Antoine seems to have found his perfect position on the pitch – it doesn’t exist.
- Antoine Griezmann has played behind Martin Braithwaite against Ferencvaros.
- This actually turns Antoine into what we’ve seen from him at France – he’s finally given the free role in the attacking midfield.
- This time, the Frenchman has scored a wonderful backheel goal after playing as a shadow striker.
Here’s what fans say about it…
DesiMojito (via Reddit): “Braithwaite took the no. 9 position from Griezmann so that Griezmann would play the free role. His role has really benefited Griezmann.”
fela (via Twitter): “Notice how Barcelona has been aging better since we played with a proper 9. Griezmann finally scoring.. and the goals are coming in more and more.”
Jamarcus316 (via Reddit): “Braithwaite is just living proof that we need to play with a number 9. Even with him being an average/good player, we play better!”
TalkFCB (via Twitter): “That’s what can happen when Griezmann can run from DEEP, with a proper centre-forward occupying the center-backs.”
