11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

[PhilS]

Not good final product today, he could not take advantage of maybe 20 opportunities. What you have to do with a player like this, you've got to keep on naming him to the starting lineup. It's not like you have too many other candidates that are going to be involved with 20 opportunities in one game.

Don't think he will ever be a clinical finisher but i expect him to improve in that area.

 

[Bran the Greenseer]

Don't think he will ever be a clinical finisher but i expect him to improve in that area.

Coutinho was a horrible finisher when he first came to europe, not saying dembele will end up like him but finishing is much easier to work on than dribbling/ passing imo.

Dembélé had a score of 7/10 on the sports site. amazing the way they change their mind about him.https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/1x1-del-barcelona-ante-alaves-6994287

7/10 was probably about right

Today was probably a typical Dembele performance: decent but unspectacular overall, some nice touches and moves, but poor end product

 

[Slevinn]

He improved alot i think. Hope he keeps growing.

Should've scored today tho.

 

[Horatio]

I do think he has it in him to become clinical in front of goal. I suspect with him it's more of a mental block rather than lack of technique. Should improve as he feels more at home at the club and among the players.

 

[Icarium]

He would do better on right imo. Coutinho Messi Dembele attack front with Suarez as sub after 60 mins that should be our go forward plan. But doubt valverde shares the same opinion.

 

[FCB1987]

random theory/question: do you guys think he might be better on the left against more open teams that leave a lot of space behind for him to run down the outside but better on the right against defensive teams where there's no space to run down the wing so he needs to cut in more?

 

[Danic]

Would like to see him on the right with Semedo. Think they would actually fit together quite well. Both are pretty fast and could get something going there.

Better on the right and Malcom on the left.

 

[soul24rage]

he is that player that once he scores, he'll go on a run where he'll keep scoring goals in the next 5 games or so. if he doesn't score, he's a frustrating player to watch.

 

[wisconsincule]

Good performance. We’re going places with this guy.

 

[El Barcelona]

Better on the right and Malcom on the left.

It's more likely that Malcom occupy on the right and Dembélé on the left.

Henry was shit at finishing early on in career. He then became deadly. He mastered the finishing in training.
Messi also improved alot in his finishing.

Dembele needs a special coach training. IF Dembele can improve he can be just as lethal. He has the composure to learn.

This isn't a munir or paco we talking about.
