96 - TOTS

2.0

Underwhelming

By Barnesy93, 25-08-2020

Packed Griezmann in a Guaranteed La Liga TOTTSF pack, and was hugely excited to try him out after searching for a way to merge TOTSSF Ben Yedder and SH Sissoko into my existing La Liga team with full chem.

To give you an idea of the level I'm at, I usually hover around Gold 3 in WL when I play, and I usually sit around Div 5 or 6 throughout the week, so I'm by no means a FIFA expert. That being said, I found Griezmann to be massively underwhelming no matter the opponent - in 14 games he has scored 3 and assisted 3 (in comparison my SH Vinicius has played 34, scored 25 and assisted 21). I even found him being pushed off the ball by a 49 rated right back on numerous occasions in Squad Battles - again I'm no superstar, but considering I won that game 9-0 Griezmann was completely ineffective.

Despite his pace stats he never seems to storm past anyone like some players with similar stats (Ben Yedder, Vinicius, Perisic), which I think is down to his relatively low strength rating (even with a Hawk on him). I play him as a LW in a 4-2-4 with Stay Forward and Play Wide, so he should always have the energy to get in behind, but quite simply doesn't.

Linkability is obviously a massive plus with him - if you have Mendy, Benzema or even Lenglet there are loads of ways to fit him into your team. If he wasn't untradeable though, I'd 100% be selling him for the 230k he's currently going for.

Linkability with the likes Mendy and Benzema. Good hybrid links too.
Decent left foot
May be better central from reading other reviews - awful on the wing though
Really struggling here... nice haircut?!

Has the strength of a toddler.
Has the weak foot of an amputee.
Struggles to get out of the pocket of a 49-rated right back.

Welcome to GRIEZLAND

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:...

A Real Gamechanger

I was really sceptical before trying Griezmann as it meant splashing all of my coins on him and usually I put pressure on them to perform in game and when they aren't an 11/10 I get peed off but this man really lived up to expectation. I decided at the last minute to change my team back to a 4231 and play Griezmann at CAM and what a good decision it was. He feels so slick on the ball and his balance and agility really are t...

Undeserved? Who Cares?

So I basically purged my club of all LaLiga rares doing the La Liga upgrade SBC. Boy was the purge worth it. I believe it was in my fifth pack that I got this magical man. You may say his inclusion in the TOTS is undeserved but that takes nothing away from the fact that the card is absolutely incredible. I played him at central CAM in a 4231 and he completely transformed my team. The pace upgrade can really be felt, he's ab...
