He might do better against lesser teams, though. We'll see what happens. He is the only true winger we have, at the moment. On the other hand, paying €150 mils for Dembélé is way too much, man. It is like we are playing with monopoly money.
I agree, this price tags are insane. But it makes sence economicaly, considering in what situation Neymar saga puts us in to.
If the board decides to spend such an amount of money for 1 player, than i would prefer Dembele before Coutinho. Also, i would prefer spending 150 mil for Dembele against 50 or so mil for Di Maria.
Higher risk translates to higher (possible) reward.
It s a very though situation for us out there, largely because the board did a bad job strategicaly. It looks like it will all come down to the last week of transfer window, which means we will probably buy high and sell low.
