He's certainly got a lot of skill with the ball at his feet, but a lot of improvement is required in his general game before he can be thinking about playing at a higher level. His small and slight stature is going to count against him because he's not really quick in the way that some small players are - SWP for example.

Biggest thing he needs to do for me is improve his first touch a great deal and then work on his overall gameplay because he should really be looking for the pass much more often than he does. If the opposition know you're going to try and dribble past them every time you get the ball, you're too predictable - let the ball and your teammates do more of the work and keep them guessing.

Hopefully, we'll stay up this season and then sign some better midfielders so he gets the chance to receive the ball in more advanced areas of the field where he can do some damage.

I don't see how he's any better than someone like Dom Vose at this point. In fact you could argue that Vose offered much more end product than Dembele, and he's now slumbing it in a conference relegation fight.

This is laughable, Dembele is not even playing well for us, he has no chance of playing in the Championship or Premier.  He is bog standard at best and so over rated in my opinion.  Would he have got into a successful Buckley team............  not a chance....

Just heard the Dembele interview on Hullberside.........doesn't sound like he will be here next season  

We need to make sure we get a fee for him if we can.

Also, don't we have an option on his contract for next season? So if MJ wants him here, then he will be!

Just heard the interview on RH, didn’t sound committed to the club one little bit. Sounded to me like he wanted out in January, also seemed like he doesn’t want the club to extend his deal and I highly doubt he’ll be here in August no matter what league we end up in.

Also regarding the Prem/Championship interested, I wonder wether they were Scottish teams. He’s played up there and if that clause hasn’t been activated then they could’ve approached him from January 1st onwards to sign him on a pre contract agreement in July.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

He was evasive on nearly every question put to him and seemed to be controlled by his agent.

Sounded like a young naive lad who was hi jacked by a prepared clever journalist to me. At the minute he's obviously not sure what league we will be in. Might not be sure if Town will want to keep him and under a new manager not sure how he fits in to that. I'm not quite sure what else we can expect. At least he's not kissing the badge with crossed fingers.
