When Olivier Giroud signed on the dotted line for Chelsea in January he would have known that he had to fight for his place.

The France World Cup winner had to settle for a bit-part role under former manager Antonio Conte.

This season with Maurizio Sarri at the helm, Giroud is still playing second fiddle to Alvaro Morata.

In total, the striker, who joined the Blues from London rivals Arsenal, has started four of Chelsea's eight Premier League matches.

Since moving to Stamford Bridge, Giroud has racked up five goals and seven assists in all competitions, but this season he is yet to get off the mark, although he has contributed with four assists.

While speaking to L'Equipe on international duty, the striker insisted that he had no intentions of leaving Chelsea in the summer and has suggested that he wants to stay put for the foreseeable future.

"For me, Chelsea is the top club in England, the one that has won the most titles over the last 10 years. I am where I wanted to be. So why leave?"

The comments have sparked a reaction from some Chelsea fans on Reddit.
