Player Review

Giroud-Solid Target Man
By BuckedMeteor, 10-05-2019

I've played Giroud as somewhat of a target man hold up player. I have kinda tall goalscoring wingers like OTW Richarlison and Headliners Pepe, both of them could be strikers. I use Giroud to play the ball into and he can play it into Pepe and Richarlison to score. Not to say Giroud hasn't scored goals though, his finishing is amazing, especially his shot power. Giroud has scored quite a few goals for me. The 3-star skills I find to be personally annoying, but I don't mind the 3-star weak foot as much. He's been a really clutch player for me with some of his late goals. His pace can be frustrating at times, but in the system I play, it hasn't been a deal-breaking issue. His dribbling can feel clunky sometimes because of his low agility and balance, but again, he's not that type of player and it hasn't been a problem in my system.

P.S. I'm not able to check assists on the web app, but 15 seems about right.

Other Olivier Giroud Reviews

my version of FB IBRA

Giroud is amazing, legit like scores so many headers for me from crosses and corners and even when you shoot with him its mad. so much strength too obviously only downside is the pace but its really not that much of a problem when you put him with fast players around him, might be good with that new FUT birthday willian CAM!

Best Beginning PL #9

In a game where speedy wingers are a dime a dozen, you need a central focal point. Olivier is just that. His aerial threat and strength specialties help him win corners at the front post (META), and he doesn't get bullied off of 50/50 balls. If you just boot your goal kicks straight down the middle he will win every one of them and get you that many more possessions. Get him on his left foot in the box and its GG EZ. I refu...
