<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/olivier-giroud" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivier Giroud</a> has played nine games for LAFC and scored only one goal, and while by no means is it time to panic, fans of LAFC are hoping Giroud shows his true quality when it really matters: the MLS Cup playoffs. 



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-fc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LAFC</a> stands a huge chance of qualifying for the postseason, and it is when the team will be hoping the World Cup winner truly explodes. 



In a recent interview with The Guardian, the 37-year-old shared his first impressions of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLS</a>, his new lifestyle, and the travel in the United States to get from game to game.



<h2>Olivier Giroud on MLS</h2>



“There’s so much different here, but I love the lifestyle,” Giroud stated in the interview with The Guardian. “My kids have the opportunity to play football and go swimming after school. I’m lucky enough to have a swimming pool at home, and I put together some goals so they can play football. They really enjoy their life, and so do I. I’m very sociable. I like to meet people. I already have a few friends living in LA, so therefore the adaptation was quite quick. Plus, I have some ‘Frenchies,’ some guys who can speak French.”



One of the big reasons Giroud joined MLS was after talking to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/zlatan-ibrahimovic" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Zlatan Ibrahimović</a>, a former player who, at times, talked down about MLS to maintain his public persona, but behind the scenes has been a sort of ambassador for the league.



“When I told (Zlatan) that I wanted to play for LAFC, he told me, ‘In MLS, you will enjoy it.’ It’s a good championship for strikers because sometimes there are more open spaces, and you can have more chances to score goals. He was happy for me because he really enjoyed his years in MLS.”

When it comes to the style of play in MLS, the former AC Milan striker was upbeat about where MLS stands as a good league. “To be honest with you, I’ve been impressed by the intensity in the game,” Giroud said. “There’s a difference with Europe tactically because the teams are playing to score goals. There is really this desire to always go forward and score goals. It’s nice for strikers and for the fans. And there’s quality. There are great players.”

Like all new players, especially those that come from Europe, MLS can be intimidating when it comes to traveling. Giroud noted that, “Here, I’ve already done 20 hours of flight in a month. So it’s important to be even more professional in your recovery—sleeping well, eating well, and doing the treatments you need to be fit.”

Qatar 2022: Who has the most World Cup goals for France?

Qatar 2022: Who has the most World Cup goals for France? - Bolavip US

Prior to the start of the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/world-cup-2022-simulator" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Qatar 2022 World Cup</a>,<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Messi-doesnt-scare-us-France-player-challenges-Argentinas-star-before-World-Cup-final-20221216-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">France</a> were definitely the team facing the most amount of absences because of injury or illness. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/qatar-2022-how-long-will-karim-benzema-be-out-20221119-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Karim Benzema</a>, N’Golo Kante, Paul Pogba,Christopher Nkunku or Presnel Kimpembe. Whenthe tournament started,Lucas Hernandezjoined that list with a right knee injury in the opener with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Qatar-2022-What-is-Australias-current-FIFA-ranking-20221130-0031.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Australia</a>.
Furthermore, just before the semifinal against Morocco, amysterious virus producing flu symptoms hit very important players such asAdrien RabiotandDayot Upamecano. None of them played that match. After clinching a ticket to the final, Kingsley Coman, Raphael Varane and Ibrahima Konate got the virus too. Incredibly,Theo Hernandez(left knee) andAurelien Tchouameni(hip) also had injuries.
However, in the begininning of the last training session, Didier Deschamps had every player at his disposal. Finally, everyone was healthy. A few minutes later, in a shocking development, the word spread out. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Qatar-2022-Olivier-Giroud-makes-history-with-an-all-time-record-for-France-20221204-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olivier Giroud</a> suffered another injury in that practice leaving him in doubt for the final.
<h2>Why is Olivier Giroud in doubt for the World Cup final?</h2>
After that last training session before the final, a report from prestigious L’Equipe said that Olivier Giroud had knee pain because of a hit during practice. Inthe Qatar 2022 World Cup, Giroud became the top-scorer in France’s history and is a serious candidate to win the Golden Boot and the Golden Ball.
Considering this scenario, many reports from France’s base camp warned that Didier Deschamps already tried a tactical alternative.He used almost the same starting lineup that won againstEnglandin the quarterfinals, but with one major change.Olivier Giroudout,Marcus Thuramin on the left side andKylian Mbappetaking Giroud’s spot as center forward.
Though Olivier Giroud has not been oficially ruled out of the final, Didier Deschamps had his players ready for the next man up scenario with Marcus Thuram. In an uphill battle against injuries, France might have to face one more challenge if they want the trophy against Argentina.

France won Group D in Qatar 2022 and then, in the knockout stages, managed to survive with victories against Poland, England and Morocco. In a big difference with Argentina, the French squad haven’t needed extra time or a penaty shootout to advance at any round.
During this run towards the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Argentina-vs.-France-Date-Time-TV-channel-to-watch-Qatar-2022-FIFA-World-Cup-final-in-the-US-20221214-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Cup final</a>, there are names who have been fundamental as starters. For example, Kylian Mbappe, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Qatar-2022-Olivier-Giroud-makes-history-with-an-all-time-record-for-France-20221204-0023.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olivier Giroud</a>, Ousmane Dembele, Raphael Varane, Hugo Lloris or Aurelien Tchouameni. However, in a very shocking turn of events, Didier Deschamps prepares a huge surprise in which one of those players might not begin the final.
<h2>What is France’s tactical plan against Argentina?</h2>
The first thing you need to know is that Didier Deschamps has all the players at his disposal. This Saturday, one day before the final, there were no absences in practice. Dayot Upamecano, Adrien Rabiot, Kingsley Coman, Raphael VaraneandIbrahima Konate are finally virus free (flu symptoms).
Furthermore,Theo Hernandez(left knee) andAurelien Tchouameni(hip) were also back. Considering this scenario, in the last training session for France, Didier Deschamps tried a shockingmove. Olivier Giroud in the bench.
According to Fabrice Hawkins of RMC Sport, with information about the evening set-up for France, Didier Deschamps used almost the same starting lineup that won against England in the quarterfinals, but with one major twist. Oliver Giroud out, Marcus Thuram in on the left side and Kylian Mbappe taking the Giroud’s spot as center forward.
While this is not a confirmed lineup for the final, it could be indeed a huge tactical change to surpriseArgentina. The other doubt for Deschamps might be Ibrahima Konate or Dayot Upamecano as the partner for RaphaelVarane on defense. Konate had a great semifinal after Upamecano was out with the virus.

Qatar 2022: Olivier Giroud makes history with an all-time record for France

Qatar 2022: Olivier Giroud makes history with an all-time record for France - Bolavip US

Even though they’ve recently tasted continental success in a thrilling <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/chelsea-beat-man-city-and-claim-champions-league-title-funniest-memes-and-reactions-20210529-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UEFA Champions League final</a> over <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/manchester-city-t74" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester City</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/chelsea-t200" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chelsea</a> are reportedly looking forward to strengthening their team for the next season, in which they’ll have multiple challenges to face.
Not only the Blues would increase their transfer budget and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/chelsea-to-allow-thomas-tuchel-to-spend-over-200-million-potential-signings-for-next-season-20210531-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allow Thomas Tuchel to spend over $200 million</a> this summer, but they might also get rid of many players to make room for the new arrivals. According toDaily Mail, up to eleven names would be leavingStamford Bridge in the next few months.
With Fikayo Tomori set to be the first one to leave, as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/ac-milan-t27122" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AC Milan</a> would trigger the buy optionafter having him on loan since January, the likes of Tiemoue Bakayoko, Davide Zappacosta, and maybe Ruben Loftus-Cheek, could follow his steps. Moreover, three big-name players are expected to see the exit as well.
<h2>Tammy Abraham</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">

</div>
The 23-year-old striker hasn’t seen the field very much since Tuchel’s arrival and it seems clear that his time at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/how-many-titles-do-chelsea-have-20210527-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chelsea</a> would be over. The homegrown player has lost the pivotal role he played in Frank Lampard‘s system and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/chelsea-romelu-lukaku-is-on-target-and-inter-would-receive-a-huge-transfer-fee-premier-league-20210429-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">with the Blues reportedly keen on signing Romelu Lukaku</a>, he might have to consider a new destination.
He won’t be lacking in offers, as Aston Villa would be eager to have him back – he spent the 2018/19 season with them on loan – and West Ham also appears to be a potential suitor. However, it’s uncertain if they would satisfy his $44 million market value.
<h2>Olivier Giroud</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Olivier Giroud" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Olivier Giroud" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210602_BUS_171575_olivier_giroud.jpg_22993414_84791fc7.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Giroud’s contract expires this summer and Chelsea might not offer him a renewal (Getty). </figcaption></figure>
</div>
The veteran center forward’s contract runs out this summer and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-champions-league-all-time-winners-list-by-year-20210526-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AC Milan</a> havereportedly approached him. Olivier Giroud struggled to earna place among Chelsea’s starting eleven since he joined them in 2018, but he proved to be a useful asset whenever he was given minutes.
However, with 34 years of age, he wouldn’t be part of Tuchel’s ambitious plans but the Rossoneri could provide him a great opportunity to play <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Champions League</a> soccer next season. Giroud might also receive more offers soon, as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Premier League</a> clubs could have him on the radar.
<h2>Ross Barkley</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" alt="Ross Barkley" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Ross Barkley" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210602_BUS_171575_ross_barkley.jpg_22993414_99cb5610.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Ross Barkley wouldn’t have much room in Chelsea’s squad (Getty). </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Former Everton‘s exciting midfielder struggled to live up to the expectations at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/teams-with-most-uefa-champions-league-titles-of-all-time-20201021-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chelsea</a>, who spent around $18 million for him in 2018. Barkley still has two more years of contract with the Blues, but he wouldn’t stand a chance with all the options Tuchel now has in his position.
Besides, new arrivals would set aside him even more. He spent last season with Aston Villa on loan and certainly found the playing minutes he was looking for. According to the Daily Mail, West Ham might consider making a loan move for him but Chelsea would prefer to sell.
