Luka Modric if he were Swedish

 

[Horatio]

He posted some snarky shit about Cucurella, who then completely owned him.

When? I am trying to look for it but can’t find it. Am I missing something?

On other hand I can find jibes from Chelsea players.

edit: lol…I now see Chelsea been talking about Lamine days leading up to game lol.

edit: Looool I found what media latched onto and got Chelsea jimmies rustled.

Lamine said about the game against Chelsea “it’s just a match” lololol

What does he need to shut up on then? Expressing excitement about upcoming games rofl?

You got caught up in media spin. Take the L and move on.

Instagram posts that he was born for this, that he's ready etc.

I understand why he's doing it but it makes him an easy target if he has a bad game. He failed to deliver and got pocketed by both Nuno and Cucu, he was born for that?

It's different when nobodies do it compared to superstars like Yamal. Like I said, he becomes an easy target after the game (during too). He's still 18, I'm sure he gets affected by it, which is also why he feels the need to post that publicly.

Need to post what publicly?

convictions about himself

What about all the players saying they are backed by god? Even the high profile ones?

 

[JamDav1982]

There is no issue with his social media unless he is getting distracted or pissing off the club.

After Real game people were demanding him to focus on the game and play for the badge more.

Well from what I have seen after that Real game he has been trying to be more impactful when pressing and making runs while also utilizing his teammates more. He has completely stopped doing that crowning celly after scoring and instead just grabs and kisses the badge after scoring.

And then he or his PR team posts a small highlight vid about him with texts like "REFOCUSED" and people here have problem with it? Isn't him being refocused and him acknowlodging that excactly what we have wanted?

He was recovering from an injury.

Yamal presses a lot more than some make out.

He can be selfish at times.. as every single Barca attacker can be.. particularly at times this season it feels a bit like they are competing with one another for numbers.

Raph, Lewa, Ferram, Fermin and Yamal all been greedy a fair bit when played and made poor decisions.. but also it results in goals at others.

 

[JamDav1982]

He was recovering from an injury.

And he pressed well enough v Real anyway and worked hard.

Some make out Yamal is far far more lazy on defensive side than he actually is.

Look at weekend.. folk make out Raph is some kind of defensive god while Yamal trots about without care in world.

Against Alaves...

Player 1 - 3 tackles/interceptions, 3 blocked passes and 8 recoveries (most in match)
Player 2 - 0 tackles/interceptions, 0 blocks & 2 recoveries.

Guess what one is Yamal and what one is Raphinha?

Now guess who of the two got unlimited praise for how much they brought to team defensively.

He’s getting disproportionate flak across the board.

There is agenda to prove him as being unprofessional, conveniently ignoring he keeps his calm on pitch(never caught cursing), doesn’t get sent off(0 red cards), avoids simulation, not greedy to claim penalties, genuinely happy for teammates when score, and has eyes for teammate to put them in goalscoring opportunity and presses.
