Olivier Giroud has rejected Alan Shearer's claims that Arsenal need three new players in order to win the Premier League title this season.

Arsene Wenger's side currently sit in top spot with a two-point lead over Leicester City at the halfway stage of the campaign.

Shearer believes that Arsenal need to spend in the transfer window this month to help them become English champions, but Giroud is confident in the current squad.

"Tell me where," The Mirror quotes Giroud as saying. "Just tell me where. I will explain the opposite judgement.

"We have very good players as well on the bench, young players waiting to come in. They are very talented. I am not worried about it.

"Danny Welbeck will come back in a month and a half. Theo Walcott can play up front, Joel Campbell is doing well with his national team up front. If I am less good or get injured, we still have a solution."

Arsenal will switch their attention to the FA Cup this weekend when they take on Sunderland at the Emirates on Saturday.
