Salah's technique is infinity times better than Dembele. Note: Better than Dembele. Not hard consider this is Dembele, his technique is mediocre at best (first touch lol).

You are educated sir. Please never respond again.

I am pretty sure by now you haven't watched an entire Salah game your whole life.

You keep posting comps for kids that cherry-pick the best moments and wonder goals.

Start by watching whole games and then come back to argue again

This is oversimplification pal...
It depends how the team plays and what exactly the RW profile is.

if the RW is supposed to be a wide forward, tasked with starting from the half-space and receiving in goal-scoring positions to finish, you go with Salah
if the RW plays on the touchline, tasked with creating space via dribbling and assisting in the box, you go with Dembele
That's the thing though, if those are the options to choose from, Salah is to be prioritized.
Much rather have a Salah in his perfect element than Dembele since Salah is much more of a game changer in reality.

Dembele is like a much better type of Adama in the sense that there's a lot of POTENTIAL to be a game changer, but he doesn't fullfil that role in a top top team. Dembele is still waiting for his exploding moment (for example like that CL season Vini had). He's 26 now but in a way it's felt like he's always been 22, maybe because of his injuries.

Salah would've done much better than Dembele at RW for Barca the last few years even if he wouldn't have a tailor-made role.

Agree with that, Dembouz still need a worldclass cl season, he was unlucky though that he played for a bad Barca last years and had a lot of injuries so atm i rate Mo definitely over Dembouz

My favourite performance from salah was against roma in 2018, man was unplayable. Real was lucky that he got injured in final, until his injury Liverpool was better....

Come on, Mo and Dembele shouldn't even be a conversation.

Now Dembele does fill a tactical function to a tea though. We would be a better side with him.
Por "we would be a better side with Dembele" que

That statement would be worth something if it wasn't the worst attack Barca has had in like 25-30 years outside of those initial Xavi months with Depay and co.

He's a bum of a player and you manage to find redeeming qualities in him while being the first in line to point out "tactical nightmare" Messi

I would have Saka and the Leroy Sane 2023 edition over Dembele too. They simply step up vs. better opposition something Dembele almost never does or did.

There's a million excuses made for Dembele by people. He'll turn 27 soon and yet to have a single consistent year where he's been world class. Just a moments player that will have two incredible months followed up with four shit ones.

"Watch the whole game" :lol:

Every one watch and know Salah tears EPL apart, know that Salah has good touch and can use his technique in tight space, crowded area.

Every one watch the whole game and know Dembele's touch is shite. In tight space, he is dead.

Please never respond again. You are embrassing yourself.

Saka vs Dembele is similiar to Salah vs Dembele (lmao, why this even debate).

Dembele is better at taking on his opponent 1 on 1 (when he has enough space, probably the most dangerous winger in one on one now) and better at creating chances (like Lucho said recently that Dembele doesn't care, he just tries everything).

Saka is superior in other aspects (or simply better at football).

You guys need a messi forum where you can speak 24/7 about a player who isnt here since nearly 3 years while we barca fans can write here about barca on barcaforum.com :ROFLMAO:

The 2023 version of Leroy is crazy, should improve his finishing a bit but otherwise this guy playing like matured player and a big reason next to Kane why Bayern has been top in offense this season
