Giroud THE BEAST
By JorisFifa20, 21-03-2021

From the moment I saw this Giroud card I knew I had to unlock him, I grinded Managerial Masterpiece with pleasure and I started to play with Giroud. I got to admit I unlocked him because I thought a Giroud card with pace was just fun. I played him with an engine in a 4-2-3-1 at striker because I wanted all the focus on him and he absolutely destroyed defences. He's not too quick but when he is through nobody is going to catch up with him because he just smacks everyone away who dares to come close. You can also throw a cross on him and you're almost sure that he's going to create a chance with his 6'4" (193 cm) and 89 jumping. Although you would think heading is his strongest benefit (which is really good too, he even scored a few corner kicks), he scored some absolute bangers like long shots but also a sick mid-air volley. His dribbling is okay and his 4* skillmoves really helps in some situations but I wouldn't go on a too optimistic dribbling run with him. All I can say is if you are doubting to unlock him, you should really do it. I played him in 13 rivals games and he managed to score 27 which is an average of 2.08 goals per game.

Pace: he feels quite quick in-game


Shooting: absolutely stunning sometimes


Jumping: in combination with is length is deadly


Strength: never seen such a strong striker, could throw Mike Tyson off the ball


Agility and balance: you would expect him clunky with his length but is quite agile


4* SM



Dribbling: can do a dribble , but don't expect too much


Passing: He's not going to give an amazing long ball, he rather receives


3* WF: sometimes inconsistent with his right but can score 1 on 1's

Olivier Giroud review

So I packed this guy in a gold pack from my squad battles rewards, and he fit right into my team, linking with Harry Kane up front. I tried him for a few games and let me tell you he was the best striker for me I've used this year. Earlier this year I packed mid R9 and I used him but he was terrible, so I sold him and made an insane high rated squad. You all should definetely buy this card because he is cheap and pretty hig...

Absolutely Phenomonal

This card is possibly the best striker I have EVER used on any FIFA game. Having played FIFA for well over a decade my previous favourite was Ibrahimovic Flashback. However this Giroud card is unlike any player I have ever used.Do not allow the somewhat average balance stats to put you off using this card. If he was on the market I truly believe it's at least a 500k card. This card can be...
