giroud is having a good 2015 in front of goal for Arsenal in season. The Frenchman still receives criticism from fans of Arsenal and opposing clubs alike so to give the former Montpellier forward’s form in perspective, Olivier Giroud has banged in more goals this calendar year than current Ballon D’Or holder and three time winner of the award, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Olivier Giroud banged in a brace in Arsenal’s win over Newcastle United on the weekend, taking his tally in all competitions for Arsenal to 11 goals while Ronaldo who scored Real Madrid’s only goal in the Classico clash has only scored 10 goals in all competitions this season. Impressive right?

Olivier Giroud has started to outshine marquee signing, Alexis Sanchez as the leading goalscoring threat for Arsenal despite some people still holding the opinion that the French forward still misses too many clear-cut chances
