Ousmane Dembélé

[olivis]

After this season he has only 1 year left on his contact. Unbelievable. Imagine him leaving for free after costing 105M and eating our salary from the hospital bed.

This season has only started. So there's really 2 seasons left. A lot can change.

Make or break for his career at Barca this season, though.

Consider it as a sunk cost.

Did he learn Spanish at least during his free time?

If he just played fifa in spanish, he would have learned by now.

 

[Marie-Antoinette]

So he plays in French. Thanks.

Koeman may start Trincao over Dembele next match

Koeman may start Trincao over Dembele next match

If that happens it confirms the bias against Dembele. Trincao has been horrible lmao, and currently shows no redeeming features over Dembele. Don't care if the dude is lazy, injury prone, or whatever...when he's fit he's the second most talented player in the squad, and the best winger in the club. This is a guy that can register almost 10 successive take ons in a match. A guy who can pull a goal out of thin air by himself. A guy with incredible pace and acceleration. He's fucking ambidextrous.

Why would you play Trincao over him? Besides MuH AttITuDE of course.

 

[Rory]

Trincao hasn't started a game in the league yet, it makes sense for a player who has been subbed on during the last few games to graduate to starting a match where key players are being rested.

 

[Rory]

I'd start dembele too because he's had the most rest I just wouldn't put it down to a bias if he doesn't start

 

[Laplacian]

Once again it doesn't matter if Dembele is injury prone, dumb, lazy has down syndrome, or whatever...he still has a natural ability over the ball that only appears a few times a generation. Because of that he is and will always be 10x the player Trincao is and will be. If your only options are Dembele, a U17 player and an inexperienced player who can't dribble or outpace fullbacks, then you start Dembele; 100% of the time. If he doesn't start I'm assuming there's something else going on.

 

[Andresito]

One reason for Dembele not playing until now was because the transfer window still was open and the club wanting to get rid of him.

I'm sure he'll get plenty of playing time now that he stays and with Trincao still adapting.

Koeman may start Trincao over Dembele next match

Why not both? Dembele on the left instead of Ansu who played a lot lately, Trincao on the right instead of Griezmann who didn't offer much. Maybe Griezmann instead of Messi who also needs rest.

Spanish is one of the more easier languages to learn Especially considering simularities between his native French. If he doesn't know it by now, then he honestly wasn't trying and didn't even give a fuck to be open to it.
