Dembele

Yeah I agree and can't see starting tomoz. Hopefully we can get a few goals, be comfortable and then critch will bring him on... you know like reading game, perfect opportunity but brings him on in the 89 min 🤔 guess we best score 5 early doors then :)
 
Haven’t seen him play yet, but he has sounded lively in the brief spells he has had on the pitch.
How would Critchley fit him in though ? As a striker? An attacking midfielder? A wing back? Playing 3-5-2 you don’t really need wingers.
I might be wrong, but it seems to me that Critchley has identified CJ as our best attacking threat, and has decided that playing him as a wing back gives him the best chance to attack the opposition with the ball at his feet facing forwards and with the possibility to build up a head of steam with the ball.
It’s working a bit, and Owen Dale is helping things work out OK at the moment.
Maybe if CJ is unavailable we will see more 4-4-2, or 4-4-3, which would help Dembele get more game time for sure.
 
He links play really well from what I've seen, from defence to attack or midfield to attack.

If he helps us play through sides and Kouassi us play over them, he long up play etc, than it should gove us a better chance with teams having to deal with both effective ways.

He might have been the sort of player we needed on Saturday, to pick a correct pass and take away the pressure.
 
Might play him as a number 10 if we had Lyons and Gabriel starting as wingbacks but no way will he get a start in that position with Hamilton and Dale playing out wide.

He Kouassi them long us over up play them. Michael Gove the effective chancer swings both ways.

Why did we sign him if we're not going to give him some game time it baffles me.
We signed him because of his ability to win matches and change a game not to sit on a bench.
Let's attack teams and let them worry about us rather than us worry about them.
He's a loan signing not permanent which puts a different slant on the argument.
Could he be another Poveda from last season?
Brilliant one minute and shite the rest.

For me he doesn't fit in to our current system so just an impact sub at mo because I can't see Critch changing the 3-5-2 to accommodate him.

Probably play him CB knowing Neil
 
Dembele must have ended up with us for a reason. Probably to do with consistency and maybe working out how to fit him into a system. Is there room for unpredictable maverick any more?

I agree, from what little I’ve seen so far he passes the ball very well and can beat a man, just what we are currently lacking

And not playing the loan signings last season worked very well! 😂
