It's been obvious that Yamal struggles everytime the opponent puts up a real rough defending on him. And he's not used to it. Bro expects the opponents to just let him walk into their box.
Vini needs 10 fouls for the ref to get the yellow out, for Yamal it's 3 on average. It's a huge difference. The situation Yamal got a pen for yesterday, Vini gets 5 per game of those.
I've also noticed Pedri literally stop playing the moment the opponent touches his shirt. It's so annoying.
We see week in week out opponents needing to climb over Jude's shoulders for him to potentially get a foul.
These small things eventually add up and will have an impact when repeated regularly.
That doesn't mean the players in question aren't good, but it's a conditioning circumstance.

Another failed 'here we go' from Fraudrizio. I used to respect him as a journalist, but his constant glazing of Yamal, only posting controversies about our games, and nothing when it's Barca, like VAR not working yesterday + the ref admitting it wasn’t a pen is just blatant bias to me. This is just a few examples.
Ornstein is far better, in my opinion.

Sorry for the double post - but one thing Isi Palazon did amazingly well yesterday when he played through the middle vs Barca:
He stayed offside A LOT when Rayo had the ball.
He would stay in the middle but wait offside behind the two centerbacks.
Pathe Ciss would pass the ball to the winger who was onside making a breaking run (De Frutos our former Academy player etc.) - and then Isi would be free in the middle to receive a square ball that was ONSIDE with the Barca defense already far behind him.
Something we can exploit.

I never use the word "Generational", but with the way he reads the game and those line-breaking passes makes me think that we actually have a generational CB in our hands.

I'm Turkish so I want us to win and Yamal to get schooled but I also want Huijsen to have a good performance which could mean Turkey not scoring lol. So maybe 0-0 until 90' and we win it with a free-kick/pen caused by Gavi? 🙏🥺

Man I feel like liverpool ain't winning shit this season. Looks like an overcooked mess at this point. Both ekitike and isak are the exact same profile of players. frimpong is a winger cosplaying as an RB and kerkez loves to bomb forward too. How are they going to fit szobo, macca, gravenberch, wirtz salah ekitike gakpo, all into that squad ?? Because none of them except for maybe gakpo seems like bench material. This feels like us getting mbappe situation all over again.
Also I would love to see all liverpoop fans who shit on trent for his defending, lose their heads watching frimpong defend.

i think flicks offside trap is gonna be beatable this season. the league looks like it’s figuring it out a little. hope some more people can take some points from them before they adjust

you know if Rüdiger and Alaba actually both leave
it'd be so fucking funny to snatch Guehi away from Liverpool, while also luring Konate in for free
hope we go for Saliba next summer tho

Bulgaria lost 3-0 to this Spain btw. Maybe actually trying to strike back isn't a good idea lol, we should have just terrorballed into a 2-0 defeat 🥀

Laporte back to Athletic Club - they will mount a serious challenge for third as long as CL football doesn't kill them

According to Bernabeu Digital, de la Fuente called some U21s to train with the NT on Monday and Gonzalo impressed at the training.
Edit: AS confirming it too. They’ve also included some footage.

Hopefully Gonzalo can impress de la Fuente enough in training to be chosen over Mo-Rat-ta.
