Antoine Griezmann

[Joan]

I think Griezmann is the best in the market to replace Benzema. Benzena type strikers are the best imo, not now but before.

Anyone surprised PSG don't want Griezmann? Cavani is going to leave.

Come on Nasser, give us a call and let Verratti achieve his boyhood dream. Griezmann for Verratti

Griezmann is a OM fan. He literally two days ago said they're the biggest French Club and shrugged off PSG.

Not every player want to go there.

Why would you swap one of the best forwards in the world for a crabby shuffler like Verratti?

Griezmann makes sense. Offers more consistency and better link-up play by a lot compared with Suarez. Suarez has two options. Either he accepts to sit out some games, possibly even big ones, or he is sold.

He is getting older so it makes sense that he should play fewer games, but he gets over 20 league goals a year which is massive so I wouldn't so readily put him in the recycle bin. He has a great sporting and personal relationship with Messi plus scores bags of goals. No to be taken for granted.

Option 3 (most likely): Bench Dembele and play Messi, Suarez and Griezmann together.

If we don't play Dembele next season he will demand a transfer and we'll end up looking real dumb like Chelsea did with KDB and Salah.

A front trio of Messi Griezmann Coutinho would be massive. Suarez and Dembele in rotation, plus a balanced midfield with Busi, Rakitic and hopefully Arthur (summer signing would be best) would give us a squad with a lot of offensive fire power.

But with Valverde, you could field a FIFA XI Legends team and he would still manage to fuck up the tactics, going for a 1-0 win. At home. Against Alaves. And end up losing. Douchebag.

Your last sentence did not happen once all season.

Barca scored more goals than anyone in the league.

There are some fair criticisms but some of the nonsense that gets spouted is unreal.

He won the double with a squad getting slated by most on here at start of season. He has made mistakes but his season has been a success overall and more than most could have expected.

 

[Benzema10]

I'm suprised Madrid don't want him either.. i know theres a big rivalry there but a release clause means Atleti would be powerless to stop it. would be a massive improvement on Benzema

on what ?? as a player he is not even near Benz.

 

[DonAK]

Yeah he's better.

Did you just give credit to EV for the double?

Coutinho needs to play in midfield. We need someone to replace Iniesta to at least some level, If it's not Coutinho who is it? Because we got no one else..

I've been playing with a potential lineup, but it would need a lot of defensive runs from our front 2-3 (Griezmann is the only one capable of this in the lineup) - The balance seems a bit off, but the offensive part looks interesting.


This one seems more balanced, with Alena, D. Suarez as alternatives for midfield in fringe matches

Everybody stop putting Messi on RW. This isn't FIFA. We would get murdered down the right flank playing like this.

 

[xXKonan]

Messi doesn't have the work rate nor any motivation to play at RW anymore.

He wants to be in the middle and he wants to supply the forward line. It has been that way since the 2015/16 season. One of the reasons why things were a mess last season is because we didn't have a Right Wing. Rakitic and Roberto were mostly forced to play it alone on the right side and defend the massive space Messi left as he was in the middle like 95% of the time.
