Intro:

Arsene Wenger talked on Friday (21 November) about the competition between Danny Welbeck and Olivier Giroud, now the latter has returned from injury.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager (on why competition for places between Danny Welbeck and Olivier Giroud).
"There is always a fight because we have a lot of offensive options. But Danny Welbeck can play in different positions up front and there is, in some games, room for both of them (to start), of course it is a fight."

SOUNDBITE: Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager (United boss Louis van Gaal said on Thursday he believed Welbeck was benefiting from an extended run of first-team matches at his new club)
"You can take every challenge in a positive way and that's what he did. I believe as well you have to understand Louis van Gaal did not have Welbeck under his orders for a long time and it's always very difficult to know the players well when you see them (for) three or four weeks. But as well, (Wayne) Rooney and (Robin) van Persie have an exceptional goalscoring record you know. In front of him he had two top quality players and goal scoring records. What he needed was a chance.

SOUNDBITE: Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager (on why Olivier Giroud is back so quickly from injury)
"Because the surgery went well. Because he had no setbacks during his rehab. And because he is a naturally solid structure. He is very solid and he eats very well and his positive mentality, Olivier. He's always positive and that helps as well."
