Ousmane Dembele

I guess it begs the question: is a crocked Dembele, even playing nine games, more useful than Dan James?

for those 9 games, certainly; for the other 29 it's too close to call.

That’s the answer I was looking for.

Shame Dan James can’t set anyone up.

It is quite incredible how a winger blessed with phenomenal pace has this uncanny ability to be unable to get past static defenders.

That’s what annoys me the most about him.

He needs to watch videos of Adama Traore.

its so weird, because he was great for the first 10 games last season but then dropped off a huge welsh cliff.

Ya he showed real promise but now I watch him and think if I trained with United 5 days a week would I actually be any worse than him?

Adama Traore actually has decent close control.

Dan James needs to watch this....

I quite like him. I wouldn’t mind him being a panic buy on the last day of the window if we can’t get anyone better.

Not really a fan. I find him frustrating as he’s so brainless. He could be a useful squad option for a reasonable price. Not sure we’d get a reasonable price.

Would love traore. He just doesn't go down, just gets up and tries to carry on running. Surprised no one has tried to come in for him. It's rare you get such a unit with such good ball control, normally big guys are more punt and chase like Valencia.

Probably because he’s not actually that good. Doesn’t even nail down a spot for Wolves, often does better off the bench.

That is an upgrade on James though.

Of course, but it’s not a surprise nobody has gone for him.

Quite a lot of players are.

I would rather have Zaha than Dembele. he has matured a lot and is a real game changer. The only issue is that he isn't really playing on the right for Palace, so wouldn't quite address that particular need for us.

posted on 30/9/20

I wouldn’t say that’s the only issue. He hated living in Manchester and was really piiiiissed off with how the club treat him. I’d be very, very surprised if Zaha ever player for Manchester United again.

can't say i blame him, he's seen james play almost 50 games for united, and lingard manage 6 seasons and over 200 games, whereas he was basically shipped out after 6 months and 4 appearances.

given that he agreed to join a club that were on their way to winning the league under one of the greatest managers of all time, i doubt he'd be quite as enthusiastic to join as a squad player under the current set up.

But he has played for Ole before and they have a good relationship apparently. He will also have a point to prove. Woy mentioned in an interview that Zaha is eager to prove himself at the top and in Europe. I do hope someone comes info him, because he wasn't treated well by us as you've highlighted, he certainly is good enough to play for a EL/CL team.
