LaLiga 2018-19: FC Barcelona 2-0 Villarreal CF -  5 Talking Points

#1 Ousmane Dembele found his spot in the right wing

Crochet, crochet, crochet: Dembele

How the tables have turned. Not long before, Spanish media and newspapers were roasting Ousmane Dembele for his attitude and discipline. And three games after the international break, he has come up guns blazing, shutting his critics up and helping his team.

Dembele enjoyed himself on the pitch, didn't he? He was so confident on the ball. He has an unreal amount of pace that Villarreal never got the better of. The prime mischief maker in the right wing, he made a deadly combination in the right wing with Semedo, running in behind a lot of times. He created the goal for Gerard Pique.

From the right wing, he could burst at any moment and he would be in behind the defence. The only thing that lacks is choice of the final pass or maybe hesitation to shoot. That would not take much time to fix. The Camp Nou applauded their gem every time he touched the ball and cheered his dribbles.

He might not have the weak foot but still is much better in operating in the right wing. Since Alba would demand space, Dembele would have to move into the half-space where he is not deadly. Even when Suarez returns, Valverde shouldn't look to change Dembele's position. A 4-4-3 with Suarez on the left and then moving towards centre shouldn't be that bad. The only reason, the experienced ones are better to be put out of position than youngsters.

Camp Nou enjoyed him, he enjoyed himself, did you?
