Antoine Griezmann begins to despair of Barça fans while leaving his coach few options to give him back the title he lost last month when he was initially on the bench against Ferencvaros and in the Clásico against Real Madrid. After showing signs of recovery in Turin against Juventus and scoring the only goal for the Catalan team in Vitoria against Alavés, It seemed that the Frenchman was taking flight, but against Dinamo Kiev he signed what is possibly his worst game as a Barça player.
Perhaps the key to his performance was the resounding occasion that he missed on an empty goal in the seventh minute of the game when he wanted to adjust the ball too much and shot wide when all the narrators of the game called the goal. From there, the 135 million euro striker disappeared from the pitch.
Until Koeman decided to withdraw him from the field to give Dembélé his job, Griezmann was a soul in pain on the pitch of the Camp Nou. Other times, his offensive production has not been as desired, but at least he never bargained for the effort and his desire to participate. Before Dinamo a review of his numbers portrays a player who was blocked after his failure.
In the hour he was on the field Griezmann hardly intervened in the game. As an example, he gave only 12 passes, a ridiculous number. Aleñá, for example, who played only nine minutes gave nine, almost the same as the French playing 50 minutes less.
His participation in the offensive game was conspicuous by his absence: not a provoked foul, not a cross into the box, not a foul committed and not an attempted dribble. Only a shot from outside the area at the end of the first half that also went wide.
Koeman has always praised Griezmann's work in training and has ensured that he does not have any problems or complaints about his behavior despite the player challenging him in the past selection break when he said that Deschamps did know where he had to put him on the pitch.
Next week, Griezmann meets again with France and Deschamps. Maybe there, where the key piece of the team undoubtedly sat get back some of your feelings that you need so much when you put on the Barcelona shirt.
