Arsene Wenger says that Olivier Giroud is under pressure to score his first Arsenal goal.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that Olivier Giroud is under increasing pressure at the club to open his Gunners account.

The Frenchman failed to get on the scoresheet during the North Londoners' 6-1 thrashing of Southampton on Saturday and is still waiting for his first goal since his £13m move from Montpellier in the summer.

The 25-year-old hasn't managed to find the back of the net in his first four games for the club, albeit starting just two of them, and Wenger says that the forward is under pressure to notch a goal.

"I felt that he is under much pressure at the moment and sometimes to get a little breather is good," Wenger told the Daily Mail.

"What I will do on Tuesday [against Montpellier in the Champions League] I honestly don't know.

"I just felt that the time has come for him to not be under too much pressure."

Arsenal remain unbeaten so far this season.
