Giroud: Arsenal lacked maturity

Olivier Giroud admits a lack of maturity meant Arsenal "cracked" as the title race started to heat up.

The Gunners spent 128 days at the Premier League summit this season but they lost top spot with a 5-1 hammering at Anfield in early February and never regained it.

Arsene Wenger’s side eventually finished fourth, although they went on to win the FA Cup, and Giroud believes a number of issues contributed to their league campaign unravelling.
