Olivier Giroud


He has lifted the trophy on four different occasions with the two clubs that will lockhorns on the first of August and have shared similar moments with the current Arsenal Manager and few current players.

Giroud and Arteta will no doubt share a warm embrace on Saturday evening. The FA Cup is a competition they both have a shared history in.

Arteta was Arsenal captain when they won it in 2014, with Giroud up front. The Frenchman went on to win it again in 2015 and 2017 with the Gunners.Then he won it again in 2018 with Chelsea.

With four behind him, Giroud is on the verge of becoming a five-time FA Cup winner. "I really think that God wanted me to stay at Chelsea," Giroud said recently of being refused permission to go in January. "The manager told me that he couldn't let me leave."
