The Mouth Guard The mouth guard is one of the few adult gestures that is as obvious as a child's. The hand covers the mouth and the thumb is pressed against the cheek as the brain sub-consciously instructs it to try and suppress the deceitful words that are being said.

Giroud is Arsenal's top scorer with 12 goals in 24 league games this season The fans and Giroud himself made it very clear what they thought of the decision, and I agreed with them.
