Arsenal striker Giroud sets himself goalscoring target

Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud has set himself a goalscoring target.

The France striker scored 14 times in 21 Premier League appearances last season, having missing the first three months of the campaign through injury.

“I would like to score more than last year and to get a better ratio than last year," he told Arsenal Player. “It can be between 15 and 20 goals in the Premier League. In total, more than 20 goals would be nice.

“If I succeed to reach this number, I think the main thing for me is to reach our team aims, that's most important. If we reach our targets, it means that I would have been efficient.

“I'm used to playing when I feel good. My body is good and I'm pleased with that. As long as I'm in good form and my body is in good shape, I'll try to give my best for the team and I want to play more and more games to score more and more goals."
