TERRACE TALK: Arsenal - Olivier Giroud rescues our squeezed middle

Olivier Giroud’s late thumping header gave them a point few would say they deserved, but as badly as they played, it’s hard to escape the conclusion that this was a game from which they’d have taken nothing in previous years.
It’s not the first time this season that they’ve earned points with late goals. A Santi Cazorla penalty against Southampton back in September got them three points from that game, while Laurent Koscielny’s injury-time winner at Turf Moor was just enough for a 1-0 win over Burnley.
