Griezmann tries it, but there is no way. The Saturday, the fault of precision and of confidence prevented that he premièred his scorer list with the FC Barcelona this season 2020-21

Along this week, Antoine Griezmann was protagonist by a crossing of statements with his trainer, Ronald Koeman, when ensuring the Frenchman that Deschamps yes plants him in his ideal position in the selection of France, no like sucede in the Barça with the Dutch. The technician of the Barça did not doubt in remembering his authority when ensuring that "the trainer commands" in the onces, although this Saturday already had a first gesture to arrive to meeting points.

It is clear that to Koeman interests him that 'Grizi' surrender the best possible in the Barça, and from here that initially it did not plant him of right-handed extreme in front of the Getafe in the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, but rather of 'false nine'. A position that neither is the ideal for Griezmann, but in which at least it manages something better that being shut in the band, without capacity of desborde.

The case is that the '7' of the Barça took advantage of his position, more centred that of habit, to throw desmarques and go in more in contact with the balloon and with his mates of attack. Also it was more marked by the defenders of the Getafe, that did not leave him breathe especially in the second half, when they cancelled him entirely beside Leo Messi.

The history could have changed, however, if the French there was atinado in the best -and only- opportunity of goal that had. 'Grizi' Threw a desmarque perfect and Pedri González, that premièred titularity this Saturday like Barcelona, yielded him a balloon that was an authentic candy. The Canarian left entirely only to the French in front of the goalkeeper, and this was not fine.

Griezmann And another opportunity desaprovechada

The shot of Griezmann went to the clouds, to the not planting well the body neither take the best decision to the hour to shoot. Instead of looking for the placing and precision, looked for a power that did not know to control. An unforgivable error for a player of his quality and level, and that goes back to give the reason to Koeman with regard to what said in previous press conferences: that Griezmann has to give already a step forward.

No longer they cost the excuses of the position in the field neither the fault of intervention in the game. If his mates do not look him, Griezmann has to do see even more, hit a cry -to himself same- and leave the skin on the field no only in the pressure and recovery after loss, but also to level of offensive inspiration. It needs to recover the confidence what before and, once do it, perhaps are to time to see how triumphs in the Barça.
