    Ousmane Dembélé

    Buddy, learn how to take an L and move on. You are just repeating the same stuff over and over again and this is not going anywhere. If you cannot comprehend how fundamental positioning and decision-making are for assessing a players creativity, it makes me genuinely doubt you have been watching...

    Joan Laporta

    Part of the thing too is its objective not true that he is offered himself to be "on the market" when Dortmund asked him to come and he turned them down. Lucho learned a shit ton from his struggles at Roma, he challenged himself and expanded upon his ideas after some of what he experienced in...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    - Dembele disappears in big games. Our flow of play offensively does not go through him, especially in big matches. He does not get on the ball enough and when he does, he is not consistent with what he delivers. (touches, heatmap, big chances created) - Dembele has no consistency to his end...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    I find it both funny and a bit contradictory how you want me to hold you by the hand and walk you through the stats I posted in comparison with other players; fail to comprehend how a stat like chance creation and touches can help you determine a players overall influence on their teams play in...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Listen bruv, other folks have already pointed out some of the flaws in your own analysis of Dembele, particularly the stat you posted. Considering the percentiles are solely weighted to La Liga players who are wingers or AMs, the fact that he doesn't have even higher numbers in these regards is...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    I used the Real match because it was very emblematic of how he performs against low block defenses aka buses. A case-study, if you will. If you want more games where he showed a similar lack of impact or invention against teams employing a low-block: - Last Atleti match this season - Alaves -...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    I am really not trying to come at you at all but I have a hard time understanding how you can empirically come to this conclusion, outside of you just being a big fan of his and wanting him to succeed here. If that is the case, it really is ok to just say that instead of making posts like this...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    For the record, it is called a Straw Man Fallacy, one of the many logical fallacies that you and a litany of others on this forum commit quite frequently. :coffee:

    How to approach the rebuild

    The only reason why I slightly prefer Aguero to Depay, at least right now prior to seeing them play, is their natural tendencies as players. The single most important thing we are missing right now from an offensive standpoint is box presence. Depay likes to come to the ball and build, a bit...

    How to approach the rebuild

    Like I said in the amigos section, Busi can certainly get playing time off the bench. He again, earned it for me to continue to be involved unlike someone like Pique. With de Jong in the pivot, I base a lot of this on where I see him long term here. He has all of the tools and the skill set we...

    The fact that you disrupted the flow of these posts now is deeply saddening to me now :lol: I did warn you.

    How to approach the rebuild

    Formation & Tactics Nothing too much to talk about here outside of the line-up selection. Really feel like Puig should be given plenty of minutes in this role and formation. His strongest traits right now are his ability to set a quick tempo to our play and that is going to be key to making...

    How to approach the rebuild

    Rebuilding for next season With it confirmed that Koeman is staying but Laporta making it very clear what sort of football he expects to see, I hope Koeman learns from these mistakes from the first season and hopefully stops with the shit he has been pulling with Puig. He is no longer the big...

    How to approach the rebuild

    The Koeman Situation Regarding his continuity as our manager, there are certainly things to consider on both sides regarding this decision: Pros: - It has been a very erratic few years since Lucho has left. Even during the Valverde era, there was so much turmoil that we never really had a...

    How to approach the rebuild

    Amigos: Whose earned it? A key thing to keep in mind with all of this is how important it is to keep some experience in the squad, despite the overhaul needed. We need some sort of leadership and experience so our youth products are able to make that quality jump from the B to first team. There...

    How to approach the rebuild

    What is a reasonable and realistic objective for the sporting project next season? We clearly need to separate our domestic and continental prospects before we can even try to answer that because we really are in different positions. Domestically, I believe we are still very much in a strong...

    How to approach the rebuild

    Ok everyone, I am just going to start this off with a long post warning :lol: It has been a very busy week for us and I have been writing and editing this post throughout the last couple of weeks. Bare that in mind with some of the things I talk about but I will section each post with a major...
