We’ve finally been handed some positive news on the injury front with Arsene Wenger revealing that Olivier Giroud is ahead of schedule in his recovery from injury.

Giroud was ruled out for at least four months after suffering a fractured tibia against Everton on the 23rd August, with the Frenchman not expected back again until the New Year.

However, Arsene has told French outlet BeIN Sports on Sunday night that the striker is now ahead of schedule in his rehabilitation.

Arsène Wenger on Olivier Giroud to BeIN Sports: "I think he is ahead of schedule in terms of rehabilitation."

This is excellent news as we’ve really missed Olivier in recent weeks. Danny Welbeck has done extremely well since joining from Man Utd and I think in the long-term he will certainly be our first choice striker.

But we need options up top and Giroud gives us something different against the more physical teams or from the bench, so it will be great to have him back sooner than expected.

It’s not clear exactly what his new comeback date is but hopefully we will see him in December as it would be great to have him back ahead of what will be a hectic festive period.

   Mr. Wenger should improve on his approach on big teams. Focus on winning the champions league not just participating every year.
