Xavi Hernandez: Barça's Dembele has to believe in himself more
The winger is a favourite of the coach but he wants him to give the team even more
Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez said he is happy with Ousmane Dembele but called on the winger to come up with the goods on a more consistent basis.
"He has so much potential and we are happy with how professional he has been since we arrived," Xavi said. "He makes a difference in many games, but he has to believe in himself and do it much more. Because he can do it."
Xavi continued: "He needs to do it every day because he can and in every game, he should give us more. He is a difference-maker and has shown that. Physically he is good and he has to try a few more things because his quality is impressive."
Dembele has been a regular since Xavi took charge and even renewed his contract at Camp Nou, largely because of the coach, when it looked like he may leave.
Xavi now wants him to keep delivering on the right wing but giving even more, if he can.
