Antoine Griezmann

[FCBarca]

Better Laporta will make a priority of getting rid of him and Cou in the summer, otherwise I'll be really pissed.

Let's hope

Embarrasingly enough I didn't have a very clear picture of Griezmann as a player when he arrived, despite him having played on top level for 10 years.
I looked at him as a pretty quick, good finisher who is pretty good on the ball and is used to work relentlessly in both defence and offence. I also remembered him playing more of a playmaker role way back, and so imagined he was intelligent both on and off the ball. I saw him as a late replacement for David Villa.

This was evidently very far from the truth. If he is an 'intelligent' player, it is a very different type of intelligence than what Barcelona needs.
So far, we've only sometimes seen glimpses of great technique from him in isolated situations, and he also does work very humbly - he runs a lot, even if it usually is in the wrong direction at the wrong time and in the wrong speed.

I think he is coming close to being the worst player in Barcelona in the last 15 years - he gets so much playing time and offers so little. Always in the wrong place at the wrong time, making more easy mistakes when playing simple than Dembele but at the same time offering nothing in terms of doing the "hard things". He is "good enough to be bad enough".

I guess he does play a simple tactical role in Koemans system, holding the opposing defence pinned.

He has a Damocles sword (Fati) hanging over him. He should pray that Messi leaves this summer.

Apart from his assist, invisible this game. Should have been subbed instead of Trincao.

Except running and defending he offers absolutely nothing to Barca.

Figo's curse...

 

[CatalinR10]

Arda Turan - 40 mil

Coutinho - 150 mil

Griezmann - 120 mil


All have in common the nr 7 .


CURSED.

CURSED.

So it wasnt Arda just giving up or coutinho and griezman being overrated and not really having a proper position in barca. Fuck only if we knew earlier.

Except running and defending he offers absolutely nothing to Barca.

Yeah, he tries
The problem is his running and defending is so often even a net negative for the team, because he arrives too soon or too late, and either makes the wrong decision or is too weak technically or physically.
You can see him do good and even great things sometimes, but it comes in patches, just like his beard.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

Should sell him to juve or Inter, italian league suits more for him.

 

[serghei]

He's so frustrating. It's like he's always missing something to be a great hit here. Sometimes, he puts every piece together and he's amazing. But it never lasts. It's a mystery.
