Giroud out to new year with broken leg

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger confirmed to "arsenal.com" that Olivier Giroud will be out until early 2015 with a broken leg: "Giroud had surgery today from a broken tibia and he will be out for 3-4 months on the competition side. That means he will be capable to play again in the Premier League certainly at the end of December because he will be out for two months. By the time he comes back, that goes three to four months."
