Giroud discusses his impressive physique and faith: “I read the Bible every day”

By Isak Möller -

Olivier Giroud spoke to the media ahead of the game between AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund this evening. Among other things, he explained how his physique is so good at the age of 37. 

The Frenchman turned 37 on Saturday and he has been an important player for Milan this season, having bagged four goals and three assists. He plays from start tonight and will be hoping to grab the birthday goal he didn’t get last time out.

Speaking to Prime, as cited by MilanNews, Giroud shared his thoughts on his physique, thanking his mom and dad. He also highlighted the importance of faith as he reads the bible every day.

On his faith…

“It helps me every day, it gives me strength. I read the Bible every day. When you don’t score you are disappointed, but for me the most important thing is to be ready, and resilient. Faith helps me to always believe in it.”

How do you get this body at 37?

“I want to thank dad and mom for my physique. It’s important to eat well and lots of it, drink water. My physique allows me to continue to dream today, to be competitive. My body is my friend and I’m careful about it.”

As said, Giroud is in the starting eleven for this one and teams up with Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao up front. It remains to be seen if the three can help JMilan find the back of the net after the struggles in the UCL opener.

    1. Yeah right.
      Is a man not free to talk about his faith any more? To you, the Bible is over rated, to Giroud, it’s not. Kaka believes in Jesus. There are players who display their faith in different ways.

          1. The bible is the most overrated book to be written!
            You either understand what I’m saying or not.
            You clearly do not. No need to get butthurt about it.

        1. He also highlighted the importance of faith as he reads the bible every day.

        2. Let me help you out…

          Giroud: I read the Bible…
          Flying Turtle: The Bible is over rated.

          Yeah, your opinion supercedes Giroud’s faith in the Bible.

          1. I really don’t understand how you cannot tell the difference between the bible (the book) amd Girouds faith..
            Are you challenged or something? Flunked English in middle school? Want me translate to your native language? Tell me what it is and I’ll do it

        3. Stop trying to be a smart Alec. You cannot separate Giroud’s faith from the Bible. It’s simple – if you don’t understand that, then you have a big problem. By the way, I do not think you have a grasp of the English language better than me.

    2. It says a lot of a person’s character when they attack the Bible for no reason. Because the Bible speaks against their sinful nature.

      “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” John 3.16

      Your life tomorrow is not guaranteed, so don’t overlook the truth in Jesus Christ.

      1. It also says a lot about a persons character when they defend a work of fiction like the bible. They indoctrinated you good.

        1. You seem indoctrinated good yourself to the idea of going against the Bible.

          But can you tell me what proof you have that the Bible is really fiction, when archeologists have uncovered real geographical sites named in the Bible, dating to accurate times within the Bible, and even to this day, there are books, and stone carvings, and scrolls outside the Bible that confirm more or less, accounts, events and people in the Bible.

          Please give me your best response, why you believe the Bible is fiction so I can point out your flawed reasoning for you.

          The Bible is the real deal. Existed before you or I and will remain in tact for generations to come.

          1. Thats cute. Indoctrinated by who?
            The day you prove to me that GoD parted the sea for moses is the say ill drop to my knees and smack my head at the earth and shout for forgiveness for my sins.
            If you only knew what i know about the catholic church you’d problably want to nuke vatican. And not just once

        2. You say in your reply:

          “The day you prove to me that GoD parted the sea for moses is the say ill drop to my knees and smack my head at the earth and shout for forgiveness for my sins”.

          So you avoid answering my question as your response. Let me make it clear, you still have not given an answer.

          All you did now is you agree you have no reason why you just mindlessly go against the Bible, because I asked you a question, and you still can’t answer a simple question.

          No one is forcing or asking you to drop to your knees and ask for forgiveness. That’s on you and God. But you strongly believe that the Bible is fiction. And I’m asking you to give me proof that the Bible is fiction.

          Let me put it this way. You don’t believe in my Bible, and I’m asking you why, you say or seem to say that you believe it is fiction, so I am asking you why do you strongly insist it is fiction. There has to be a standard of proof that convinces you the Bible is as you believe fiction, which I am here to adress with you.

          By not giving an answer, you’re making yourself weak with no explanation for what you believe in.

          Needless to say, “knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires – 2 Perer 3.3” is at hand.

          1. I believe im above having a discussion from an indoctrinated person about the bible and why its fiction. Which it is.
            A very simple expalantions your God is a bunch of BS is the omnipotence paradox. Since God is BS so is the bible. Sayonara

          2. @Flying Turtle

            Where you going? Scared to have a real talk? Where’s your proof that the Bible is fiction. Come and fight for what you really believe in and prove your point.

            To this day, the Bible has spear headed archeological findings and scientific discovery. My Bible predicted 2000 years ago that the gospel will be preached to all the parts of the earth. Today we have technology to instantly spread the gospel with the click of the button. My Bible you call overrated, has changed the lives of millions of atheist, Muslims, and other so called pagan false ideologies created by men to deceive the generations. And to date, no one can change the word of the 66 books in my Bible. It will remain as it is from the KJV to teach future generations into eternity. Evolution is made to brainwash you into thinking you came from animals, but to date scientists have no proof of evolution. It is just a theory.

  1. The Bible is the true word of God. Read your Bible and pray every day children!

    You might be a Muslim, atheist, Mormon, agnostic, jehovah witness, Hinduist, shintoist, Buddhist, or whatever pagan spiritualist, but the rules of your existence cannot escape the fact that your life is empty and pointless until you live life believing in the Almighty Creator. Jesus will return and soon every knee shall bow.
