Nah he actually caused some danger when he was subbed on so I wouldn't say he "Did Nothing"

He's super graceful as well and light on his feet. The force strong is with this young padawan

Yeah but what did he produce.. It's a déjà-vu with Neymar except for the fact that the same members forgot all the shit they said about Neymar. Not to mention the fact that Neymar is largely Superior in these areas he is hailed for now. I give it to BBZ for showing some consistency at least. He been criticizing Neymar for something and he's doing it for Dembélé now.

No, Dembele isn't Neymar and just because they have playmaking abilities doesnt mean their match input/performance and effectiveness is the same. Especially in a team like Barcelona where there needs to be certain positional discipline and fundementals.
Neymar tend to take more touches and hesitate whether to shoot or pass in the box and usually tries to cut to his right alot. Dembele has been more direct with Barcelona, usually look for a quick release (low and high cross) and maintains his width alot. Neymar tend to drop alot deeper in his late seasons, forgetting Messi is the main playmaker. Not to mention he is very strong with both foots and is much faster than Neymar.
Coutinho is also largely superior in areas Neymar is good in but does it mean it is deja-vu? The main problem is Neymar has been attempting way too many dribbles and getting dispossessed alot.
Neymar hasnt been effective in the CL last year and stats show. A whopping 3.6 times dispossession per match and a 51% dribble success rate and attempt to dribble at least 10.6 times per match. If he was successful in such a risky playstyle, I will give him credit. He is the only one who attempted close to 300 dribbles across Europe's top 5 league and he isnt very successful with it.
None of Coutinho or Dembele ever attempted that much dribbles and always look to transition quickly, which is the fundemental of Barcelona's play and we have been much more effective ever since.
Deja Vu? Don't think so mate. I'm definitely glad Neymar left.

Great highlights, especially in only 24 mins.
P.S The France kit looks much better with the white shorts instead of blue like in the Euro's.

Yup. It's:
----------------Lloris------------------
Hernandez-Umtiti-Koscielny-Pavard
Pogba---------Kante-----------Rabiot
Dembele------Mbappe--------Martial
Edit: He was 1 on 1 with GK, but he was wrongly ruled offside, before he did something. It would've been interesting to see how he does in 1 on 1's with keepers.
Anyway, Pogba and Rabiot are shambles. No combining in the midfield, just booting it to Mbappe. Dembele has had a few nice dribbles and that chance, where he has be wrongly called offside so far.
