Tbf, he was kicked from pillar to post with no protection from the ref.
[/ref was very weakQUOTE]
Yes, best to replace him with someone who can make a 3 yard pass backwards or sideways.….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
It’s like people can only fit a single 90 minute game in their little brainsIf you don’t appreciate Dembele then football isn’t for you.
The fact he is the only player on the pitch with any form of skill or ability is why teams put a player on him.
Awful thread.
he was off it today but to call him a waste of space tells everyone you’re clueless….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
Fuck me, I know it’s polite to respect your elders and all that but you lot are making it bloody hard.….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
Bollocks … imagine actually posting that….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
Bowler when he was class in the Championship…….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
He can’t seem to stay uprightEvery team puts two players on him and he gets booted nearly every time he gets the ball. I dare say if he had better players around him he would be more effective. He’ll often be looking to make a pass into space but there’s nobody on the same wavelength.
Championship and Prem teams are tracking him, not bad for a waste of space.
Every team has now worked out if you stop him playing and cut off the supply to him then that’s 95% of our creativity gone.Every team puts two players on him and he gets booted nearly every time he gets the ball.

He’s not physical so I suppose that will happen. If you’re getting fouled every time you get the ball and there’s very little in front of you, it probably gets frustrating. Maybe why he goes off the boil sometimes.He can’t seem to stay upright
Yeah I agree. There’s very little apart from him.Every team has now worked out if you stop him playing and cut off the supply to him then that’s 95% of our creativity gone.
This is where you need some other options. Just shut down Dembele’s side and we’re screwed.
Their player must have committed 10 fouls on him, given by the ref but no card, whereas we got one straight away.Tbf, he was kicked from pillar to post with no protection from the ref.
Wow….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
I actually agree with this. The fawning over him has been overwhelming and completely unjustified.….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
featherweight yes, but poor first touch? A truly farcical comment.I actually agree with this. The fawning over him has been overwhelming and completely unjustified.
A fund to buy him? Some people cannot see the woods for the trees. Yeah he's tricky and can have flashes of brilliance but so can CJ Hamilton. I put them in the same bracket. He has poor first touch, is featherweight spending half the game on his arse and is missing for most of the time.
Reminds me of a talented 12 year old trying to get involved in a mens game.

Same again today. And ends up stretching to try and get the ball when he should have controlled the ball. Did this multiple times.Poor first touch?!!
He’s literally got the best first touch of any of our players. He had a couple of poor first touches at Northampton and the commentators mentioned how unusual it was.
I’ve heard it all nowYeah he's tricky and can have flashes of brilliance but so can CJ Hamilton. I put them in the same bracket.
Dembele is a winger, we could go 4-4-2 now!I do think that when he goes we might actually have a chance that Critch will go with a 4-4-2 ..
Aye he's that good we're pissing the league aren't we?I’ve heard it all now
You have a point that’s worth saying….Is a waste of space. Absolutely nothing from him…again !
I daren't even think what your view might be of certain of his colleagues ...If you think Dembele is crap then you must have some serious issues .
Spot on post. More evidence that Critchley doesn't know what he is doing.First half today, particularly the first half hour, Dembele would get the ball turn & run at Derby. Unfortunately he was getting the ball mid way inside our half, & ain’t going to trick his way through an opposition from there. Dembele needs the ball in the final third.
The getting the ball deep is indicative of Critchley’s persistence of playing 3 centre backs. Play a 433/442/4321 system (2defenders) & you push the team up the pitch - ie giving players like Dembele better opportunity to receive the ball in more attacking areas.
