Takam Fabrice

After that you will be saying he’s this and this right Blackman and black sense

Zakari Samira

Even when he played just 20mins the other, he still got injured 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️
Sooo we just hope he doesn’t get injured soon again 
But....

MA_ib 

There’re more crucial games than this! Dembele is not the player you can risk on! Play 20-15 minutes is already a risk 🤦🏻‍♂️

PëRr¥🔵🔴

Guy you get mind oh.
So you want him to be out for another 4months?

Function Guy....

Dembele is a good player that can stugle to get goal for us so i think we should start him and see the outcome

Nana Yaw

Kosta, why can't we take that risk and start Dembele, this is a crucial match and we need that victory 😞

Please make sure you differentiate btn what publishers write and what the individual says. The article never quoted Xavi himself saying he'll play Demebele for 20-15mins nor says Araujo will start the game. Don't blame Xavi bcos never said that at his press. Bloggers are fond of cooking up fake stories to generate traffic

it's all lies, how can a coach expose his tactics to the public before the most important match like against Benfica
