Top scorer of EURO 2016 a choker? Don't think so. He didn't score in the final and missed a penalty vs Real Madrid in CL final but that happens to the best of players.
It's funny people bring up Tevez when talking about Higuain and his failures in the CL. The same Tevez who had a zero goals in 6 games the season we got dumped in the group stages. His one goal in the Europa league that season was his first goal in Europe since he played for United. He hadn't scored in 20 games or so in Europe before that. Yet he had a great second season in the CL. No reason why Higuain can't do the same.

That is so not true. He scores 20+ goals per season and is a big match player.

Benzema iz classic striker in Real and not best scorer. Classic striker is not same as a best scorer. Ronaldo scores a lot more in club as a wing then in national team where must play as a classic striker a lot of times.

He can play and I will never use one of best todays wings as a 9. Higuain is nature striker and even he is far from perfect I would prefer him to play 9.
What is it with us and CFs being awful in their second season? Happened with Llorente, Morata, Mandzukic (got saved by shifting him to the wing), now Higgy...even Amauri was decent in his first, at least compared to the travesty coming afterwards.
But Guardiola will be delighted with idea to put Griezmann at fake 9. Dont care about my hate on wasting players potential on their second best positions. I will always hate it. Too late for change.
