Seconded.

Yamal is in the best position to win it regardless of what other fans are saying.

Aside Mbappe, which will be tight decider, nobody has what it takes to win it than Yamal. That guy should not let mob hatred towards Barcelona players leads him to condemn and belittle his own.

Yamal for Balon d'or

Yes ooo. Yamal should say anything he wants in the media. If it'll help him win the award, he should do it. Or may be he's saying all that to stay motivated just like how Ronaldo did in the past. Afterall, he won the greatest trophy in sports as starter, also won laliga as best player. I'm actually enjoying Yamal's campaign. He should rile up the media well.

Yamal should motivate himself!!!

Kilishihunter:
Won world cup starting all games when fit? You mentioned something about he having more trophies early and I mentioned Fabian Ruiz who won both the UCL and world cup, the hamstring issue didn't let him have the world cup he was supposed to have so why are we still hammering on this. Lamine won the league's best player, didn't olise win his too? Alright let's exclude olise, we both know he wasn't the best player last season but cause of he's ours we have to back him even though we're at some disadvantages? Let me tell me why I'm really against this sudden pr. When the time comes for him to collect his ballon d'or cause obviously he has the talent to win multiple other players would start things like this. The club can back him without him getting interviewed talking smack about other teams and players. He doesn't have to move like mbappe is doing but saying these will seem as if it's not the same player we celebrate. Lamine is top 3 maybe 1 on his day in the world rn but I still reiterate this media push isn't worth it when he wasn't the best player last season

I've noticed a pattern and I'll tell you what's up. The problem is that you want Yamal to be humble like Messi, you want him to only show workings on the pitch, you want the la masia code of conduct, you want. Mes que un club Like you're preaching humility on Yamal but that's not gonna work and I wont support all that.

When Messi was doing all that, keeping quiet and staying humble, he was largely disrespected, people said he was pretending. When Messi was at his peak, Ronaldo who isn't up to Messi's right leg kept telling the media that he's the best and that he should win more bdor than Messi, people said he was doing so to motivate himself. Let Yamal also motivate himself. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Everything na motivation.

Ronaldo was so close to the media that it changed a narrative. Lemme tell you something you already know; Ronaldo and Messi no be mate for football. The reason why people even mention his name where Messi is nah media work.

If Yamal feels calling himself the best will get him the award, or if it'll motivate him to do better on the pitch, he should do it. Afterall, Ronaldo did it before him.

Since you're a barca fan, I called your initial comment sad because you mentioned Kane, Kvara and added Olise. Why didn't you mention Yamal instead who's the better player and had a better season including winning the world cup?

Kilishihunter:
Not according to me. Last season's performances did that. We crashed out in the UCL quarter finals, (not his fault) he sadly had a poor world cup cause of his injury but I should prop lamine for the best player of the season award, for what reason. And olise was better than him last season any conclusion anyone makes from it they're free to.

You still didn't answer my question. And I'll ask again. Yamal won laliga as best player, won world cup starting all games when fit. You say he shouldn't win, also said Mbape shouldn't win..

My question is how come you mentioned Olise as one of the top contenders but put down Yamal who had a better season. Or did Olise have a better season than Yamal?

Note: if it was Mbape who won Laliga, laliga best player, won the world cup on the pitch but with Yamal's world cup stats of 1goal or so, he woulved been the over whelming favourite for the award.

Jamiuokolaa:
•Slot
•Conte
•Gareth Southgate
•Thomas Frank
•Roberto Martinez

I think those would be the realistic options

Yeah. Those are very realistic options for a dead club like Manchester United. I genuinely think Gareth Southgate is next after Carrick is axed.

Kilishihunter:
Yamal doesn't deserve the ballon d'or for last season and there's nothing wrong to admit it. Same as mbappe. And this doesn't in any way affect my love for yamal

According to you, he doesn't deserve it, same with Mbape, good. But he was better than Olise last season, no?

Kilishihunter:
No it's not a sad comment. It's surprise on this sudden ballon d'or push when I know he wasn't the best player last season. The world cup was our last opportunity to seal it but his hamstring injury didn't let him recover in time to fully establish himself in the tourney. Did you even see the interview it left the ballon d'or to talks about other players and teams. Had to include rashford too. See we don't move like that at Barça that's one of the reasons we didn't like pendu. He said he would beg for the ballon d'or so what's this sudden push in the media all of a sudden. Who's telling him at the background to start saying these things.
If it's also by trophies do you think he has a chance against Fabian Ruiz who also won the world cup?

You're still echoing the sad comment i talked about. In addition to this, Kane, Mbape and Yamal and all begging for the bdor. The 3 of them are doing campaigns begging for it.

You said it's between Kane, Kvara and Olise and notice that I didn't have issues when you mentioned kvara and Kane.

My question is simple, how did Olise have a better season than Yamal. And why didnt you say it's between Kane, Kvara and Yamal.


Yamal was better than Olise last season, period!

Mcleo007:
Bro, you are just not team Balde!

Man came when the match was done and dusted. In such game against an inferior opponent, players spend more time in the opponents half. You will even see some goalies stepping out of their box.

Balde came on and started feeling like David Beckham. Smiling and applauding fans instead of doing a quick throw in for more goals. Adeyemi was like, baba throw ball, I want run go do make Yamal score, time dey go 🤣 😂 😹

On a serious note, he did well and should be rewarded. I think he should be second choice to Cancelo on the left, while Espart goes to the right to hustle with Garcia. Kounde should be sold and a new CB brought in.

Balde did well.

Jamiuokolaa:
This must be the joke of the century

What makes it a joke?
Alonso is not Pellegrini's mate for coaching.

I don't want Pellegrini but if you keep him and Alonso, I'll take Pellegrini. He's a proven top manager in Laliga and the EPL but he's very old now but still going strong with Betis.

Alonso no sabi abeg.

Kilishihunter:
I think between, Kane, kvaratskhelia olise. It's tough to admit but we both know he doesn't deserve it and doesn't need all this parapo

In ur quest to sound neutral, you ending up putting your best player down for Olise, smfh.

On reddit, someone asked, why do barca fans underate Yamal so much. That comment had over 1.2k upvotes. I'm on nairaland and I'm seeing the same thing. If this kind of attitude translate to the stadium, he'll leave. How you go mention say Olise should win bdor ahead of Yamal, you no dey watch ball?

There's no way you'll watch last season and think Olise had a better season than Yamal.

Sad comment from you considering the fact that he was the best player in Laliga, won laliga and world cup.

Kane, Mbape and Yamal are the front runners irrespective of what anybody says or feel.

fredoooooo:
Give Baba Thiago Balon D'or..

Baba, allow these kids to eat too.

Messi is now bigger than the B'Dor itself. Man was dragging golden boot with prime Mbape some months ago. That's not normal for a player of his age.

If he wins this one, he’ll win number 9, then number 10. Let’s stop here and do with what we have. Eight "8" is okay.

Remember that if you turn the number 8 on its side, it creates the infinity symbol (∞). The infinity symbol is a continuous looping shape indicating that there's no limit. Thats what Messi is, he's without limits.

It’s almost impossible to imagine a player ever winning 8 Ballon d’Ors again. Messi is an alien, he's out of this world.

By far the greatest player to ever play the game.

🐐!!!

Techu:
You already have a set notion about the player,

Same notion you have about De Jong.

Nothing they do on the pitch will convince, so no point.

Dejong nah otu midfielder, Balde get hope pass am and is promising. But he must convince Flick.

Techu:
You are a Balde hater.

No more Balde talks with you.

If he's good enough, he'll start games. Lol.

I hate no body in this world lol.

Techu:
How was his performance? You dey say bench player.


I prefer him over espart x10.

Cancelo should be number one for now.

His performance was meh. Wasn't impressive, just normal Balde ball.

Yep, he's a bench player!!!

Techu:
I told you guys Adeyemi is better than Gordon

Airbere how far
Balde.

He goes forward too much leaving the back exposed. And that's not good and he looks as though he loses awareness on the pitch but overall I prefer him.

My number one choice now is cancelo.

Balde goes forward too much, he was even in midfield. That's not good.

But I love his runs and he is good.

Balde is a bench player. Right now, Flick will not start him ahead of Cancelo and Espart.

Adeyemi is absolutely rapid. Arguably the fastest player in top 5 league.

Radcliffeee:
Such an amazing fan

fredoooooo:
Gbese

Briefcase dey road. Pk for united!

jpmoriarti:
Raphinha will advise and encourage him like he always does. Let's not forget he's still only 19 years and these things are expected from a teenager

Yeah, I'm aware of his age.

jpmoriarti:
He's already sulking and missing passes. He now lunged into a challenge and got himself booked.

It was predictable. He may be sent off for a second yellow if he doesn't score soon enough. He'll try meaningless dribbles and give the ball away time after time.

Flick should take him off to avoid red.

Time for Yamal to sulk the whole game. Luckily barca already have a comfortable lead lol.

Nairaland is 💯 gone. Right now nah just cruise we dey.

Another useless post hitting the front page.

Techu:
I don't think he's winning the UCL

I hope so too.

You be real barca fan.

Techu:
Balde's situation can only be redeemed when he steps on the pitch.
Like I said he's performance would be analyzed.Until then, this tells you what kinda coach flick is.

But he's your best coach since Enrique. Once him win ucl, some will rate him even higher than Enrique. His offense: benching Balde 😆

Techu:
I tell you bro.

He's benched again. Techu, which kind wahala Balde enter like this.

Go mountain go pray make them quickly sack Flick. Also pray make the new coach rate am ooo.

Classic 3rd choice situation. Only injury crises will bring him back but dont be surprised to see Jordi Pasquer preferred.

Techu:
But I will not be shocked if flick bench Rodri, nothing flick cannot do.

Based on Balde things abi.

jpmoriarti:
Gavi started the first game of the season and got himself injured after just 45 mins or so. And since he was gone, we have win all our matches while playing some of the best football we have played in years and scoring bucketload of goals.

I don't think that rumour is true though but he should know he has to work himself back to playing. Nothing is guaranteed for anyone in this Barca squad. And he has to do it fast because once Frenkie de Jong comes back, he will have to compete with him for Pedri's position.

Pedri didn't play well the previous match. So he must be ready to play better than him when he gets the chance.

Gavi needs to settle on a role. He's been played as a false left winger, CM, DM and even AM. Since Flick took over, Gavi has played better as DM paired with Pedri at CM.

I think Bernal despite his huge frame plays better as a CM not DM. So far, Gavi should be Rodri's deputy with Bernal as Pedri's deputy.

Dejong is better as a CM and with Pedri looking shaky, ur DJ could be back in the starting lineup. Well, with Rodri on the pitch, Dejong may not suffer much.

Time shall tell....

Leyqute:
Madrid should’ve sold him last month when they had the chance.

I think so too. Should've been sold. May be a new environment woulved motivated him more.

Leyqute:
Diomande was fantastic and dangerous in that left wing. Better output than Vini.

Even Leyqute will do better than Vini on the left wing lol.

On a serious note, Vini has peaked and is declining. With his bumper contract, I expect him to be even more relaxed and continue to drop stinkers.

fredoooooo:
Italian go say
Gol mangiato,Gol subito

andrewbaba44:
Omo this espi guy don save mourinho twice sha

With what Vini did today, Mou should find a place for Espi in the starting line up.

Vini was absolutely atrocious today.

BlueMann:
Madrid have won it lol. Unselfish from Mbappe

Moments earlier Elche had a promising counter but an attacker failed to control a fairly simple pass

This is the story associated with all small teams lol.

I always felt Madrid wouldn't drop points today. Too early to be so many points behind barca with the Madrid derby coming up.

Techu:
Gavi is considering leaving Barcelona due to lack of playing time.


Liverpool wants to sign Balde, possibly in January.

One of Dani Olmo or De jong, may likely leave Barcelona after this season.
Certain of De jong.

Casado that one will surely leave.

Let all the players leave, all the players should be leaving. Flick is doing well.

If Gavi wants to leave, that's a normal thing. 7 players for 3 positions is overbooking.

As I said earlier, at the start of next season or the one after, one of these players will leave due to overbooking of midfielders. Gavi, Dejong, Rodri, Olmo, Fermin, Pedri and Bernal.

With all that said, I don't think Gavi will ever leave Barca lol.
