“Olivier Giroud moved to Chelsea from bitter rivals Arsenal on transfer deadline day”
The new Blues striker moved to Stamford Bridge from bitter rivals Arsenal on transfer deadline day, in a merry-go-round that also saw Michy Batshuayi join Borussia Dortmund on loan and the Gunners sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
However, it was hardly a debut to remember for Giroud last night as Antonio Conte’s side were given a 4-1 humbling away at Watford.
After Tiemoue Bakayoko received two yellow cards in the first 29 minutes, Troy Deeney put the home side ahead from the penalty spot three minutes before half time.
Eden Hazard thought he had rescued a point for Chelsea when he curled home an equaliser with eight minutes to go, but the champions produced a monumental collapse and went onto concede another three goals.
Giroud came on in the 63rd minute when the Blues were 1-0 down, yet struggled to make a significant impact on the game.
