As the Chelsea-Real Madrid semi-final approaches, Olivier Rouyer was very critical of the Chelsea striker, whom he considers far behind Karim Benzema.
The Benzema-Giroud duel seems to have already started. While Real Madrid will face Chelsea for a place in the Champions League final, the duel between Karim Benzema and Giroud is talked about a lot. If they have not played together in the tricolor jersey since October 2015, the two men have never faced each other in their professional careers.
If their relations are not cordial, the match between the two French scorers regularly feeds the television sets, especially since the ouster of Benzema in the French team. On this subject, Olivier Rouyer, the former scorer of the Blues (17 caps, 2 goals) and now a consultant, explained that there was no possible debate.
“Giroud only lives thanks to Deschamps”
« This duel between Karim Benzema and Olivier Giroud does not excite me at all because for me, Giroud only lives thanks to Didier Deschamps, he blurted out The Channel The Team. If Deschamps is not there, Giroud may no longer be at Chelsea, he is not going to Chelsea. He is holding on because Deschamps takes him to the France team and allows him to score goals ”.
Heavy remarks against the Chelsea striker, who no longer seems to have his place in the Blues attack. “In the rest of the time, there is his acrobatic return, that’s all. Giroud no longer interests me, he has had his day, dropped the columnist. I find Benzema so superior. He is so important in Real Madrid’s game that for me there isn’t a single second photo. So that doesn’t interest me, ”added the consultant.
