Fair enough with the PSG goal, that was this season. Genuinely don't think anything he does in Scotland matters to the absolute top-level sides. |

he would have significantly improved Arsenal yesterday although I will accept the inevitable reply that they may no longer be a "top level" EPL team

You've answered yer own point Jim. Arsenal with Alexis Ozil and Lacazette probably wouldn't have room for him either. However, as they drop further and further away he'll start to look a decent option for them. But Wenger is too arrogant to look up here . I'd have said Everton would have been a decent shout for Moussa, until they signed that Turkish boy. Other than that he wouldn't get near the other sides. |

The PSG goal was a swing and a deflection from a rehearsed move FFS. Anyone thinking you're going to get a massive bid on the back of that needs their bumps felt. Imagine we were signing someone and that was their youtube highlight reel? Bangura level.

Only one of the goals I mention was a penalty. But considering a penalty at 1-0 down against BMG (which he won) could be considered a high pressure situation he done well. Admittedly he did miss one vs Barca. All of this "not good enough yet" stuff is nonsense tbh. When will we know he's good enough? When he goes to some middle of the road pish and has a good season? His goals in the CL are worth more than 10-12 in the Prem. Batshuyai won a move to Chelsea with a similar record to Dembele. The difference is Dembele would be classified as a home grown player. |

40 goals in 70 Celtic games, despite a big section of two campaigns being significantly hampered by hamstring injuries from mid April to October. On top of 15 Championship goals in a season at age 19, and currently being among the best of the current France U21 team, it is not exactly bang average is it? |

He's not yet. He's got the materials to improve though. Do you seriously think he's good enough for Man U, Spurs, Liverpool, Man City, Barcelona, Real, Munich et al. Not even remotely effing close to it yet. |

The majority of 21 year olds these players sign don't go right into the first team. They are squad players who improve. Could Dembele be a squad player at Man U, Spurs, Liverpool and Man City? Yes. He's a player with immense potential. He is built perfectly for England and he scores in big games. Assuming he doesnt suffer any long term injuries he'll end up at one of the clubs you've mentioned. Maybe not directly from us but that would be more their fault than his. Edited by Ste, 15 Jan 2018, 03:26 PM.

What do you mean by ready? As in he's not ready to play 45 games a season and be the top man? If he was signed that isn't what he would be asked to do right now. Dembele would be a great option for a few of the bigger Premier League clubs right now. |

These teams won't buy him because they won't view him as ready. You've practically said the same thing yourself. Whether we like it or not, top EPL teams or European teams won't take much of a look at Dembele until he proves himself consistently at a higher level than he is at just now. He'll likely have to sign for an Everton or a Southampton burn it up by getting 12/15 goals before people take him as seriously as you do now. The boy clearly has talent but at the moment I don't see big teams taking the risk with the readies for him at this stage. I don't think those teams are wrong. You do. No big deal. |
