Ousmane Dembélé

Even if they win it (big if, but possible) it won't be because Dembele 'leads them'.

it's a team effort. He's probably their best player, but he isn't leading them or dragging them. Unless you are using that word for hyperbolic reasons.

Saying he's 'leading then' is a non-starter and failure to understand what sort of team they are and them tactically.

Football is team based, and PSG is more of a team than relying on individual brilliance (even Dembele always attributes his goals to his teamates).

However, all Teams still needs a face, and PSG have been using Dembele as the face so far and he has scored key goals for them (now if they go ahead to win the CL which is a very very big if (cause i consider Barca stronger, and i see this PSG winning Madrid), and Dembele is still playing as he is now, that means Dembele would probably be used as the face of the club), so the narrative for some would be that he led them, when in reality it was more team based (that's how it works, you see Dembele's face often when PSG wins)

Exactly, it is about perception and hype.

The same way some clowns act like Cristiano Ronaldo 'led' real Madrid to all those CLs, when actually what he was was the tip of the spear while the other players set him up with loads of chances. He was also poor in most finals and bailed out by his mates. But he was the face of the team and club so received all the credit.

Humanity is fucked psychologically, that is all.

Cr7 played with two balon d'or winners, one of the goat's cb, lb, dm, cm, ozil, bale, di maria, carvajal.
That madrid cl win with carvajal, modric, kroos, casemiro benzema told everything you need to know about cr7 being the 'one' in that madrid side.

Aye it is a load of bollocks. He played his part obviously but him taking all the credit is proof of how overrated he is and the celebrity worship in our society. They have won two since the cunt left. He benefitted from that club's affinity with the CL, that's all.

People have such simplistic thinking.

Exactly. Suarez was the closest player that you could said "One man army" if he achieved that pl throphy with liverpool. One could wonder if all that grit, power took its toll on his body. When you look at players he played with there, its abominal. Shame he wasnt surrounded with top players throughout of his whole career.

 

[Barcaman]

It's true that he is in debt to Barca bigtine and they he disappointed us but it's hard to hate him, he's like a mascot of sorts.

There's much less of quality players out there and Dembele is still one of those who make game exciting.
