Dembele was fine in Rennes and Dortmund. The issue was in Barca, where they didn’t know how to handle him physically properly.

 

He wasn’t serious with his diet obviously but he’s fixed it.

 

Deschamps likes him a lot, and he’s obsessed with discipline and behavior.

 

The real issue is his fitness because he’s been injured so many times. 

Has Deschamps said he likes him? He still does get picked when he isn't injured, but has there been a comment about him from Deschamps, like that he likes him as a person? I haven't seen it.

 

I think with Dembele, everyone rates him. He can make things happen in any game. But I think everyone wishes he could be healthy and that he'd get out of his own way. He is a risk with his wage demands as well.

 

At Rennes, he was so promising as a teenager, so talented. Two footed, end product, speed...

This may be old news but the big thing I learned from this tweet is that Arsenal fan TV favourite DT has been guilty of stalking his ex and had his sentence tripled.

Its the Academy League I think.

 

I wonder if the computer has picked up the 8 from the previous column

( assists ? )

Yeah, PL2 is the Under 23s league.

 

As for the number of bookings, it does look like that Transfermarkt have made a little booboo there.

 

If you check his overall career stats, he's picked up 7 yellow cards over 3 seasons in PL2:

In the 20/21 season, he picked up 5 bookings according to the detailed stats:

3 of the 5 bookings were right at the end of games that Fulham were winning, so I'd suggest the bookings were for time-wasting.

Off the pitch he's not really matured though, fined by the courts while at Dortmund for trashing a rented house, going on strike to force a move to Barca, staying up late gaming and being late for training on numerous occasions.

 

Coupled with the injuries, the money being asked for is a massive risk for someone who is yet to really apply himself.

As far as Deschamps is concerned, it’s the same. If he doesn’t like you, you won’t get picked. Deschamps is really faithful to him. But he indeed told him to be more professional a couple of years ago.

Likely, and I'd guess a few of the ones in the EPL2 was likely a reaction to some of the tackles he was getting.

And he had the nerve to slag off Arsene Wenger? YouTube is full of cunts.

There's some red flags with that Carvalho lad. 

 

Why would a 19 year old who is appearing regularly for a side challenging for promotion to the Premier League be looking to leave if it wasn't about money?

 

Throw in the Jorge Mendes factor and we'd be advised to stay well clear. 

 

He probably wants to play under Klopp after seeing what Elliot has done. Carvalho would probably get games after a season acclimatisation period to get him used to our style. Elliot was the best teenager in the Championship last season and Carvalho is the best this season.
