Chelsea 4-1 Arsenal - 5 talking points | Europa League 2018/2019 final

#3 Olivier Giroud shows he still has something to offer

Giroud finished as the highest goalscorer in the tournament

Giroud arrived Chelsea in January 2018 to act as a backup to the misfiring Alvaro Morata but somewhat failed to improve the London side's goalscoring woes.

His rotation with Morata continued into the 2018/2019 season until the latter's departure to Atletico Madrid and despite Gonzalo Higuain's arrival, the Argentine's struggles in front of goal meant that Giroud still got playing minutes.

However, despite this, many Chelsea fans felt he had not done enough to warrant further his stay upon the expiration of his contract in June, but the decision to give him an extension caught many by surprise.

While he might not have been proficient in the league, the World Cup winner has flourished in the Europa League, scoring 10 goals to help Chelsea to the final.

In the showpiece event, the 32-year-old came up against his former side and showed no emotional attachments, scoring a goal and grabbing an assist (although he refused to celebrate his goal).

His strike took him one clear of Luka Jovic to make him the outright highest goalscorer of the 2018/2019 Europa League and remind everyone that he is not quite finished at the top level yet.
