Former Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud has shared his thoughts on what the club should do in the January transfer window. According to him, Chelsea need to strengthen two key areas if they want to compete better in the Premier League and Europe. Giroud said the team has talent but lacks balance and experience in crucial moments.

Giroud believes Chelsea should sign an experienced central striker who can score goals regularly and lead the attack. He explained that young forwards need guidance, and a proven goal scorer would ease pressure on the squad. The Frenchman noted that games are often decided by small chances, and Chelsea need someone who can finish calmly.

He also pointed out the need for a strong central defender. Giroud said Chelsea have conceded avoidable goals and need a defender who can organise the back line. According to him, leadership at the back is important, especially in tight matches where concentration drops.

The former Blues forward added that January signings do not need to be flashy but must be smart. He stressed that the right additions could quickly improve results and confidence. Giroud urged the club to focus on quality, experience, and mentality rather than just potential.
