Arsene Wenger hails Olivier Giroud's attitude

Arsene Wenger thinks that Olivier Giroud's willingness to work hard for the team means that he can thrive in the Premier League.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes that Olivier Giroud's attitude has helped the striker enjoy a fine run of form in recent weeks.

Giroud has scored five times in as many matches, including an important strike in the Gunners' 5-2 triumph over local rivals Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

Wenger thinks that Giroud has proven his Premier League credentials with his most recent performances.

He told the club's official website: "He is a left-footed player with a strong body who is good in the air, with personality and assets.

"He works very hard for the team, but as well he can be good at link play. He's difficult to compare because it's just him.

"What I like is that he has a good attitude and a good team spirit. He is ready to put his body on the line for the team. Once you have that and his qualities, you wouldn't fix any limit for any player."

The French international goes up against his former club tomorrow night when Arsenal entertain Montpellier, looking to confirm their place in the Champions League knockout stages.
