DYC. 7,542 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I have a sneaky feeling Spurs will get him when they sell Modric. Shame we are not after him, would be excellent in the double pivot, especially for £10m.£10 mil? I find that hard to believe as that would be an absolute steal.I'd even get him for £20-£25 mil really. He'd make a wonderful addition to the team. I'd much rather have him than Fellaini. Having a CM with his work-rate and who can defend like him combined with his excellent ball retention is ideal. He's also a wonderful dribbler and a solid passer. He's as strong as a ox as well, fast too. Still needs to work on a few areas thoigh, especially his off the ball movement in possession.A midfield three with Oscar, Dembele & Mikel/Romeu, yes please.

He has a year left on his contract and despite saying he is happy to stay, he still hasn't signed a new deal. I agree with everything else you said, one of the most underrated players in the league and a joy to watch. When Spurs sell Modric I think they'll go for him.

When Spurs sell Modric I think they'll go for him.Didn't know he only had a year left on his contract. Even more the reason for us to get him (but no links sadly). But looking at Nasri, who also had just 1 year left on his contract, joining City for 25 mil, I think Fulham would demand more than 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamjack 8 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'm glad other Chelsea fans rate Dembele too i thought it was just me at first before i joined this forum.Got such a lovely ability on the ball i would love him here.The only problem i find with him is maybe his end product,I also see Spurs making a move for him but i doubt they will pay anything more than 10 million for him considering he has only 1 year on his contact left. Defiantly a player we need to keep an eye, hopefully we are in for him next summer, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he moves to a bigger club and people see him playing every week I guess he will get noticed more.Agreed, his end product isn't the best. That's probably why Jol moved him deeper in the midfield. Rarely do you see him lose the ball, even in the tightest of situations. The burst of acceleration to beat opponents aswell, he makes it look so easy.

TrippingStep 336 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Great ball holder and good work ethic but doesn't move the ball quickly enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Great ball holder and good work ethic but doesn't move the ball quickly enough for me.I have to admit there are times were he holds the ball for too long.Strange to believe he went from being a striker to a central midfielder ain't it? He doesn't score anywhere near enough goals for you to even consider he was a striker before! Still 10 million would be a snip for him, his dribbling is excellent, his upper body strength is also brilliant. He keeps the ball really well, if we get him then I would be delighted. Can play a handful of positions too. Didn't he also get the most tackles in the PL last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Did anyone know Fulham have 2 Moussa Dembele's on their books? They're not even related or anything, one's an u18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippingStep 336 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Yes but I think his problem upfront was that he lacked a rythm change to speed up things and a lack of creativity.I'm not sure he would fit in the new playing style we want with quick passing in midfield.

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Yes but I think his problem upfront was that he lacked a rythm change to speed up things and a lack of creativity.I'm not sure he would fit in the new playing style we want with quick passing in midfield.yeah it can go either way. either a calm head in midfield he would help slow things down, instead of running round nd round nd round. or just be a fish out of water. and dembele your right holds ball for ages, but he gets things done so i guess just have take it as is.

TrippingStep 336 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Yes a calm head but we need someone that can do both, slow and speed up things. I'm not sure Dembele can speed up things when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton 2,120 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Jol probably won't sell, said a couple of times he's theire most imortant player..Altough, hasn't he only one year left of contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Dembele, Fellaini or Witzel? damn those Belguims are insane, they should be such a fine team in the next WC.I think Dembele is someone who fits our midfield perfectly, more than the other two maybe.
