Doue has great game vs Inter. But Yamal vs Inter is something way beyond Doue's ability.
Something people don't understand is that Barca's style against Inter was cool, but it relied too much on Yamal's dribbling.

PSG's approach against Inter was different (involved more movements and fewer touches), and that's why we didn't see their wingers trying to emulate what Yamal did. However, they ended up winning 5-0 in the final.

Good point

PSG was better at all levels than us compared to us.

Like I said, it was just basically pass it to yamal.

While doue as help from the entire team.

A credit to yamal, but discredit to the team

To be fair if we met the same version of Inter PSG did we probably would have raped them too. Looked mentally and physically completely out of it. Long campaign + the Barca/Bayern games took their toll I guess.

PSG' approach kills any team that tries to sit back like Inter last night.
Patience, positional rotations, never losing possession, skillful dribblers and technicians, and you bet they will always carve open any defense that is passive

They humiliated Liverpool in the 1st leg who also tried to do the same.
But Arne woke up in the return leg and exposed the problems PSG have. As Arsenal and Villa did in the return legs as well.
PSG have trouble with aggressive pressing, and in transitions. Also in the air, their defense is weak
We can take care of them next season

Still lacks a touch of pace for me to become a truly world class winger. That will be his big Achilles heel and will see if he can overcome it.

It's okay feasting on Inter's grandad's and Trent 'can't defend' Arnold. He beats his man but can't sprint away from him. Unlike Lamine who beats you once and you are dead. That's the difference between the two.

Lack of pace means he could move more central in the coming years as if you stick a quick full back on him, I think you could contain him fairly easily.

He actually has more pace than Yamal based on UEFA stats (Doue's top speed is 33.83 km/h and average speed is 31.35 per game). Yamal's top speed is 32.18 km/h and average speed is 30.53 per match.

I don't think he needs to be lightning quick, but I agree that he can do more damage in central areas. Let's see how he unfolds next season

Yes because who else has any dribbling ability? Balde was out otherwise Barca would probably have done similar.
