It doesn't fucking matter as he is not able to play right, left or centre in a 4-3-3. With a pure striker upfront he might get back to Atletico form, but that space is already occupied by Messi

It does. He is now always shooting towards the goal from the left with his left, which results in easy saves.

You clearly don't get the fact that he already played on the right and he's no world beater. The man is no striker either, so we are fucked

Exactly.

It seems that in the end we fucked up with all the French players. Umtiti was gold until injury, Lenglet is good only as back-up, Dembele is an idiot and Griezmann is mainly shit.
I was against buying Griezmann because he is no striker or forward to play in 4-3-3. As a second striker or classic winger in 4-4-2 he could do a job, at another club maybe

Yes, high workrate but he should score or at least be dangerous upfront FFS.
Nor a CF nor a winger... pretty useless at the moment.
Without Suarez he better step up and start scoring or it will be critical for us.

Even though he impresses me with his work rate, I wouldn't be too sad if we used him a makeweight to sign someone else in the summer. Maybe try and tempt PSG, dangle him in front of them to try and get Mbappe in return, It would certainly be easier to convince them if they got a fellow Frenchman in return, and just as famous as the one they'd be giving to us. The only thing being he's much older, so I'd imagine we'd have pay a little money over the top to get the deal done.

They're too proud to bend over like that over money. Doesn't help that they hate us.

Usual bullshit, works hard no one can deny but does nothing attacking wise
Totally agree , offers nothing up front , would sell him.

There is still a work to be done to make him perform better but he is still my most fav forward signing since David Villa. He will bring a lot to this FC Turtlecelona.

He was on the right before on many occassions yet he struggled to even shoot, resulted in easy saves as well if you watch the games. I would say he was better on the left. He can hardly play as a number 9 either.

One major shortcoming of his is whenever there's a counter attack or a promising attack he would pass it all the way back to the defence under no pressure whatsoever. He is probably afraid to dribble and drive the ball forward, afraid to make mistakes. Offers nothing upfront. Knows his limitation and tries to overcompensate with workrate and unnecessary passing back.
We should try and sign a replacement forward, either a striker or winger. It's a must.
