While Giroud isn't a world class striker, his goal scoring record for both Arsenal and France are pretty decent, France especially he's been very good. I actually think that's one of the things Deschamps gets right, his affinity for Gignac is a bit more odd considering the other striking options off the bench. Lacazette is a decent add, but swapping him in while losing Sanchez is at best a wash. And considering the prices the last few years, it's a decent price to pay for one of the only guys to score 20+ the last four years in the big five leagues, inflated by penalties or not.
