Yeah, clrealy. The best player in history kept poor Dembouz from being the world beater he really is. So how many goals and assists this dead brain amoeba has this season?

Fake news he wants to renew
Four sources directly tied to Bar?a deny that the club called Demb?l?'s agent to reinitiate renewal negotiations. They insist that he will have to contact the club first if he wants to renew, not the other way around. Demb?l? keeps saying he wants to stay.

Football isn't played on a spreadsheet. He sprints and spams in crosses, which he's really good at, and that's it.
He is definitely low IQ player.
A "high IQ" playmaker play makes like Hazard, prime Neymar,Muller, Ozil and Messi.
Look at how those players manipulate space through movement and short passing, then look at Dembele.
He stands near the sideline, waits for the ball, sprints, and spams in a cross. Rinse and repeat for the entire match.
He racks up good numbers because he's effective at it, just like Willian was for Chelsea...doesn't actually mean he's a world class player
Once again, football isn't played on excel..

Whether he is 'low IQ' or not is not relevant it is about how effective he is in what he can do and under Xavis system would be hard pushed to find a better winger to fit the role.
Not all true anyway that all he can do is 'sprint and spam crosses' as couple of his assists and chances he has created have been clever balls through.

Indeed.
Team being built for Messi didnt suit Dembele and others.
Barca cant play like did v Real with Messi in team. In fact evry time Barca have scudded Real in last 5/6 years Messi has not been playing.
Not rocket science.
And Lukaku has a couple of quality first touches, he's still a limited striker with limited technique.
You make it seem like Dembele is some rare talent in some rare role. All Xavis system asks for is for some speedster with decent ability to cross the ball. Plus those are like his only through ball assists in like 5 years and now suddenly he's Zidane lmao.
Dembele wouldn't be hard to replace, hed be quite easy to actually.

Lukaku is irrelevant and rarely will score goals from good touches anyway.
Dembele has that in his locker to open game up with a pass and will be given freedom to do it.
Who replaces Dembele easily in way has played under Xavi this year?
Traore is a 'speedster' that crosses and is nowhere near Dembele nor could do what he did to likes of Real.
Nah try again. No one saying he is Zidane.
You seem pissed off Dembele plays well.
Another thing, blaming Messi for the most dead brain shit. Messi didn't struggle to create defense splitting passes, but the excuse there is that the team was built around him ok.
But what about Rakitic? He was constantly making some really good passes while he was here.
So was Jordi Alba
So was Busquets.
And Suarez and Messi were constantly getting in behind those passes.
Suarez and mess were already walking around and slowing down when Neymar was here...
And yet Neymar created constantly without issues.
Why? Because he understood how to create through off the ball movement. I'm not talking about running behind the defense, I'm talking about moving in between the lines and in half spaces, taking part in build up play through exquisite short passing.
Dembele couldn't and STILL doesn't do that because he doesn't have the intelligence. He can't partake in build up play normally because his short passing is awful. His understanding of movement in half spaces is awful so he's relegated to sitting I. The sidelines waiting for the ball so he can sprint and cross.
The guy has tremendous striking ability of the ball and he barely scores.
Why? Because he doesn't understand how to get into goal scoring situations, and even when he rarely does, he doesn't have the composure and intelligence for proper shot placement. There are centre backs in this team with a better understanding of how to shoot the ball in the box.
Dembele can only dribble when he's sprinting, he can't dribble utilizing skills and technique like real forwards do on a regular basis.
Once again, this team was already slow when Neymar was here. And yet Neymar was constantly dribbling and creating, not just in counter attacks but in low blocks as well
Dembele can't do this, because he doesn't have the technique.
Once again, what does this have to do with Messi?
It's not Messi's fault Dembeles only useful when him and the entire team sprinting.
It's the fault of his own limitations in technique and decision making.
Messi's play style was holding the team back yes, but he was not at fault for Dembeles own limitations. Sorry.

Not rocket science.
Games where there is more pace up top that will get ball early to suits some players more than others.
Simple.
Team built for Messi that plays slower game with everything going through him suits some and not others.
Was all said long ago and is playing out as expected once team gets pace and energy in it. While PSG.. well they can deal with that issue now.

And you make it seem like he's just a random division player. He's good and still a quality addition to top teams, plus he also got a strong eye for quality creative passes.
You mean with old Messi, right? Because with young Messi, we obliterated Madrid numerous times. Still think Dembouz, with Messi or not, is not cut out to be world class player people think he is.
