Arsenal striker Giroud: I want to shut-up Mertesacker, Ozil - and know how!

Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud admits he has hopes of winning the World Cup with France.

Giroud helped Les Bleus reach the final of the Euros last summer.

And he stated to Le Figaro: "My ultimate dream for Les Bleus? To win the World Cup. This is the Holy Grail for a football player.

"I am so jealous of Ozil and Mertesacker in the locker room of Arsenal, they were world champions with Germany in Brazil in 2014. I want to match them so that they stop talking.

"In addition, when you win this trophy, you have it for four years, so they have time to hear you."
