Bendtner or Giroud: Who starts?

Between the two strikers, who do you think should start against Chelsea tonight.

For most of the season, Bendtner has been considered the outcast of the gunners squad. He was given an opportunity earlier in the the season in a league cup tie against Chelsea, but failed to impress the fans and the manager by putting up a diaaapointing performance. Another chance came, this time in the league against Hull City and boy did he grab his chance with a goal and an outstanding performance. Also, his most recent appearance which was coming off the bench against Manchester City wasn't a bad one. He scored a goal which was flagged offside.

On the other hand we have Giroud who has been playing well for Arsenal, leading the front line. But lately, his performance has been a shadow of his earlier form with disappointing performances against Napoli and Manchester City respectively. This is a player who has played over 23 games so far this season. Fatigue seems to be setting in and getting the better of him. I believe rest is needed.

So... Is it safe to say that the Danish striker, Bendtner is in better form than the French striker Giroud and therefore deserves to start???.......
