He drags and tussles with CBs taking attention from the wingers and giving them room to operate plus his link up play and prowess in the air, this is why ferran can never be our starting striker and why we need to choose our next striker carefully
Abdul.. please I've been seeing links with one hoffeiheim striker called asllani, do you know stuff about him, is he really good

Techu:
I am a true Barca fan

And Yamal has declined, if you have eyes, watch and understand football then you can see that.

How many time does he need to get back to form. If he doesn't perform well, he should be benched.

AirBere:
Byeklabyke was crying because of Ter Stegen for years, almost 3/4 seasons straight or more sef. People kept saying he wasn't the problem but eventually most or all of them saw that Stergen nah pipe during the period of his complaint.

For Dejong, we'll be there eventually too. A DM who doesn't engage and win duels is a complete waste of space. I'm waiting for the next big game to point out the Ajax Ponzi scheme.

abduleez1:
Me wey don dey shout about De Jong for 4 yrs like dis nko. Barca go give am contract renewal till 2028. 🤷🏽‍♂️

But BykelaByke try sha..... The consistency. 😂😂

Techu:
Vinicius for scatter Yamal face.

Gavi is the antidote to Vinicius not Yamal.

If it was Gavi, I for say the fight get be draw.

Gavi get Naija blood.

Trevor012:
Too many mumu excuses for your dirty Yamal.

Bragged against Portugal,flogged.

Bragged against Psg, flogged.

Bragged against Madrid, flogged.

The world already sees him as a clown

At 18 your Ororo wasn't known,Yamal has all the time in the world to shame haters.💔

Can you tell us what you achieved as an 18yr old teenager? Probably living in your parent's house and off of them, which is not bad. Most of us did as well.

But you look at a prodigy like Lamine Yamal, who didn't even have a bad game yesterday. Assuming Kounde converted the exquisite through pass he threw to him, I am not sure you will be saying what you're saying now.

You shouldn't expect him at his age, to perform in each and every game at the stratospheric level. Not even Messi performed at such a level in each and every game he played.

Something I want you to remember whenever you want to criticise Lamine, is that he is still a teenager and that he's being prepped for two-decade long domination.

I'm out of the loop why are they mocking and trolling Pedri, like Iniesta, he usually doesn't talk and he's very respectful. Yamal spoke, didn't perform and is rightly mocked by rivals, neutrals and even his own fans. Wetin Pedri do abi e get wetin e talk after the game or something?

I'm sure you are 40 years, what have you achieved for you to criticize other adult players?

Someone is raising concerns about your player and you are talking about his personal life.

Two-decade long domination indeed.

Go and check all the players who started being key players at his age and when they ended.

If you people don't manage him well you won't even get six years from him.

J.p always moves like that,when argument gets tough,he resorts to emotional blackmail, personal attack.

I once criticized Jong,guess what J.P said?

Baba talk say "i dey pray for person failure in life".😂

Omo na once i comot hand.

Derumklala12:
E dey pain me as them dey mock Pedro and I fault it to yamal wether naim fault or not..

Tht overconfidence start to dey irritate me since last season
It just feels like he was pushing the gimmick and when him tok that thing on Saturday my head wan burst, the eediot sef stee get injury for pubic area, our coach no dey, our team be like promotion squad so why was he yabbing, even that him mumu papa I go send am swear soon if e no fit sharrap I go shut am up


As for pedri sha him go get mockery because for his calibre he should have done better and more show, because Bellingham was incredible.

You know there's a saying that a man's gift open doors for him.

Some discovered their talent quite early, some it was music, some football. Especially those in the Art and entertainment.

What I was at 18 has nothing to do with lamine yamal who is a footballer and is been paid millions.

[b]He has declined. [/b]I am only saying we give the kid a little competition.

Maybe playing in a big club like Barca is the problem. Maybe he should have started off in a small club then afterwards be bought by the big teams. As Neymar was.

Let's Bench him and put him behind bars.. A little competition on that right wing and Yamal will sit up.

In a team like this, nobody I repeat nobody should be assured a starting place

odizeey:
The guy no ready for proper discussion

jpmoriarti:
FC Barcelona managed a certain Lionel Messi and he went on to become the GOAT. I think the club knows a thing or two about managing young players to achieve their full potential, more than anyone here ever can.

jpmoriarti:
I discuss with people who are fair and balanced with their criticisms.

AirBere:
My "personal" opinion on Yamal is that he's too young for all these, as such, I think he should be KWAYET for a while and focus on the game but I know he won't. Top players gamble on their aura to motivate themselves before big games, some don't. Neur said he'll show Messi who's boss and got spanked in 2015.

You said you started supporting Barca some years ago so obviously you're not aware of the image below. Like Yamal, Ronaldo gambled on his aura and got spanked in 2010. This was the biggest fixture in world football with arguably the best players/managers on display at the time. But that didn't stop him from talking till this very day. The talking, his talent, hard work etc is is what has motivated Ronaldo to become a top 2 player of all time.

Everybody get wetin dey motivate am. But at this level, if you talk, you must show workings...nah must if not you'll get clowned. Yamal gambled his aura Vs France in Euros and won, did the same in nations League and won as well, did the same Vs Portugal, PSG and Madrid...lost all three.

For me, Yamal is extremely talented but I think he's a Di Maria/Neymar level talent. I don't think he's BEAST enough to singlehandedly carry a team like Barca the way Messi did. For that reason alone, I think he should tone down on talking and focus only on the pitch but my feeling is that he'll not change a bit. We'll see...

odizeey:
Was the whole burden put on his shoulder? When Messi was 18 he was not getting as much game time as Yamal. Even when he was 19. He started getting a lot of games when he was 20.

Do you know how many careers your club have managed to destroy after Messi?

Bojan, Dos Santos, Gbavi, Fati.

Wetyn concern me. Na una downfall I dey after sha

You're just throwing words around.

Yamal's situation is not a bad as you're making it seem. It is not uncommon for players to struggle a bit when they have been injured for sometime. It takes time to fully trust your body again and do the things you would effortlessly do before the injury.

If you watch Lamine, he doesn't take on players as regularly as he normally would since he returned from injury. He hasn't suddenly lost the ability to dribble, but he's taking his time to get back to the rhythm.

As a fan, you have to support him as he recovers his best form. Not to sit back and criticise him unfairly.

jpmoriarti:
If you really thing his talent is at the level of these lots you mentioned, why do you think his words against Real Madrid last week generated such a huge media attention? If a Neymar or Di Maria at 18 would have said similar things, do you think anyone would have cared?

AirBere:
Not really though...
Fati's injury was as a result of a very poor tackle from Mandi in a Laliga match not because of over playing. It's like saying Eduardo Da Silva declined because of over playing. A single tackle can alter your career. It's what happened to Fati.

Bojan left Barca fully fit to Roma. At the time of his departure, he was behind, Messi, Pedro, Villa. He was never gonna play meaningful games there. Has nothing to do with over playing. He himself said that he suffered confidence issues and anxiety which contributed to his poor form.

Dos Santos was never gonna be key for Barca. He was like them Jeffren, Abde, Tello, Cuenca and co. He could dribble and that's it. He left Barca fully fit with no issues and joined Tottenham.

Gavi is the only one who actually played alot on your list. but he himself suffered ACL. You over play, you don't over play, you can get ACL. The Liverpool kid who got ACL didn't play much in Italy. First game at Liverpool, boom ACL.

You're right though, Barca must manage Yamal well if not nah Ben Arfa way e go be...

AirBere:
Yamal is not REALLY better than Neymar and Di Maria yet in my opinion. He's almost there though, very very close.

Even if it was Dro who said what Yamal said, it'll still generate media attention. It's the Classico man. Every news outlet is always looking for something to hype up the occasion.
