This has led to reports linking the Frenchman with a move to the likes of Marseille and even Chelsea’s London rivals West Ham.However, he told Telefoot he is determined to stay and fight for his place at Chelsea.Giroud said:“I feel like it is as if we are where we were several months ago when I was being asked the same questions before the World Cup.“Today, I am calm, happy with this World Cup title. I relativise a lot of things. “I dont need to put myself under more pressure than that. Of course, I am a competitor and I would like more playing time.“But I am in a very big club, with very big players. I am going to fight and for the moment, it is not a question about seeking a departure.“I am going to stick in there and do not count on me to give up.”His only goal for Chelsea this season came in a 1-0 win over BATE Borisov in the Europa League – and fellow struggling striker Alvaro Morata has been given the nod for most games.Giroud is having to compete with Alvaro Morata for a place in the starting XI3
