PSG – The Christmas tree: the one that sometimes upsets you

Obviously talented, Ousmane Dembélé is still slow to show consistency. Provoking the ire of supporters, often, and of his coach, from time to time.

With Ousmane Dembélé, there are two categories of speakers who often appear. Those who, on social networks, parody the player, supporting videos with “comic” scenes where we see people falling to the ground. Then those, most often former players or journalists, who believe that the Parisian striker is still slow to confirm at the highest level despite obvious technical qualities.

This is the case of Jérôme Rothen who, after a draw in the Champions League against PSV Eindhoven (1-1) assured that “Dembélé was missing the point. Will he be able at his age to question himself, when you have been on alternating current so often like that, I don't know. I have a big doubt. Last year, I'm glad he scored two important goals, notably the one against Barça. He has enormous qualities but give him the keys to helping PSG win. It was not on him that we had to bet to go very high. »

The numbers speak for themselves

Yet this is what Luis Enrique, his trainer, did, despite temporary crises between the two men and Dembélé sometimes being sent to the sidelines. And we can't always prove wrong all those who say that PSG is doing better with the French international than without. The figures confirm this, with Dembélé still having, this season, no fewer than 8 goals in 15 Ligue 1 matches to his credit. The performance could certainly be better. Because of an undeniable talent which sometimes pisses off the supporters.
