and believes he can produce for Arsenal if given the right partner. “I’ve said it many times – Giroud is very good at what he does. He’s a very good player but he needs to play with someone.“Giroud, with his back to goal, is very good; you saw the goal against Ireland when Giroud flicked on and [Antoine] Griezmann scored. He can’t turn and outpace anyone, Giroud, but in Griezmann he has a guy he can feed. It’s a great partnership. They share the workload of scoring goals.“I never doubted what he can do but I think he’s better with someone alongside him.“Everyone has always said that Arsenal need another striker but that doesn’t mean Giroud has to drop to the bench. He should play with someone because he has all the attributes. I’ve said before, I would have loved to have played with him.” In the same vein, he has urged managers to play with two strikers, “I do not understand why people are scared to play with two strikers,” Henry added. “Look at all the teams that have been successful at this tournament – France, Italy have been successful playing a 3-5-2. I think the game is going back to two strikers. “Sometimes I watch Arsenal and think it would be great to see Sanchez behind Olivier. Giroud is the perfect striker to play with a guy that runs in behind.”
