The timing of the announcement is a bit dubious. De la Fuente went on a rant about how he expected more empathy from Flick given that he was also an ex-NT manager and that its normal for football to be played with some discomfort. :ROFLMAO:

And then BAM ! Lamine is out for two weeks ! :putin:

Quite normal. De La Fuente should not get any Barcelona players except if they are in prime fitness condition.

Imo these injury issues with these young players is because they are being thrown in too young and forced to play too many games. A 17 or 18 year olds body is not ready for 50 to 60 games a season. If memory serves me right Lamine had played a 100 games for Barca before he was 18. That's insane. Gavi and Fati have also been hit by persistent injuries at a very early age.
I've been ranting about this for some time now. Club was desperate so we just threw them into the mix without thinking long term.
I'm also worried about his mindset and behaviour. Seems to enjoy the party scene too much.
Club needs to get a grip and start taking control of the situation.
Flick is a pretty strict taskmaster but if a Valverde type comes in things could get messy.
Also if we see signs that he is slipping we need to sell ASAP. No time for sentimental bs here. We missed out on 80 million on Fati. 200 million sale could help with rebuilding the squad if the money is spent wisely.

Why would she need to grift for such a measly sum? Maximum she can get is 800 € x 400 people = 320k, and even that is not net profit once you subtract all the costs. Realistically she is keeping 50k max. Her son makes what, 15 million a year minimum?

Tickets for the dinner range from £130 to £289 ($174 to $388.70), with champagne on arrival, a three course dinner, non-stop entertainment and DJ, networking with other sports personalities and photo opportunities listed among the benefits.

The announcement of the event had led to criticism of Ebana in Spain, but former Real Betis player Benjamín Zarandona, who will also be at the dinner, has explained she merely accepted an offer to attend.

"JEN C Events contacted me regarding the charity dinner they organise every year," Zarandona told Cadena Ser.

"They had seen me in a photo with Lamine's mum. As you know, I've had a friendship with her for many years due to our shared roots in Equatorial Guinea.

"The agency asked me if it would be possible to get her to London for a Christmas event. I said I'd look into it. That's it. We reached an agreement. They hired me as an ex-player and I contacted Sheila.

"We've simply been hired to attend a dinner they are organising. From there, they set the prices. Obviously they will want to cover the costs of the dinner.

"Lamine's mum is not organising anything. She's attending as a guest. That is it. Some of the things that have been published have really surprised me."

Damn. I thought it was going to be like one of those celebrity dinners where they do a bad standup show about their careers and then do a QandA.

-Find out when Lamine stopped being breastfed.
-The time when Lamine dribbled the dog and it bit his foot
-What does Lamine mum really think about Nicky Nicole?

All this and more, at the Lamine Mum Dinner and Dance. Book your tickets today!

Interesting. Flick criticized Lamine's off the ball work and thinks it is down to the injury he had recently, and didn't recover from. Let's hope he is right.

Good reaction from Flick. De La Fuente guy had some very nasty remarks. If this is the relation he wants with the club that gives his best players, so be it.

Sounds like the Spanish press have totally twisted that event to seem like something it is not. That Mrs Yamal is charging people for her time rather than actually being one in a number of guests of an event.

I find that somewhat disgusting and just symptomatic of how the Madrid led press treat Lamine and his family. And then they have the audacity to want him to break his back playing for the country.

That's why, if there is any fault that comes to light , I will always be prepared to give Lamine the benefit of the doubt. Otherwise we are doing the Madrid scums work for them.

Honestly, if it was me, I would be taking legal action.

So Flick is not sure if he will be ready for El Clasico?

This is absolute madness atp. They don't know if he will be ready to play in a month but rushed to start him in probably the most intense possible game in world football at the moment

The trajectory his career is taking is only getting more obvious. He will be physically exhausted and torn apart because both in Barça and Spain NT they only care about their short term success. To get their recognition, and after that who gives a fuck what happens. Why would LDF care if Lamine retires at 21 when he won the WC for him at 18

Complete identity alienation. Lol. Both she and the father are no longer africans.. they acquired everything in Europe, the good and the bad : the empiricism, the scientific method (of football)as well as capitalism.
, exploitation and the deification of resources. Hehe

Early Messi had his fair share of injury wobbles.

Forumers of the time said the exact same thing. That he was injury prone, that he will lose his speed. That he won't be able to develop and get a run of games.

Young players playing too much at a much higher intensity these days.

Messi had injuries but he was a lot more dedicated to his craft than this lad seems to be. I still see minimal improvement on his shooting or other facets of his game - still reliant on that Arjen Robben cut shot (to be fair, that is a brilliant shot but it's too predictable now).

I really value his talent but he and his entourage are not very likable unless they are producing big results for Barcelona.
