Fair play to him, but still would not give anywhere near the contract he is demanding. Lad will inevitably become complacent, pick up more injuries and have 3 bad matches where he cannot control a ball for every 1 good one.
As far as tonight goes, it was his best performance here since a few years back against Leganes where he was dribbling their entire team for 60 minutes. He is not capable of those types of crazy dribbling sequences anymore. Much more of a wait and see player now that picks his moments.
Truth is, when Dembele plays like today he's the best attacking player in the team. The challenge is maintaining it, perhaps Xavi can.

Agree with you except for the part where you say he's not capable of this crazy dribbling sequences. I think he's still capable but now he's more mature and playing like a team player. He can do it but know that it's far more risky for the team play and just adapt himself.
Fantastic 20 minutes. One of those days when he is world class. On Thursday in Naples he was 3rd division level.
It is what it is.
