I swear . You know see as dem Dey double mark am yesterday ? He’s our greatest threat and many clubs will start double marking him steadily . All our players Dey try right now apart from Araujo , I felt relieved when he was subbed off bcoz he no Dey coordinated at all .

andrewbaba44:
I like the experiment wey that boy Dey do ,see that stylish pass to kounde nah

Let’s not forget on 31 games he has scored 11 goals and 14 assists which makes it 25 G/A

He is a fearless kid who can take on anyone ,he should continue those experiment abeg

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
I'll pick Pedri. Olmo is not far. Those cool and calm control dey give me goosebumps

hustleranthem:
Leave Althese Ungrateful Barca fans . Dem go just Dey talk SHIT ! How many 17 year old fit Dey give the kind performance that small boy Dey give us every week ? The few weeks wey he injure , our attack crumble instantly . The only thing these entitled set of fans sabi do na to COMPLAIN and NAG ! You can’t just satisfy them and it’s really annoying when I hear them talking shit once a player has some bad games .

Yamal hardly have bad games sef so what’s the complain for ?

hustleranthem:
Althese kind talks na make dem say Barca no Dey appreciate their legends . Before Messi leave Barca , some foolish fans for this same thread Dey talk that time say make dem bench Messi , make dem sell am just bcoz he had average games for some time . Even those Messi average games then na some people 8/10 on a norms . Make una Dey calm down with some criticism bcoz no player is a robot . But Yamal has been very consistent since the Euros up till this moment .

andrewbaba44:
IMO No bad game yet this season for him

Leave 17 year old ,how many 20 year old Dey give this kind performance weekly ?

Taguchi:
Lamine is still a child, and he’ll only get better as he continues to experiment with his game.

I’d much rather see him keep making these audacious attempts, failing and figuring out what works for him than play it safe and turn into another pass-back merchant like Grealish or start spamming crosses like Ziyech.

I remember feeling the same frustration with Balde last season with his deep runs, dribbles, and passes but he's significantly improved .

Sometimes, we forget that Lamine is only 17 and already one of the best players in the world. Normally, he won’t be 10/10 in every match.

If he keeps doing what he's doing and avoids major injuries , we could be looking at a future Ballon d’Or winner in the next three years.

Make Una cut my boy some slack...

Watched Messi to long to know that i would never compare Yamal or any other player to Messi, they would never be till maybe 100years ,let Yamal create his own history...but Barca fans want a Messi in Yamal its only normal.

But a messi in an 18-yard box be it prime or now don't joke with goals or experiment on goals, he has already decided just needs implement it...this what i want from Yamal.

My major prayer for Yamal is for him to find his scoring mojo cuz of days Raph/Lewa/Ferran no score other aspect of him his great.

When Guler and Endrick don secure permanent 💺 for Real Madrid bench, we go dey protect our boy

Taguchi:
I don't think they are being ungrateful, it just that the boy has raised the bar with his performances and fans wants to see that level week in week out.

I know he's not Messi (no one is) , but that boy is the closest thing we have to a Lionel Messi in our team at the moment and must be protected...so if he looses the ball while dribbling let others pursue and get it back, what are they there for

And he's not even had a terrible game so far just 2 average games and he even scored in one of those and almost scored yesterday as well..

I know he's a poor man's Messi, but that's the only type of Messi there is at the moment ..even the real Messi no near lamine level at 17 .

With proper coaching and with luck on his side he can become a generational player.. he's already world class.

Ijustwantto:
you shouldn't call the fans calling for messi to be benched "foolish". If they want him benched, there is nothing wrong with that. It's their opinion.
To be a messi fan is one thing, to be a barca fan is another thing.
You're making it look as if leo should always be in the first eleven except injured. Na for there ego dey start.

Taguchi:
Nah, yamal is already better than 17 year old Messi... maybe not as talented and almost certainly a much lower ceiling than the G.O.A.T but in terms of impact and overall influence on the game at 17, yamal is Clear

Did you watch a teenage Messi ? Always trying to nutmeg and dribble everyone at any opportunity and looking to chip the goalkeeper every time... Leo didn't start out being efficient in front of goal he improved with time as well as in other areas such as passing, free kicks etc.

Lamine is just being a 17 year old...he needs highlights to brag with to his friends na why him head dey swell anytime the crowd applauds him.

Make Una allow the boy drimmmble jare , some of us na dinho's drimmmbling make us start to support Barca.

Like you, I only hope he works on his shooting to increase his goal threat.. alot of times , he creates spaces with his skills only to release weakass shots.

Una go Dey complain like say una sabi play ball for real life .. Rabbish

Taguchi:
Make him continue dey do am jare, no guts no glory! this is how world-beaters are made so long as he doesn't do it close to our goal

It is rather unfair that a 17 year is almost single handedly shouldering the creative responsibilities of our frontline..

Raphinha can't dribble properly to save his life same for lewandowski and ferran, the opposition knows this that's why they are starting to double team lamine yamal and making it harder for him to breakthrough.. apart from lamine, balde is the only one that brings the much needed dynamism to our attack from the flank and he's a fvcking defender

That's why I'm off the opinion that our next nine must be a good dribbler that can create space for himself and others

Dribbling is not outdated, we need more dribbers in our attack the same way Madrid has Vinicius, Rodrigo and Kylian

jpmoriarti:
People pay hard earned money to watch them play. Without the fans, there's no footballer. You have to listen to the complaints.

Colson:
Absolutely brilliant!!!
I love that he plays for the team and always gives his all, not selfish or attempting unnecessary dribbles for some cheap YouTube highlights.
Barcelona's best player right now and my favourite in the team.

Debroslink:
I have longed sheath my sword on Pedri and put the blame on Xavi's poor coaching style. Over 90% of our players are playing at optimal level and all praise goes to Flick Hansi.

jpmoriarti:
Lolz the whole world is in awe of Pedri. Many even describe him now as currently the best central midfielder in the world ahead of the likes of Joshua Kimmich and Martin Odegaard.

Yes he did struggle last season and the season before that but you will always know he needed more consistency with his fitness and if he could achieve some consistency in that front, we could have a very generational midfielder in our hands.

I am very glad everyone sees that now.

andrewbaba44:
You can praise pedri without trying to diss someone else ,and I know it’s yamal ,na you know your agenda ,that kid is never selfish and throughout the season he never had any bad game ,there is a reason he is our top creator .

Pedri
Yamal
Raphinha
Cubarsi

IMO None of this players above have done anything that’s worth criticizing this season

Shout out to Martinez balde kounde and lewandowski also

Colson:
Every objective Culer knows that Yamal has been trying to force things since the turn of the year. I don't care if you say he's 17 or learning, we want to win trophies and i don't want a situation whereby his newly attained habit of ball hogging costs us as we approach the crucial point of the season. He should play like the Yamal of last year who was renowned for his wonderful decision making at his age.
I hope flick tells him to tone it down a notch.

andrewbaba44:
I know lewandowski will still be here for one more season

But please which striker will you all sign for Barca if you have the power ?

And I think we need a back up LB/RB

Aside Nico Williams ,which LW will you guys like ?

Taguchi:
I'll personally prefer Victor from sporting or Isak ..I love strikers/forwards that are very technically and can create when necessary that's why MSN was very deadly as no one player carried the entire burden to make things happen upfront.

I know JP will argue that we need finishers in the team, but dribbling and close control are skillsets and not a role and it doesn't impact negatively on your abilities to convert chances .

Colson:
It's not even a matter of the Sevilla game, he's been ball hogging and making silly decisions on the ball for the past few games, objective culers just got fed up of it all now cuz it's happening consistently. I love Yamal, I'll be the first to praise him to the high heavens for his talents and I'll also be the first to criticise him when annoying shit like this start creeping into his game as it's happening now

i hope flick has a word with him concerning this.
