Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger is delighted for Olivier Giroud after victory over Tottenham.
Giroud struck upon his return to the starting XI on Sunday.
“I give massive respect to him," said Rudiger.
“He was always patient, he never said anything, even when his transfer didn't go through. He remained humble and worked hard. And there was also a difference when he came on against United. On Saturday he had a big impact. He is a team player and he always puts himself on the line.
“He is not only about scoring — he is always putting in the hard work and that is why I am very pleased."
