Yep. My dream signing now (I feel Mbappe will be Madrid bound).
Ousmane Dembele | Fee agreed with Dortmund, medical on Monday, Barca go from MSN to LSD

His dribbling is insane. Needs to learn to be composed. Bewildering that Dortmund got him fairly easily at a price like that.
I disagree. He's not scoring a lot, but he's usually not that far off. Most of the time he's just missing half a meter or a bit of force for a goal, but you can see that he has good ideas. I wouldn't be suprised at all if he turned out to be a good scorer once he calms down a bit infront of goal. Just look at his goals in the cup semi and cup final.
Here's some more comprehensive footage of him.
Unfortunately Bundesliga blocks everything on youtube, so it's always only cup matches and international stuff.
Not sure what people are suddenly so surprised about. He shat on us last Summer and the talent was pretty evident.
The question mark has always been attitude. There were some absolute horror stories but nothing much since he went to Dortmund. Probably best for him to stay and develop there.

I have no doubt he will be good goal scorer and player with lot of end product. He is proper two footed player and defenders most of the time can't judge which side he will move, for that reason alone he is near unstoppable in the box. With more experience he will put on much better numbers.
He's a joy to watch
No idea mate, don't run a player library like others seem to. I just remember reading about some very immature and unprofessional things he did back in France and made a mental note: "head not screwed on tight?". That's all.
Mbappe I have the exact opposite view of. When people say he has only 6 months to show, etc. all I care for is his head clearly seems to be right. If his head is right you can confidently project those 6 months forward, while you couldn't with someone like Robinho, for example.
Martial - Morata - Dembele
Mkhi
Pogba - Herrera/Fabinho
Mendy - Lindelof - Bailly - Valencia
De Gea

A man can dream.
How in the name of all that is holy do so many of these kinds of players end up in Dortmund? Do we have a scout in France?
Let's get this guy over here before Barsa sells someone and can afford him.

He ripped up Ligue 1 at Rennes. There was plenty of interest from a lot of clubs he just chose Dortmund.
You're speaking my language
That's the thing though, he didn't do anything in France as far as I can remember. The only story about him is that in 2015 the manager told him that he wasn't in his plan and Dembélé through his agent told the club that it was best to let him go, other than that he has been described by everyone like a nice and respectful kid.
Were we one of them?
I am not sure I just remember Bayern being really interested as well.
Dortmund will probably sell to Bayern for 30M
Why a sudden uptick in posts on this thread? I doubt Dortmund would sell him after one season.
I think he did ever say he was a United fan or always played with United on the PS, but he has set his mind on Barcelona it seems.
Would take this chap over Mbappe everyday of the week.
Unbelievable dribbling skills, exactly what I think we're missing.

France 3-2 England
He's the exact type of quality that we need here. We don't need a workhorse like Perisic, we need flair and creativity and he has that in abundance.
He's probably on 50k a week at Dortmund so I'd imagine his head can be turned if we told him that we'd quadruple that and make him the main man out wide.

Thought there was news when I saw the bump.
Just hope.
Mbappe is Ronaldo. Dembele is Messi.
No. Ronaldo was far more exciting to watch. Mbappe looks like new Ronaldo.
Neither are either.
His fake shots are an art, they're incredible effective at the same time which is something you don't see with these young players nowadays. I'd say his fake shots are better than Ronaldo's chops ever were.
I know he's still young, but this guy is going to become a world class player. Barca will be all over him.
If by we you mean the Caf then definitely
In all seriousness, I don't remember, but Bayern and PSG were both definitely linked with him.
Wet dream
I like him. A lot.
Can't say I disagree. Both great talents but Dembele would be the perfect fit for us at the moment.
Annoyingly that isn't even that far off either. Dembele/Fabinho/Mendy is going to cost us what, 150m? that's easily achievable. If Martial could find his last year form we would be on fire.
This guy is my dream signing at the current moment. Such a joy to watch, and everything we need from our wingers. Watching Dembele last night and remembering we have Lingard on our wing is difficult to take.
Try more £200m and Dembele simply isn't on the market we aren't getting him
Doesn't have to be in the market, money talks.
Just think what they would have won if they had kept those players :O That team could definitely rival Bayern and go very far in the CL.
You just described a player of his age... in a few years he will learn maturity... he reminds me of Cristano.
Very very high price... we shouldn't spend that much.... But we are so desperate now, I think we have to.
No chance. Those 3 at current market rates would be £200m minimum.
Fabinho has a 40m release clause, Mendy was approx 30m, Barca bid 50m for Dembele already, they would surely accept 60-80m for a young player they only bought for 12m last year.
I notice Mendy being very highly rated. But was he any better last night than Bertrand? Seems a good crosser of the ball and gets to the byline.
He was injured early in the game. But I love the power and speed he gives you on the left.
