But he didn’t tell me if he will be back. It would be a great joy to play with him,” Giroud told French sports newspaper L’Equipe.Wenger’s more immediate concern is his side’s visit to Goodison Park to face Everton, where they will attempt to return to winning form after the disappointment of the weekend’s scoreless draw at Aston Villa.The manager’s decision to replace the in-form Giroud with defensive midfielder Francis Coquelin late on provoked an angry reaction from some travelling supporters.Giroud will return to the starting line-up at Everton, where he will hope to maintain the steady improvement he has shown in recent weeks after a frustrating start to his season.“I have to improve my statistics again and again. I have been patient and worked,” he said.
