Or he just started learning spanish and learnt that one sentence to say to the media, as this was a planned event.

Or his language learning abilities are extraordinarily .. he learned how to correctly recite certain words from the Barca anthem after one quick few minutes coaching .. he had to learn the pronunciation once only for each word and then managed to say the entire anthem more or less correctly. Check his Barca taxi video.

It is clear that the kid is both smart and holds huge respect to towards the club

Finally a player saying it as it is. Tired of these veteran nice boys who never once tell the truth post-match.

Complaining about pressing :lol: instant favourite player after Messi now.

In Ajax it was real Cruyff style, moving the ball fast and pressing, must be confusing to him how going to a dream club is a downgrade.

Put him in the kitchen. And he'll cook you a 5 star meal.
This kid is special.

At Ajax they had a 5 sec rule. When you lose the ball, regain it within 5 seconds (no matter what).

Doesn't always work. But the intention is always there...
Compact, high, aggressive pressing. It's a kamikaze tactic. But that's how they learn it at Ajax.

So i know what Frenkie is talking about.

Raki will never rewin a ball within 5 sec. Which will make it harder for Frenkie.
