Ousmane Dembélé

Lucas and Adama are better than him.
Felix is ​​limited in dribbling.
It's a poacher.
he remained on the bench during the whole match against the Netherlands.

Well I also thought he is overrated and of course he isnt 120 mio worth but he played really really well in the preseason of Atletico. Many beautiful passes and nice dribbling, natural playmaker.

In Lucho we trust!

Watching that makes me cringe. He hasn't improved at all. The his control is like a pin-ball machine and decent defenders will just nick the ball off him. Nobody makes runs when he is on the ball because he is just head down and even he doesn't know what he's doing or going to do. Could be the worst signing we have ever made (money wise anyway).

The Felix situation will be interesting to see how it pans out. He seems to already have a decent understanding with Costa and with the defensive capabilities that Atleti already possess they could be a real force this year. I have put money on at 12/1 that they will La Liga this season.

A reference to what one can achieve at an age much younger than 22

Another reference what a footballer can be at an age younger than his

agreed that robben at that age was maturer and more decisive, only hazard belongs in the same category for chelsea - talent wise. not every young player is gonna follow the same linear trajectory as a robben. robben at that age was better than the "show pony" C. Ronaldo for reference. Demeble is still green compared to a robben, sure

Young Robben was terrific but 22 years old Ronaldo was still a class above him. Robben had better dribbling but in other aspects Ronaldo was better.

ronaldo's ceiling was higher, was gonna go on to do big things after his debut display against bolton. but no a 22 year old robben was better. i would love to know who ruud van nistelrooy would've preferred at that time..

Robben at 22 was maybe better than 19-20 year old Ronaldo but Ronaldo at 22 was the best player in the PL and at worst top three in the world.

nope. ronaldo enjoyed greater acclaim between the two at 22, which gives off this notion

Sorry but you dont saw the 22 years old Ronaldo who showed amazing dribbling, dangerous longshots and beautiful playmaking. Simply unstoppable. He was with Xavi and Messi the best in the world.

The formation we should go for next season:

Dembele/Griez......Suarez/Griez..................
...................................................Messi.........
.............................................Coutinho/Griez
...............Arthur/FDJ.....................................
..........................Busquets/FDJ.....................

Assuming:
- Dembele stays healthy
- Dembele is managed correctly and EV bring the best out of him
- Dembele plays as a LW


This game illustrates the concept I have in mind very well; assume Griezman playing instead of Vidal

Lost 6 or 7 simple balls in the 1st half.

What was his last useful match?
Vs Lyon at home in February?
