I was trying to think who Dembele reminded me off and realised that it was not one individual but two.

Inside the box he reminds me of Shearer, in that he can score from anywhere in the box, either by a powerful shot or with the head and is very aggressive.

Outside the box he reminds me of Thierry Henry in that he is quick, powerful and skillful. He can fly past players with ease if he is given space to run at them and can make opportunities out of nothing.

Don't get me wrong he is not at either of these players level yet but I have been very impressed and it would not surprise me if he reaches that level in the next 5 years or so.

can remember at least 3 occasions where he was defending corners and he won the ball to clear the danger.

Was trying to think who and someone mentioned him and the penny dropped.

He reminds me of Dembele . He is his own man and even though he is only 20 years old he doesn't want to confine himself to be anyone of these stars that have gone before them . His aims and objectives are not based on anyone player and it's wrong for us to limit him in our minds either
Don't put stupid pressure on him to be like this one or that one.
