Player Review

I WANTED T0 POINT OUT AT FIRST, I AM NOT A GRIEZMANN FAN.

I am writing this review after using Aguero, Auba, Son, Suarez, POTM Vardy and Lacazette.

I am just amazed at the hidden gems in this card, because oh boy !!! his card stats definitely DONT do justice to him in game.

I was lucky enough to pick up a Hunter chem Griezman, with acceleration 92 and sprint speed. So let me start with his:

PACE:

I have used 90+ PACE strikers before him.

Vardy, who was magnificient for me. With 92 pace, Vardy felt just that; quick as f**k.

Auba with 94 PACE left defenses in the dirt.

Now Griezmann with 92 pace, is a whole different story !!! Why? i am guessing it has to do with his dribbling stats that the others 2 don't have. 90 agility, 90 ball control. 88 dribbling, just adds another dimension to his speed. He not only felt faster than the others, but he felt smooth fast. take whatever meaning you can out of that, but SMOOTH FAST ! I was so surprised with his pace, it didn't add up. I have not used a Griezmann without the hunter chem boost, but with it, you get a Griezman who is demolishing defenses. who felt faster than POTM vardy and gold Auba.

DRIBBLING:

weave in weave out weave in weave out weave in weave out. Quick turns, pull backs, fake shots. Does NOT lose the ball. 4 STAR skill moves with his high rated agility, ball control & dribbling, gives you all the ammunition you need. Have had so many situations in front of goal, you know when there are just legs and bodies trying to hack the ball off you, Griezmann is suuuperb at turning with the ball, close control dribbling to set himself up for his best Stat-

SHOOTING:

OMG OMG OMG. Having bought both Griezmann and Messi together, I play Messi as RF next to him. and i am a Messi fanboy. No matter how much i have consciously tried to finish with Messi, Griezman's scoring record has dwarfed Messi's. (i know as a ST he will always be in a better position to finish) . MESSI: 34 Games- 41 goals + 22 Assists . GRIEZMANN: 34 Games- 51 goals + 16 assists. His finesse is almost like Messi's. I am certain i have scored crazier finesse goals with Griezmann than Messi. The hunter Chem gives him 95+ ratings in all shooting stats except for long shots. 99 Attacking Position, he will always be there in a scoring position. EVERYTIME. Effing FLAWLESS. no joke guys. Feels like a cheat code sometimes. the 3 STAR weak foot?? Seriously guys, not bullshitting- i have noticed the 3 star. He will almost always set himself up to shoot with the left. Not force fully, but organically. Not on purpose, but just naturally. and that is key. It's always in his stride. The other times i have shot with his right, have not noticed the weakness. Still scores 9 out of 10. Unless you attempt out of the box with the right, which to be honest, i have not had a chance to do in the 34 games i have played.

PASSING:

His passing is the reason why people love playing him as a CAM.

86 Vision and 85 short passing that's all you will ever need from him as a ST. One two's, one two's one two's. first touch pass first touch pass. blitz blitz blitz. GOALLLLLL !!!!

But as a CAM, 83 crossing, 82 long pass and 86 curve turns him into a lethal midfielder. Searing passes across the field to the wings, look closely enough, you will see the grass burn.

PHYSICAL:

Two words- PACE ABUSE. 87 stamina for a ST, tape the right trigger down!

Who says white men can't jump???

I have always felt Griezmann to be broken when it came to his jumping. 89 jumping in FIFA 20 feels just that. The 84 heading is a nice stat to have, but tbh winning headers over defenders has been really tough for me this FIFA. So i don't try that at all. But he wins ball possessions on air balls like every time. The jumping is a goos stat to have, just lob the ball from the goal kick at full power to centre field. No marks for guessing who is picking it up at half line- Griezmann, but you already knew that.

At 180k right now, he is enough to get you through the next 5-6 months. Just buy him. YOU WILL NOT REGRET !!!
