Does he play either side? Exciting dribbler, what is his end product like? 8 goals and 14 assists in 39 Apps for Blackpool for a winger is pretty decent. Not sure whether he can play on either side, Only slight concern is he is very short, same sort of height as DWP, but hopefully thats what makes him such a good dribbler DWP’s problem wasn’t just his height. There’s no way he’d be pulling in those stats in league one.

How does Dembele compare to Poku?

The next big thing he was. Until a Bristol defender clogged him in a friendly a few years ago.

How does Dembele compare to Poku? Similar goal, nearly double the assist in what you could call a worse side, that being said I'm pretty sure Dembele played behind the striker quite often last season

That’s the one. When he was younger, him, Bellingham and Musiala were the only 3 players to play up a level playing for England in a youth tournament, so you can see how highly he was rated.

He must have stopped growing. Used to sign him on Football Manager when I played it I'd be pretty excited about this one if there's any truth. Bobcat got a bit of the Leris about him for me but will reserve judgement

If we were in for him do you think he'd just been in rotation/competition with Million for that right wing spot, if we had both in the squad you'd be reluctant to deprive either of playing time

Hes very promising but don't know if he is capable of playing week in and week out at a good level. Would be very good to rotate bae/ million with him though.

Wikipedia says 5'6 so he's probably actually about 5'2 based on oatcake logic If we keep buying shorter players the small ones will start to look bigger. 5'11" according to transfermarkt

Don't shoot the messenger may or may not be right but been told today from a Southwest customer that we're trying to sign Morgan Whittaker from Plymouth and we've offered Lewis Baker to them to get the fee down, like I said could be way off the mark but this customer has strong links with Plymouth and his company are club sponsors

I very much doubt we will be after Whittaker, he plays in Manhoefs position and not the type of striker we need.

If we were to play with a more attacking central midfielder as well, then perhaps the three of them could just interchange their position throughout the game? All seem to be able to play across that line.

Don't see where Whittaker fits, although you can't turn your nose up at someone who put 20 away for a side facing relegation. Think the money would be better spent on Stansfield/Cannon/Delap

Whittaker in the middle then ? He plays for Plymouth on the right can't see this one He can play anywhere across the front 3. He played primarily Left wing under schuey. If we had him bae and million behind a striker who knows where the goal is could be so dangerous. However, I cant imagine he would come to us as they reportedly rejected a £20 million bid in January from Lazio. I remember Rooney subbing him on in the 25th minute for Derby then subbing him off 20 mins later so maybe he isnt too happy about the new manager?

I also think he might be a bit of a one season wonder.
Doesn't convince me at all.

Thats a possibility and he seemed to drop off the second half of the season Derby fans didn't rate him However stunning two seasons for him, the manager link is hugely beneficial, if he's genuinely adept left and central as well as right side if the money works(Baker going the other way makes sense) it's definitely one to think about My guess would be Plymouth didn't get anywhere near as high offers as reported as otherwise they would have sold him already Still going to be a big fee though you'd think (?)

I'm sure he's mostly played on the left under Schumacher. Also I think lazio offered 8m euros I think.
