From this game I can conclude Doue brothers are very very good at football

And even though we are currently in no position to go for the younger one, his older brother is there

I don't think he's that expensive either

Edit: Just made a fantastic cross for Strasbourg equalizer. Imagine we had this. Also very good header by this Argentine striker

Indeed he is good. Which is why BlueCo got him.

Strasbourg are in that Girona position of a couple season back where the Chelsea investment and develop strategy has given them a way better team than the had any right to have.

And that for this season atleast look very competitive with a real chance of CL football.

But it's a question if they can really grow that team, or if they will have up and down cycles as the good talents get spun back to Chelsea and/or played around for FFP.

@MonteCuler is also on the money that Doue (the rightback) has that physical fullback profile that we sorely miss.

Sidenote: Kounde is developed well physically, but it's not really functional muscle mass for football.

I am more interested in the crossing part, or to be more precise the playmaking one.

We have zero playmaking fullback tbh, we have a big one (Martin) , athletic runner (Balde) and defensive RB (Kounde) but no playmaking one. We used to have the likes of Roberto, Alba (older version) Alves, Zambrotta, Gio.

If Doue sr has that ability, I would be happy to have a guy like him. The physical part will be bonus.

PSG are like a rugby team that can rotate near enough every week to keep players fresh as very little chance have any competition in league.

Even before Barca Vitinha moment he feels slightest thing is off and fresh for next game.

Kounde isnt even a great defensive RB.

He is done 1v1 far too often and a step slow to realise danger.
