11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

[Albo]

Not surprised at all about his recovery.

Exactly what you would expect from an elite genetic specimen.

I think you mean what you'd expect from a God among men, Sakari Orava.

 

[Windhook]

Ousmane looks delighted to be back!

 

[Neymessi]

Great. Very great. I thought he would be back just before the r16 starts. Lets see how good we are now. EV is running out of excuses.

 

[Ousmane Dembélé]

Look at how happy Messi is. I too would be ecstatic if I didn't have to play with a donkey in Denis, Vidal or Deulofeu anymore

 

[Barcaman]

Probably just light training. Haven't seen anything on official site nor Catalan press. Don't expect him in these last 2 matches.

 

[Devils]

Soon...SOON

Beautiful.

Just look at the technique. Stunning.

Not the best source, but why should they lie?

 

[Ousmane Dembélé]

If he's participating in full training that means he's ready to go. We could still be precautions and rest him till the new year, but no way he would have joined the rest of the squad in training full time if he wasn't at 100%.

He's going to get two more full training sessions in before the Deportivo match and I see no reason why we shouldn't bring him on after we've killed the game. It would be a low pressure game being played at a low tempo late on, it would be a perfect time to get him out there for 30 minutes get a couple touches and have a little jog. The Clasico is another matter altogether and I don't think we should be throwing him in there yet, especially at the Bernabeu.

We are so close to finally have someone who isn't predictable on the wings.

he has everything to prove i don't understand the hype. hopefully the contribution matches the price tag or we fucked because we splashed the neymar money on him.

You just mentioned his "price tag", that's where the hype is coming from. He's a big signing, of course there's hype.

This is the only completely positive thread on this forum, let's wait until he starts playing again for a couple months before starting the doom and gloom.

 

[DonAK]

Well, we won one CL title in four years with Neymar. If we couldn't win more with a player like him and a trio like MSN...

Not like the expectations are that immense, that we have to win the CL with him right away.

He will be a success, can guarantee you that.

MD is saying the same thing now.

I think in Valverde's eyes it's too early for him to get the greenlight this Sunday.

Think there's a stronger chance he could make the classico squad though.
