#4 Dembele produces another masterful display
Nobody is doubting Ousmane Dembele's talent. The young Frenchman has tons of it, but it is his temperament which has hindered his progress at Barcelona. But his situation seems to have taken a turn for the best, and his display against Espanyol was a testament to that.
He scored a sumptuous goal with a curling effort to make it 2-0 before he slipped in a perfect pass for Luis Suarez to score. Dembele made 3 key passes, 3 tackles, and completed 2 dribbles. His link-up play with Messi and Suarez was pretty good, and despite some loose moments, it was an impactful performance by the youngster.
Philippe Coutinho was left on the bench, and Dembele's showing might convince Valverde that this front three is good to go for Barca. This season in the LaLiga, Dembele's goals and assists have earned crucial points for the Catalans. It seems as though he has cemented his starting spot now, so expect more of the same.
