Premier League 2017/18 Thread v.55 Quotes

Griezmann can get feed by Pirlo and Iniesta and if it’s against Barça, Madrid or in a crucial Champions League game, he will miss them.

If he gets setup to take a crucial PK in a big game, he will somehow find a way to hit the post.

He chokes under pressure wether it be with Atleti or the national team. Check out his Champions League performances in crucial games and in crucial games in the Euro for reference.

And he also goes on extensive goal droughts through out the season with both Atleti and the national team.

I still don’t understand how anyone can consider him a top 3 player in the world, let alone put him in the same category as Leo and Cristiano. Usually I assume those who do, are people who only watch him in highlights and not in a weekly basis.

Sure Koke, Saúl, Gabi, etc. struggle setting him up sometimes, but he also lacks creativity and can rarely create his own chances.

I still don’t understand how anyone can consider him a top 3 player in the world, let alone put him the same category as Leo and Cristiano. Usually I assume those who do, are people who only watch him when in highlights and not in a weekly basis.

Sure Koke, Saúl, Gabi, etc. struggle setting him up sometimes, but he also lacks creativity and can rarely create his own chances.

i dunno...his seizure celebration is top flight.

 

[El Che]

Yeah he sucks, cant keep up Messi or Cristiano level of performance for every game. Sell him now

It's the huge disparity numbnuts. Just want more consistency is all.

That and his goofy haircut 14-years-old cling onto are 2 the main reasons he’s so popular.

Have a random French player do that, get a ton of lines in his haircut with a mohawk and start dabbing during celebrations and you’ll see will become a big footballing star.

Suarez just sent Griezmann a text with the thumbs up emoji

He’s extremely inconsistent. Watch Atleti play instead of just watching the reddit goal highlights and you’ll see what I mean.

Also this is something I’ve been saying for months now, this isn’t something new.

Is it really though?
Again not saying he is at Messi/Cristiano level but he has scored 25+ goals for 3 seasons in a row for Atletico, who play mainly defensive tactics.
Before Messi and Cristiano came along, scoring 25+ goals was considered great. Now we have Messi and Cristiano putting that to same (+ Suarez, Bale/Benzema scoring 25 goals or whatever aswell), we are spoiled (add Auba and Lewa going past 30 goals like its nothing).

@Tules he is what Arsenal needs innit?

if a prem player did this, they'd get absolutely hammered.

Way to throw your players under the bus, who you think you are? Mourinho?!

That’s when France was winning cups — Italy could win and make World Cup finals, let alone qualify for them — the man we knew as Ronaldo was Brazilian — and football was more than just an appearance.

Nothing of interest has happened and my enthusiasm has gone down.

Dybala being benched, Leo not going nuts on Spanish defenders, Roma struggling, Milan sucking, Napoli failing to covert, Inter getting smashed, Valencia losing steam, etc.

I will say I enjoyed the heck out of Grêmio vs. Madrid yesterday. Cristiano’s free kick was fantastic.
