I''m so glad our fans never blame Griezmann for this failure. He was almost as much as victim as us Barca fans from this transfer.
But some still blame him😢
He was partially guilty too
I don’t blame him. He very much wasn’t what we needed and was a victim of the board/president’s stupidity, but to say he wasn’t a shadow of his former self is not fair. Even in his last season, that was the griezmann we wanted. He put in the work despite not being world class, but it’s sad it took him so long to get going.
@@Crispy_DAWG ya he is one of the reason why barcelona won the Copa del rey
And yet you blamed Philippe Coutinho just because he was not white.
Bartomeu is the most incompetent peace of work ever tbh
Ed Woodward disagrees.
You guys arent in a financial problem @Doctor_Kroom
Vrai, il était incompétent.
piece*
And LaPorta??
Nothing hurts more for them to let Messi leave for free when they had the chance to sell him to Man City for £350 million but they wanted £600 million
I still can’t believe what bartemeo did to Barcelona. He is nothing more than a piece of shit. That 120 million used on Griezmann should have been used to strengthen our defense. That season, In the attack we had ansu fati, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. Why did we waste our money on another attacker
Cuz he tried copying perez Galacticos policy
Not just Bartomeu, the president before him started all this mess and now Laporta is also contributing
How is Laporta contributing ? Out Transfer policy over the last two seasons, considering the Limited Money available, is at least solid to good.
Money laundering.
thats the problem with having a vote in president by fans .if its a election year they,ll do anything to wow fans and get there vote and not care about next ssn or fanancial meldown because thats then .buying steady players and getting ppl to strengthen the team doesnt wow ppl .inherently flawed
He is an example of a right player arriving at the wrong time. I still believe griezmann's second season with barcelona was wonderful . He had 20 goals and 13 assists in all competions. No body in current barcelona squad puts up these type of Stats today . But because he came at massive fee of 120 million and because of his high wages no body rated him that much and we had to ship him off . He is won of the primary reasons why barcelona won the copa del Rey that season . Imagine him playing as an interior in xavi's system. With his defensive work rate he would have been a perfect player for us .
I mock cr7 fan so i know when egoman score a lot, his team lose the competition.
I swear man, all I can think of is how poorly used he was:/
The main argument was that Messi played in the same free roam role, but I think a midfielder could easily be sacrificed because of how much grizzi and leo contributed in deep build up situations.
As a RM fan that sounds scary honestly I feel bad LaPorta simply wasted a good player in Grizzy he shouldve stayed with Barka and not sent back packing to Atleti.
You also forgot one thing. If we didn’t sign griezmann we could have kept Messi.
even if Griezmann didn't sign with Barca, Messi was not gonna stay with Barca
@@omarbriseno4584Messi didn’t leave he was forced out due to la liga financial play & registration problems
As a Madridista I feel for the Blaugrana having been lead by such incompetance. Messi deserved to Retire at the Nou Camp.
555 million in 5 years, no way that's impossible
Barcelona wasted money on the stupidest things😂
What many fans forget is, at that time Greizmann was also the 3rd best player in the world. Take the money out of it and I'm sure most Barca fans would've had little issue with him outside of wanting a few more goals. Unfortunately, like Coutino, Barcelona missused them during their time at the club.
Thing is why buy playmakers like griezmann and coutinho when you already have Messi? It never made any sense. The money should not have been used that horrible.
@@Waluigi-vr4qzThe Neymar void
Sometimes i wonder, if bartomeu was hired by real madrid to weaken barca. Signing a player for 120 million that is not even required in the team and when he is actually needed, sold him for merely 20 million. Who in the right mind would do that?Although, griezmann was definitlely worth 100 million at that time.
I'm a conspiracy theorist, I'm starting to believe this. Probably with enough political power to pardon his Crimes in the future
@@vikingsownpackers That was satire. Pls don't take it seriously 😅😅
@@vikingsownpackers bei actually believed it
This kind of things happens. If you look at real Madrid they also bought Eden Hazard and he turned out to be a big flop. But the Real Madrid board and management make out a way to handle the problem. The young Vini got more chances in starting 11 and he grew up to a good player. Here I am not praising Real Madrid to humiliate Barca but I am just saying the truth. Barca could have managed things better than what has happened.
@@XYZ-tx9id I'm not really serious, just shows how incompetent Barca was managed that "secret agent" from Madrid seems more possible than how incompetent they were.
Can’t blame Griezmann for the club’s incompetence
We pay 120 for Griezmann, give him back to Atleti for a 1/4 of the price, then give them Suarez who helped them to a title. We really gave them that La Liga. I guess we're theyre daddy now
their* and no, You guys are just stupid.
you forgot to add some sugar brother..
Nah we were your daddy
this is such a huge cope
It is truly incredibe on how Griezmann managed to become among the league's best footballers. He used to be and still the face of Atletico, but sometimes it feels like Atletico is a big limitation to such a great player, the club rarely wins any silverware and cuz of that, Griezmann is NEVER talked about by anyone. Even in the recent light of the 22 wc in qatar, Griezmann had the MOST joint assists in the tournament and also created the most chances for his team. It is such a frustrating thing when people lend all the glory to Mbappe in the french squad, when Griezmann does all the dirty work in the back.
True story.
it always seemed to be, that after the very successfull neymar/suarez transfer combo, Barcelona just wanted to sign the players who had the best season, big names, "Meta" players.
Bringing in names was the top priority, instead of bringing what the team needed.
If Barca had signed up Rodri back then, it would've made a HUGE difference.
Griezmann was playing as a winger (i know he used to be a winger but things has changed bc his playstyle is a lil different now) he mostly wanted to play as a forward and the main man was Messi ofc that's why the likes of Coutinho flopped to bc he wasn't the main man but great video robby keep up the good work
He never was à winger
He was always a cam and à number 10 like how kaka used to play at milan
yes he did play as a winger back at his real sociedad days but in france he played as a cam currently @@willg1088
A winger is a foward
Coutinho. Dont forget Coutinho. 😂
He mentioned him
Everything came breaking down as soon as they let Neymar go and got Coutino as their big replacement. Half the signing after that was just terrible investments.
Yes they wanted some statement signing without any rational need
If griezmann and coutinho werent signed neither suarez not messi would have been forced to leave
Yes after Neymar transfer money was wasted on Dembele and Coutinho, instead of financial stability problems appear.
Now that you mention it, we could have gotten rodri for cheaper than griezmann, and the CDM position could've been set for 10 more years. But one thing i don't understand is why let him go when messi left and that no. 10 place in the team was open
Salary
Greizmann is atleti and atleti is greizmann. No and ifs or buts. I’m glad he got a chance to live out a dream but he’s our boy
The fact that he would be perfect for Barcelona right now is what makes me freaking mad
By far a better player than Lewandisney whos just a finisher
Agreed
We would need both then. Griezman is not a 9…
I find it funny how Barca fans twerk for griezmann when he plays against Real Madrid but don’t hate the man for flopping and leaving for 20mil just for him to return to world class level
Cuz we like griezmann he came in the wrong time, plus he value went down that time barca couldnt do nothing with that
Did more in one season at Barca than Hazard did in all 4 years💀
@@reddragon5483 that’s why we dislike hazard 😂
Griezmann second season was better than depay dembele coutinho combined
@@willg1088 dembele literally won the league last season being one of the mains reasons
We had too many #10s on the team and no direct threat. Griezmann was just another #10 and he was never going to be an out and out striker. It was a great player for the wrong team at the wrong time
man city have most of their player is 10#(playmaker) bernardo,grealish,foden,de bruyne,gundogan,rodri even tho cancelo and its work
The Bartameou era was notorious for excessive spending on attackers we didn't need
Griezzmann could have taken over the reigns after messi left since they have a very similar profile and yet they decide to send him back the same year they lose messi, what in the world was the board smoking at the time??
bartomeu is every real madrid fans’ favourite barca staff
The biggest robbery in football transfer market was Dembele to Barca coming from a Madridista.
Burger King to Real Madrid is the biggest scam
Greatest robbery has to be for Joao Felix and I don’t know how it’s not spoken about more, he has been terrible for the money spent on him
tbf if koeman and setien wasnt our coach when griezmann was at barca, griezmann wouldve been successful here, if only valverde continued or someone like xavi had took over then maybe he wouldve been great here. i pin the blame on bartomeu and abidal, why cant you negosiate for less than 100m why do we have to activate his release clause. valverde asked for griezmann since 2017 after neymar left but those two decided to sign coutinho and dembele for 300m
we should have focused on Suarez and not waste money on Griezmann (the pain of being a Barca fan🥲)
i hate bartemou. i just cant . this guy is the reason we bought same player for same postion . useless players and in the end bankrupcy. the guys who said xavi out was never a fan. people have to understand that we are building a project. and now idk who is better coach then hansi flick . as we really need some german discipline
I remember them encouraging players (Coutinho, Dembélé,...) to strike their way to a transfer to them. I always found that very bad behavior that should not be rewarded. As a fan of any other club, I cannot thank Bartomeu enough for bringing this to an end.
The 8-2 was a great day and just beautiful to watch. But the agg. 7-0 the year before was also great.
This guy single handedly messed up Messi's career. He would have a lot more UCL trophies if this incompetent piece of trash wasn't the president. I don't expect barca to its former glory for at least 8-7 years.
I lost it when he himself said “ I should be in talks along with Messi and Cr7” and when he had the chance he did not come close, yes he is an exceptional playmaker and contributions but no where near the greats no no not at all. When he said that I knew he was another looking to boost himself that boost himself on the field.
Thing is how was he ever gonna prove that while playing at Barca? We had messi, coutinho and griezmann who pretty much plays the same position. The money should have been used elsewhere. This is a transfer a kid would make in fifa. He is nowhere near messi or Ronaldo. He is a fantastic player though
this is what happens when you buy a player that plays in a style and system completely different to yours 🗿
there's a problem with the trequartistas and shadow strikers when played in a 4-3-3
Ne blâmez pas Antoine, il a fait de son mieux pour Barça. Blâmez Bartomeu il est un président incompétent et il a ruiné le club avec ses mauvais transfers et son mauvais choix de managers. J’ai adoré Griezmann en Barça.
no one expected a downfall once he moved back 😂 he had great stats
Great video and channel man. Keep it up!
(Brief pedantic note: it’s Futbol Club Barcelona, not Futbol Club de Barcelona 😝)
Lovely video mate!
Bartomeu single handedly won Real Madrid LaLiga 2020 and I thank him for that
Well what can I say
Thank you Bartomeu for destroying my football club.
I love Griezmann as a player...except for his diving like turning the tide against Croatia with an already insane amount of ref bias in favor of France. You know what, f him
Unfortunately Griezmann got the blame. Our fans and players are everything, our front office is an utter disgrace.
lol the 442oons Barca logos 😂
You should a make a video like this on Coutinho
As a Barca fan all I have to say that Barcelona are like the one guy that won the lottery but doesn’t know how to manage their money and within 10yrs they go broke. That’s barcelona and now they are paying the price literally.
Great story telling man
There are certain players that aren't made for Barcelona or at least, their position doesn't exit in the Barca system. Griezman and Coutinho were some of those players. If Griezman is to be in this current squad, he will have to play as a number 10, which naturally doesn't exist in Barca, or he will play as a right winger and be given the freedom to cut in, the freedom which I doubt Xavi will give him. The same way I feel Raphinha will do more damage to opposition if given more freedom to roam.
He can play as a striker
@danchiziofficial2159 Griezman is most effective as a playmaker or a second striker, he needs someone ahead of him.
He would absolutely be thriving in the current Barcelona system. Him behind Lewandowski as a #10 or even as free roaming #8 because of his defensive work rate, Barcelona would be much better. Unfortunate timing but he would be great for them right now lol
João Félix was the biggest robbery ever.
I would say Lukaku takes the cake
Hazard and alexis sanchez
What's your thoughts on Hansi Flick possibly becoming Barca manager
I wish we had Griezmann now.
1:03 dude doesn't even want ucl
He just wants the league title and still failed
the thumbnail is a piece of art
In any other buisnes if you squander away over 250 million your going to be sacked ,held accountable and financialy scrutinised the 130 mill on coutinho and this signing are baffling and someone should be in prison for fraud someone somewhere made/pocketed alot of money .but its more bizare the fact they never gave both players a real chance
Fair call on Rodri, but could we have got him? Atleti needs to agree the deal as does the player. Maybe he would have preferred City. To my point though, having a go at Pique in that sentiment is just stupid. And you mentioned De Ligt to boot.
It makes me happy that many Barça fans think of Griezmann highly & his shortcomings wasn't due to his performances but mismanagement at the club. And that's exactly what happened. Griezmann had already been linked to Barcelona, but right after Liverpool came back to win 4-0 at Anfield, all the Griezmann rumors intensified because the media felt that Barcelona needed another player who can score goals if Messi & Suarez can't do so & Coutinho was made into a scapegoat. And Barcelona fans like myself bought into that. That's why they quickly loaned him out to Bayern. Tactically, the "MSG" front 3 was going to be a handful because one of them would have to play LW and none of them are comfortable playing there, and that's why Barcelona should have tried to sign a true LW instead of Griezmann, especially for 120 million. But this video hits the nail on the head: it's a robbery for everyone. Barcelona were robbed financially (thanks Bartomeu), they were robbed from having a great player like Griezmann in their squad after he left, & Griezmann was robbed himself of winning La Liga with Atletico Madrid in 2020/21 & two years of unfair scrutiny that also carried over into his first season back at Atletico.
I wouldn't let Bartomeu to manage a vegetable stand tbh. He gave out 30m+ contracts to every player, only FDJ still remains, so Laporta also rightly wants to sell him. No player can justify such a contract.
Messi can’t do anything without iniesta or xavi in Europe
Acclimate?.,its ACCLIMATISE!..deary me!
I think he didn't succeed because Messi was there
Signing a player that had laughed in our faces with pique should of been a sign to never speak to him and his agents again (let alone pay so much fucking money for him) and shipped Pique out the club cause tf was he doing working with him and clowning the whole club on national television but bartomeu so incompetent he did the opposite, contract for pique and sign griezmann.
People hate him for diving in World Cup final…
Really like to see more of these vids
Didn't we have to pay another extra 20 mil to atletico? So we actually paid 140 mil for griezmann.
Correction, 6th May 2009.
Keep in mind if Barca didnt win the treble in 2015 Bartou would have been let go that year
you should do a video on how barca went broke
and then we got united that spend 100m for anthony lmao
Griezmann is to slow to play in Barcelona offensive scheme
such a good thumbnail😍
is it a robbery if u sign a good player and he suddenly plays bad or is a matter of your coach being shit? After he return to old club he played better what a suprise
I don't think he knows what robbery means...
How things changed
Yeah coz ousmane demebele, philip coutinho were such great successes😐
can we at least agree on how cute and incredibly gorgeous Griezmann was with that long hair? I had feelings for him ngl
No ones talking about how Messi could’ve stayed if we didn’t pay so much for grizzi or gave him such a high salary
Hi Robby :) nice video.
robbery ❌
robbery ✅
I dont blame valverde. Hes clearly a defensive coach. Idk why bartomeu spent all our money on attack when valverdes tactic was simple... defend find the 1 player(mostly messi)
Bartomue set him up for failure
He is not a failure, he just Made the bad decision of going to Barcelona to reduce himself to be just another pawn of Messi... 🤷 Bad decisions that he most likely regreat but as it happens to everybody, in life there's no going back... 🤷
20 goals a season, and a flop…get a load of this guy💀
Do u agree with Alectico paying digeo Simone that kinda money
Oh, this isn’t about Antony?
I do think Griezmann would shine under Xavi
Facts now that Messi has left he can do that role really well
Why the hell is the camera so close to your face?
Barcelona was never a good team
Im still trying to understand exactly why they signed him when you have messi in team. I mean i know Bartomeu was dumb but damn that man was more than just dumb. He was a serious idiot.
Remember griezmann refused to reduce his salary
As he should have, why did he owe them any favors?
Good for him, u make a contract stick to it
It’s Coutihno
He's French
It’s absolutely crazy to me how everyone is chiming in with their opinions on Barca and virtually no one is stopping to note how intelligent, astute, insightful, and ENTERTAINING your analysis is. You’ve got it, kid. Please expand your scope while maintaining your quality.
I can't believe our only really sucessful attacker was Lewandowski since Suarez and Neymar.
You left out the part where Griezmann and dembele mocked ( and uploaded the video to social media themselves)a Japanese man fixing there hotel while on a paid sponsorship trip to Japan paid for by a Japanese company, which caused outrage in Japan ultimately forcing barca to give there Japanese sponsors a discount to stop them pulling out
Dont blame my goat because your mcmuffin club dosnt how sign players why spend hundreds of millions on griezmann and coutinho when you have messi they play the exact same role he was worth over 100 mill at 2018 he absolutely deserved the ballon dor barca bought them when they needed them the least right now they would be perfect griezmann is cf not a lw or striker like you said or he played at barca
Should have signed actual left wingers like leroy sane and mane not center forwards and play them out of position
Hi robby bobby
Bro, stop the autofocus, it's distracting
make videos on recent topic....don't want to remember this shit...can't change the past
I can understand your agenda and propaganda now
😂😂😂😂😂😂
2nd comment.
hey can u pin me Robby Lou pls lol
its kinda sad how Griezzman wanted to come at fcb but yet failed
