The shot for the goal was class but the turn leaving two defenders in no mans land was world class.

I thought he had a decent game overall.

Dembele still with that strong record of playing 3 full 90 mins games for Barca. He is casually scoring a goal each 75 min.
 
He's been brilliant, but these tactics and system isn't doing him any favours and holding him back at the end. He'd be ripping it under Pep or Klopp.

that just shows his class despite not playing under his prefered tactics hes still making a huge impact. so glad the kid is shutting his doubters up

@DonAK doesn't think so

Dembele being able to combine with Coutinho and Alba helped him a lot. On the RW he'll be isolated and have Roberto and Rakitic who both don't have 1/10th of the vision Alba and Coutinho possesses to combine with.

Moreover you have to return to a 4-4-2 formation which alters Dembele and Coutinho's positions and hinders their creative ability. It's a way more rigid system than the one we're playing right now.

And if we play a 4-3-3 still then it's still an issue as Suarez will have to play LW/LF which he's simply not capable of doing anymore. Messi lately has been going wide to the RW at times to receive the ball, more so than before which opens up the field. We should keep it that way.

The reason we're underwhelming or playing boring football is because of the manager and not because Dembele plays LW or that the right side is empty. The right side would be empty regardless of what we do unless Rakitic becomes more pro-active and we get a proper attacking RB.

Would be quite something if Dembele and even Arthur end up being Robert's swan song like how Ter Stegen was for Zubi.
