He is saying what he feels and what many know but are too afraid to say. This shit's been blown way out of proportion and taken out of context. If you knew Spanish you'd know the context of the whole conversation with Ibai and that it's all banter. They say that word all the time in SA, when refs favor the other team.

Nah. It's bad. Always easy to maintain this idea in your head that you're the best but others who win more steal. It's comfortable and validates a delusion. They won 2 CLs in last 4 seasons and did it fair and square.

There is no stealing imo. It's all exaggerated and victim mentality. Madrid have it too, but Barca is worse at this.

And you're very confident he will?

I don't know him personally to say that, niether any of us (most likely).

For now, he seens to be professional during the season, and enjoy his life too much in the summer.

Plenty of players were like that and remained super professional in their careers. Including aforementioned Pique

A lot more went the traditional route of ending up achieving way less than their talent gave hope for early on.

We know he is not very bright to put it mildly, not a hard worker either, better hope his talent is of the ultra-elite type, or else this reputation he is purposely building will get him in big trouble. The caliber of his talent is not certain either. I'd have preferred him to focus more on doing and less on talking.

What's worse for us, if he starts to be seen as a clown, it will make a sale for big money difficult also.

Not because of their big mouth, though.

It is about taking care of your career and your body. You can be a saint like Kaka and don't have a long career, or a asshole like Alves and plays till 40.

Lamine is an annoying asshole for sure, but this won't matter regarding his longevity and potential. If this spells on his training habits, that's another discussion.

Fair point, but his attitude stems from some deeper personality problems that usually can't be separated completely from his professional life. This stuff will probably spill over and cause issues.

So far this season his shittier performances were tied to his injuries. That won't last, and now he will be expected to make the difference. If he won't... boy... I hope he is ready for the heat. You have a big mouth, you better back it up.

I like confidence, I tolerate arrogance pretty well and never saw a big deal about it as a character flaw. Unless it's fake and unearned.

Regardless of wether he will reach glory here or not, from a club perspective, the ideal path is help him reach the peak, but monitor his professional attitude very closely. Sell whenever things start to get out of hand. He will be a Ronaldinho, or a Neymar, longevity wise at best, not a Messi.

Basta yaaaaaaa, Cabron ! y Bona nit 🥂
Here is how much I care about what the Mandrills think of Lamine. 💩 💩. Yes that is correct, two shits.

Barca has been nothing but modest and gentlemanly bar Pique in the last 20 years and did they think any better of us?

The club that had Helguera, Salgado, Marcelo, Xabi Alonso, Carvajal, Ramos, Pepe, Carvalho, Conceicao, Casemiro trying to break our players legs every Classico.

Hell I even remember when Mou sent Adebayor on with the sole intention of injuring someone. And that's before you get into the off the field sex scandals that they've had which are more than any other club.

That club is suddenly giving out morality lessons ?!?!?

And Barca cucks are actually taking notice of those morality lessons ?!?!?!?!

What the fuck am I reading ?!?!?!?!

Everyone blows everything he says or does out of proportion. He was in friendly banter with another King's league owner on a King's league podcast. He even said that he didn't say that he would win just that he had. We could lose 10-0 tomorrow and us winning 4-0 and them being handed games and whining will still be 100% true, but again it's not that serious...
