Ousmane Dembélé

You can't realistically compartmentalise the rotation like that though.

Sometimes Agüero and Jesus will play together, sometimes Sanchez and Sané will play together. The whole point is to have fluidity.

6 players is too many to keep everyone happy IMO, not enough games to keep all 6 happy, especially 6 players who expect to be playing every week, and would be a bit miffed at the rotation we'd get with 5 of them.

I'll defer to Pep though, if he thinks it can work, back him.

Agree that 6 for 3 is too much and you know what? Aguero's departure would complete the puzzle. Though can't see it happening in the light of Khaldoon's words.

No but for the purpose of simplification I wanted to demonstrate 2 players for each position. I know that the reality is bar Aguero the rest of those attackers can play in 2, 3 or 4 positions, thus sparking numerous combinations of starting line ups.

I think the only winger/striker player we need to bring except Sanchez is Mbappe. Dembele has a huge talent but how much better him than Sterling? Mbappe is going to be the best striker in the world

Much. On a top 8 team in the world Sterling is a great player off the bench, plus hes English so I think he's still really important to us. The last part of the season Sterling saw the bench a lot. I think it was Pep getting him used to that role a little bit.

Same Dembele that was available for 15 million last year? Same guy everyone and their mother knew was on the way to being great? That guy?

In principle alone, we should not make this deal. a 70 million Euros profit after 1 season? Damn, Dortmund must be on some Juventuss shit. Ley someone else pay it.

Let him go too Barcelona, when he can't dislodge the front 3, we'd getting in 2 years for 35 million. Lets just hope we don't cock it up like we did Sanchez 3 seasons ago.

I think Sterling is a good player but he need to be a on the bench. Sane is better and if we get Sanchez of course he is better than Sterling. To be honest I'd rather play with B. Silva, G. Jesus or KDB on the wing before Sterling. About Dembele again, I will go for him if Sanchez deal will not happen and not together. On the other hand Mbappe is a player of once in a decade, if you have the opportunity to bring him you have to do it

He actually supports that lot but that shows how good he is at his job, I couldn't be as impartial as he is.

Very impressive!

Pay it and let Pep deal with the 6 into 3.

£75 million. Kids got talent I have no doubt, but done nothing to warrant that price imo
Potential shouldn't come at the same price as guaranteed class.

Have you watched him? He's amazing man. Not potential, Class already. 10g 20assits for bvb and a joy to watch.

 

[Dax777]

£74m is about what you'd expect. Martial being £58m makes it look good.

Not really. It just shows how stupid buying Martial for 58 million was when they could have gotten Dembele for 15.
