They would have whooped us either way. Pay attention to how we are playing.
Stop using YAMAL as an excuse as to why we lost.
FLICK Fan boys might be the worst thing that has happened to this club

Barca lost not because of injuries, lack of depth, form... But because Yamal motivated RM
GTFO of here.

When professional athletes get to the level of playing for Madrid or Barca, players talking before games has nothing to do with their motivation.
These are professionals of a very high level, some player verbalising before a game doesn't change anything, players at this level are already motivated.
People are trying to focus on the mental aspect and highlight that Yamal has a bad attitude, but in reality, we haven't seen any evidence to indicate he is actually unprofessional (bad physical shape, not training properly, not able to run etc).
I think its just that he hasn't learnt how to influence the game when he doesn't have the ball. He is a player who relies on having the ball to feet and who wants to take many touches, and he is brilliant at that, but when he doesn't, his off ball movement and one touch play is lacking.
This is something which can come with experience and coaching. He should become a goal threat also with his off ball movement and not just his dribbling, this is the reason why, for now, he doesn't score as many goals as he should. One of the things that the world class wingers had historically and have to score goals is their off ball movement. Salah, Son, Sterling, CR7, Mbappe etc.
When he learns this he will be one of the greatest of all time.

Lost me at the start "players talking has nothing to do with motivation". Numerous times even Messi admitted that some comments served him as extra motivation.

Barcelona told Lamine Yamal’s ‘ability to move and shoot reduced by 50%’ due to ‘complicated’ injury | Barca Blaugranes https://share.google/R7dWu5UpafsdQYoDD
He's cooked?

If his injury is long term/ complicated, it really was a low IQ move by him to play for Spain while on painkillers.
Nothing I’ve seen him since May 2025 strikes me as him being mature/ able to handle the fame.
Needs to buckle down and watch Messi videos on repeat on how to be media savvy despite having the achievements that he does.

Funny guy, if you believe the dumb words of Yamal didn’t have any effect on Madrid at all your just delusional just like the majority of the Barca fans on this forum.
You are all dick riding this 18 year old kid who was clearly in the wrong.

Just what we need. Players getting depressed after seeing prime Messi reels.
Lamine would probably watch those videos and arrive at the genius conclusion that walking during games was the secret of Messi's legacy.

Or vaxed and medicated by snake oils. It's really on the nose how fragile the younger generations are despite never having any hardship in life. My grandparent generation that went through war and post-war times, including bouts of famine and and lack of heating in their homes, were incredibly sturdy and rarely got sick and, when they did, they mostly used natural medicines known for generations instead of antibiotics and all the other crap that dismantles immune system. Pussified, dumbed down people, who consume goyslop everyday and get sick every second Tuesday.In before he's finished by 23 like Ansu Fati.

Tf is going on? Whole madrid fired up because of the 18 year old talking shit. Carvajal needs to shut the fuck up. Bellingham talked shit to pedri like not even with negreira red card, mbappe laughed. Meanwhile, Rudiger showing beheading sign last year, ceballos did what he did at camp nou, asencio child pornography dealer, and yet still the biggest earthquake happened when they were acused of what they are really doing, of stealing. How in the fuck those 3 players above mentioned even play after those things they did is unfucking believable.
Let the kid cook them, fuck them.

Or peak at 17. Like aforementioned Fati, Balde, Gavi and Cubarsi.
I am obviously exaggerating and still way too early for most those guys but who knows.

Fame, money and pressure... If you get milions/year as 18 year old or so - basicly kid... That's what gets you. The same thing was with a lot brazilian players. Money and fame gets you. People should stay humble, play the game and thats it. But with that much money etc, so young, thats how you can be fucked up.
And there is the way of life nowdays. Tik tok, insta etc. There is no normal life anymore, so everything combined is reality that leads players to be coocked and finished.

Only Fati is maybe past his peak there and even he looks very good at Monaco now
Lamine is definitely not past his peak. People said same shit about Mbappe when he was a teen that his ego is too big that he won't make it to the absolute top and in a sense they were right but now he is 26 best footballer on the planet, scores every single game, will probably win a ballon d'or or two till his career ends, a few CL to top it off
