Antoine Griezmann

I like his attitude he runs and works for the team but he is beyond awfull when there is not much space to exploit. He has zero technique to dribble past someone and he is not the fastest one so he cant play as a winger. He has not the right instincts to play as a striker either.

Best attacking player on park first half when Barca got ball up park.

what park is that? central park?

i don't get what your measure is when making such statement. he didn't produce shit. 0 shots on target.

vinicius also ran a lot in the first half but was shit in front of goal. was he better or worse than griezmann?

Stop this SS nonsense. Only a clown club will sign Griezmann who plays similar position as Messi but cannot even dribble and has zero striker instinct who skies shots so close to goal. He scored ONE tap-in against Napoli and somehow that's so impressive for a calibre of somewhat clad in Blaugrana, and suddenly even better and even more clutch than Suarez?

He needs to go immediately if not we will be stuck in this limited attack like how Madrid suffers with Benzema(thinking he can replace CR7 as a main striker).

His salary is so high getting rid of him is near impossible. The only club he could go to is PSG or Man city. He could maybe work at PSG with Icardi and him in a duo. But him going there inevitably means Neymar probably comes our way.

Barca has very low standards for away CL goal. Griezmann is a huge hero scoring away. Suarez hasn't scored one in few years.

This is exactly the mindset of Barca fans who stooped to mediocrity. This reminds me of EV fans of saying we broke the curse of not scoring or winning at Real Sociedad's ground, and when Ev broke that record he automatically becomes a greater manager than Enrique or Pep. This sort of mental gymnastics is trying every means and exaggerating a single match to defend the person they support. In any case, Griezmann skies the shot against Madrid once again like in many matches before and hasnt shown to be reliable. I know Griez fans will try to spin it and say this match doesnt matter, well it does, we now fall behind Madrid and he has never shown to be clutch in any way at all. Now again, this is ONE away goal against Napoli, I'm curious to see how he will score in any of the later stages or even the next few La Liga matches.

He's turning out to be yet another signing that'll be judged as a failure.

We have spent some astronomical money to try to ease the pain of losing Neymar/Xavi/Inestia and we are still absolutely nowhere. I understand these players don't grow on trees but we effectively get mocked by Antoine 1 year prior on television ('La Decision') then STILL go back to sign him even tho he's exactly the type of forward we don't need. His lack of pace, 1v1 ability and constant poor decision making makes him almost like the Suarez of late.

He ain't gonna fit here unless a radical change of psychology, which won't happen either.

Nobody is a real "hero" by scoring a single goal, maybe apart from a WC final, but even that doesn't make a player better than he actually is.
Ansu Fati scored two goals in two games, when being 16, and people started to compare him to Pele. Players score goals, small ones, lucky ones, important ones, but the goal-scoring ability in itself is not enough, unless someone is Ronaldo, Messi or even Suarez.

Griezmann is none of them and if you compare his abilities to Coutinho, unfortunately the Brazilian wins in almost every aspect, which is a shame...
