5 Premier League players who will look to prove their critics wrong next season

#4 Olivier Giroud

With Lacazette's arrival, Giroud will have a point to prove

Despite having become an important goalscorer for Arsenal in the past three seasons, Giroud has never been a fan-favorite at the club. And now, with a move on the horizon, he'll will be out to prove a point.

The Frenchman fell out of favour at the Emirates due to Alexis Sanchez’s usage up top, but still managed to score 12 times in the Premier League. Often criticised for being slow, Giroud will have the opportunity to prove his worth that won’t be as big as Arsenal, but the forward will have a regular presence up top.

Everton are seeing Giroud as a replacement for the departed Romelu Lukaku, with the likes of Lyon and Marseille also said to be in his pursuit.
