OLIVIER GIROUD has virtually no chance to overtake Alvaro Morata in the scoring charts – despite trailing the Spaniard by just six goals as he is on verge of joining Chelsea.
Morata has hit ten goals this season but has hit a dry patch and now questions are being asked about his ability at this level.

Yet Giroud, who has 73 goals in the English top flight and, with four this term, is within touching distance of Morata, is still a wild outside bet at 14/1 to outgun his potential future team-mate.
Although Giroud has shown he is more than capable of hitting a purple patch and last season he scored five goals in five games for Arsenal.

The Frenchman came off the bench last night during the Gunners’ 3-1 defeat to Swansea.
And after the shock defeat, the forward ran over to the crowd and it was speculated he was waving goodbye to the Arsenal faithful.
The Blues have been heavily linked with a number of target men and it’s believed Giroud could become their new recruit.
Sun Bets spokesman Tim Reynolds said: “Alvaro Morata has been off the boil in recent weeks but if Olivier Giroud were to arrive, we think the competition would get the best out of the Spaniard.
“Giroud has been starved of game time at Arsenal this term but if he hits another purple patch, it would be hard for Antonio Conte not to select him.
“The Frenchman has proved in the past he capable of having runs where can’t stop scoring!”
