1. If Dembele will make it and we buy Griezmann, we will have 5 star players.
We will have to rotate.
2. If Dembele/Griezmann will fail, we will have only 4 star players.
No problem then.
3. If Dembele will fail and we don't buy Griezmann, we will have only 3 star players.
4. If Dembele will fail, we don't buy Griezmann, and Messi/Luis/Coutinho get injured, we will have only 2 star players like in this season.
Too many fans here are too romantic.
I don't believe that all out of Coutinho, Griezmann and Dembele will make it here.
Something always goes wrong.
Someone will fail/get injured and we will have 3-4 star players most of the time.
Griezmann is a left footed second striker, which is more or less Messi position. He isn't a 9 and probably will never be, and playing a winger is a thing of his past.
The question is about Griez himself not about Dembele. If Griez failed then it is 100M wasted even the rest of the players didn't fail.
This could be another Ibra from tactical standpoint, a player who will take the best position of Messi which will make him lose his spot or having to change positions which won't suit him much
And football isn't about how many stars you add, trying to fit Griez while we are still trying to integrate Dembele and Coutinho (like him or not, but there is zero chance the club and Valverde won't do everything they can to fit Dembele and make him look like worth the investment we made) could be disastrous
People talk about RM bench last year, but they forget that Zidane refused to make signings except bringing back Morata, putting faith in squad he had made the difference, something that actually made the difference for us since Crujif arrived but we are forgetting in past few years
We have enough star power, we need to let them gel and stop trying to bring more star power in the club and allow coach to build chemistry and work with what he has.
