What's this guy good for
He should keep on with the cross, the only thing he's almost good with his vision (sometimes)
Maybe he'll improve his shooting one day (A dream is the fuel of an human spirit) but for now he should stick to cross.
He would waste too many potential goal if he take his chances...
Real was able to improve Vinicius finishing, why can't Barca Dembeles?

Fin, it's good to see your optimism but we saw Vinicius evolve in a Year span. He was already a different player far more composed at the end of last season, but for dembele it's now 3 years (I'm nice with him and retrieve 2 years for the injury) and he's still not efficient at all.
1 goal in an injury less season is unaceptable at this level. Just look at the difference with Fati, even Ferran whose play isn't majestic (too say the less) score a lot more (and no this is not because Xavi's instructions), we saw Dembele take his chances several time this season but he seems to like Elon Musk and try his best to sponsor the Dodge "Too the moon" project.
I was one of the most fervent Dembele fan but this injury less year confirmed that he's not good enough for this level. Let just try another player, maybe he'll not be as "electric" but at least we would maybe have a complete and reliable player (and i'm not even speaking about his salary inquiries for the renewal)

Yeah he'll never be someone scoring lot's of goals, doesn't have the movement and shooting technique for that. Still can produce numbers though, depsite the meme of just scoring one league goal his 10 assists aren't too shabby considering he only played ~1300 mins.
But that's probably as good as it's gonna get with him. Lot's of lost balls and wasted chances, but could add up to 20-25 G+A in a full league season just by sheer amount of actions.
Ferran is more likely to significantly up his goals, he has the movement to frequently get into good scoring positions. So far he was pretty wasteful, but he wouldn't be the first one to get a good run where everything works and for him that would "just" mean scoring the majority of the load of big chances he get's. Not guranteed but imo more likely than Dembele suddenly changing his whole playstyle.
Dembele cant even get a shot on net. Like I've said, the only reason to keep him would be that despite his wages, he'd still be cheaper than buying Rafinha with a fee and paying Rafinha's wages. We have so many vital positions to reinforce unfortunately. We need to be wise with our money.
