LUK'S OUT ... new boy Lukas Podolski must wait
LUKAS PODOLSKI and Olivier Giroud will not be fit enough to start the new Premier League season for Arsenal.
The strike duo arrived for pre-season late after Euro 2012 so were not taken on the Gunners’ tour of Asia. And boss Arsene Wenger admitted: “I will have to ease them in.”
Germany’s Podolski, 27, cost £11m from Cologne and Frenchman Giroud, 25, joined from Montpellier for £12.8m.
