Antoine Griezmann

Worst part about him is that he tries absolutely nothing, just back and side passing all game. He seems mentally done at this point.

Griezmann symbolises the Bartomeu era perfectly. Marquee shirt sale signing with no actual clue as to how his play-style would fit the team.

There was a on pitch statistic near the end of the first half which showed 0% of our attacks came from the right side. Sums up what Griezmann brings to our attack right now.

I think playing on right isn't the problem for him. He got couple of chances and couldn't convert. He is not the player he used to be. Trincao is no better. Need to try Dembele in the position.

Not a fan of Griezmann but the amount of runs in behind he did yesterday whilst Sevilla had a high line to end up not receiving a pass must be frustrating for him.

Hi, its me..
yeh he was out on the right, i think Koeman thought messi was leaving, hence why he said Griezmann needs to play in his proper position early on after he was confirmed manager. Then messi stayed meaning we have like 3 big name players that all want to play down the middle. When there would probably be more balance if we played 2 actual wingers and a #10, and then someone in front of them who actually stays up top and doesnt drop deep all the time.

:thinking: :coffee:

He's playing worse and worse. At some point you expect him to turn the corner and pass this bad form, but it doesn't happen. :lol:

If theories about Messi dictator are true, maybe Griezz lost motivation because of Messi.

This is why:
1. Messi does what he wants, coaches need to listen to him
2. There are rumors that Messi didn't want Griezz but his pal Neymar
3. There are rumors that Messi don't like him
4. When Griezz scores, there is no bromance like between Messi-Neymar and Messi-Suarez
5. Griezz was bought instead of Neymar (Messi's wish) plus as a new No9 instead of Messi's buddy Suarez
6. The whole team plays like braindead zombies who need to pass to Messi no matter what.
So, even if Griezz makes runs, he rarely gets the ball since all passes have to go to Messi.
7. And then, when Messi gets the ball, Griezz again won't get the ball because Messi will either dribble past 3 and lose, shoot or pass to Alba (or Suarez last season)
8. On top of all of this, Griezz needs to play out of position

Griezz thought that he will sign for Fc Barcelona but he signed for Fc Messi and Fc every ball needs to be passed to Messi.

Imo, Griezz is not THAT bad.
But it is hard to shine at Fc Messi.
