Olivier Giroud is in line to make his Chelsea debut against Watford on Monday Night Football, but what will he bring to Antonio Conte's side?
The Frenchman sealed his £18m move from Arsenal to Chelsea on Deadline Day, watching their 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth from the stands at Stamford Bridge.
But with Alvaro Morata injured and Michy Batshuayi departed to Borussia Dortmund, attention now turns to what he can offer his new side on the pitch. Here are the key stats.
Chelsea's hunt for a tall target man was well-documented during the January transfer window, with Andy Carroll, Peter Crouch, Edin Dzeko and Ashley Barnes all said to have been considered, but Giroud is more than a match for any of them when it comes to aerial prowess.
