i think he has made huge improvements lately - the main one releasing the ball before he gets beat. Now he needs to build some goal scoring confidence.
A talented coach/manager should improve players, Dembele has regressed since we signed him from Fulham. With Poch's guidance, he should fulfil his potential.
"However, the former Fulham star has not always been deployed in a position from where he can score goals.
At Tottenham, Dembele has often played in a reserved role, and that is one of the main reasons why he has scored just once in the Premier League in almost two years."
You need to a very good player to score from the reserve role. ;-)
It's not simply about shooting more and with greater accuracy. Dembele never runs beyond the ball. He didn't do it from a deeper role and he's still not doing it now.
Contrast that with the way Mason and Bentaleb both move off the ball. It's a massive flaw in his game.
