Absolutely Phenomonal
By Forbsy11, 20-03-2021

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 completed alongside the Ruben Neves card, giving you two quality cards.

Shooting is unreal, If you have a shot with him you will score every time. His 99 finishing, shot power and volleys make him the best ST in game. 10/10


Positioning is also great, with 97 attack positioning he gets stuck in and is everywhere I need him to be 10/10


Pace is brilliant, with a hunter this card has 93 pace and 96 acceleration. 9/10


Height being 6" 4 many will avoid this card deeming it 'clunky' before they use him, that's their loss. With 99 heading accuracy and 89 jumping this card is formidable in the air 10/10


Strength 96 Strength, makes him one of the strongest cards in the game, perfect for holding play up allowing wingers to overlap. 10/10


Work rates High/medium work rates are perfect for all strikers.

Stamina with this card having 81 stamina it is somewhat not ideal if you was playing him for a full 90 minutes, possibly look to sub off around the 70 minute mark. 7/10


Dribbling the 80 dribbling with a hunter provides an average statistic in this department, however personally I find it unnoticeable, I can still dribble fine and work an opening 7/10


Passing as normal with most strikers, they can't have it all. His 71 crossing and 70 long pass would deem him fairly useless in a wider role, however his 84 short pass is fine. 8/10


Weak foot having played 20 games with this card I thought he had 4 star weak foot, this is infact three stars, the only particularly off-putting element of this card.

Giroud Insane
By JonesyBoy913, 20-03-2021

i use him with totgs haaland up front and if you like playing dyche ball like me then you will love giroud ! he is the perfect target man, the perfect shooter, and more. he works well with any 87+ pace player, i have used the likes of saitn maximin, freeze bailey, in form depay and more. he is perfect in too many ways to count. and best of all, he dosent feel like a london bu?

header merchant, shoots from miles

pace WHEN YOU DONT HAVE A CHEM STYLE. use a hunter, engine, or a finisher if pace isnt so important to you.

The goat
By UpTheCh3ls, 20-03-2021

He is absolutely insane. He always gets into the perfect positions, and his finishing is banging. Weak foot is not super good but his high finishing does kinda cancels it out. He is very quick if I'm honest (I use Hunter), but if u want a more left stick dribbling, use Engine

  • Insane finishing
  • Good positioning
  • Can occasionally score the bicycle/scorpion
  • Volleys on point
  • Heading
  • Goated beard
  • Pace is very good with Hunter
  • Not super agile
  • No finesse shot trait
  • Stamina won't last you Full 90 mins (maybe 80th min), would be an issue in extra time

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

KING GIROUD
By ww7777, 20-03-2021

Alright, so I''l start off by saying I'm a huge Giroud fan, I am completely in love with his beard, his clinical finishing, his beautiful goals and all, he's basically a perfect player IRL. I'm also the same height as he is (193 cm), so it's another fact I love about him. I have tried his IF before, which obviously isn't very usable, but I wanted to have fun with using the players I like and not meta (as we all should!). He was clunky af and slow. When i saw EA dropped a usable Giroud, I immediately dropped everything and started sweating the managerial masterpiece to get him. BOY IS HE AMAZING.


His positioning is amazing, I played him in a 4-3-3 with Mbappe and Neymar on the wings and also SIF Pogba and Headliners Mahrez to support from the midfield, and he had no problem in the linking play, his target man abilities were very strong. His strength is very noticeable and he pushes off defenders with ease (it's also great when he's running for goal, he can bully almost everyone!)


His finishing is SUBLIME. He bangs goals from everywhere (and I'm a div1 player, so I know how hard it is to score sometimes with 5ATB rats etc. His long shots are perfect and guys, the best thing is his SHOT POWER. The net is actually broken after his shot. Absolutely stunning.


Dribbling is fine as well, he's not very clunky, but don't expect Neymar agility etc, he's just alright to create some space and pass forward or backwards to push the play on.


Pace is really fine, you can put him on get in behind and spam balls and he should be able to push defenders off and get to the ball. But playing him on target man is probably what you want the most.


Overall, this card is a must do for every Giroud fan and not only. He's extremely good, a poacher at his finest. An extremely strong, goal scoring machine.
