Ousmane Dembélé

[Akiva]

I love Dembele, he was always the Dortmund player who impressed me the most having watched almost every Bundesliga game they played last season.

That said, I don't think he's anywhere close to being a priority for us, never mind it's not unthinkable a near-world record fee would be asked, and le10sport are the French "The Sun".

Think we'll, rightly, stick with Raheem.

If raheem was more ruthless and clinical in the final third he'd probably become the next best player in the world. That let's him down so much though. Great to see kids like Jesus, Dembele and Mbappe. They're all so clinical at such young ages all three are destined for great things.

I understand you were replying, but finishing is supposed to be a weakness, yet Raheem scores the same, already, in the Prem.

I think Dembele is a very exciting talent, but Raheem in his own way,does the same, in the Prem & has a better pass success rate for England, than Dembele does for Dortmund. In fact I think Joleon Lescott does.

I think we have a tendancy to go wildly over the top with new toys & disrespect what we have.

Dembele is a much better athlete, has much better footwork, more flair, and crucially seems to have much more confidence in his own ability. Bags of potential even if you solely concentrate on physicality.

Sterling is good on his day without being exciting. I'll get jip for saying that but its my opinion for sure. At best he has moments of top level play...but he doesn't seem to have what you cannot teach, and seems very inconsistent at times.

Get it done Txiki..

Left wing - Sane + Sanchez
Right wing - Dembele + Sterling

Is this just bullshit?

Is this just bullshit?

Unless it's reported by someone reliable, it's most probably bullshit, similar to the Javi Martinez rumours.

Looks like pure BS.

Funny to see again how a twitter message can cause pages full of hysterical teenage like responses.
My first response was "when and where do we get to see the likes of Diaz who other than save us another 60-70 million or so, at some point must be given opportunities at 1st team level" . Maybe the coming US-tour will see to that.

Another link which creates a thread where posters heavily criticise the players we already have i.e. Sterling.
