Trivelas aren't a flair choice lmao. He can't cross with his right foot and the trivela allows him to get a different angle/spin like a right-footed cross would.
Yeah, but when the majority of them are swatted with utter ease then it’s time to stop and do something different.

Not saying he shouldn’t cross this way, just don’t overdo it. Pick and choose the right time to execute them. They work when there’s more space, tonight and against Getafe there was barely any.

He has flair but he should stop diving and make sure he doesn't miss sitters.
Football is fun, you don't need to cheat if you are good.

Way too greedy at times and forcing. Don’t know if he’s not aware or misinterpreted instructions or simply ego. He’s young so…but hope team works on it.

Well, he has a bum father and he's raised in the social media era. Hopefully he won't go the Neymar way.

Puts things into perspective on how lucky Messi was. Good childhood, raised in a normal family and he wasn't influenced by social media as that wasn't a big thing when he grew up.

I've not given my comment about his performance. We all know how talented he is, but maybe today he lacks humility with all the success and praises he gets. He's good when he stays humble, but if he wants to do like Neymar he will ruin his carreer. When he's at his best he's the best player of the world but with injuries and his lack of humility, he doesn't give his full potential unless Pedri who is really the best player of our team.

There are such kneejerk reactions. Absolutely no indication he wants to be a Neymar, as if that is even a bad thing. wtf is this narrative. Neymar has always been the most hardworking one out of MSN, same at PSG between him, Messi and Mbappe. His defensive workrate has always been impressive for a player of his talent.

Yamal just had a bad night where he couldn’t really go past the LB. His first touch was also off, maybe due to the weather. When he would lose the ball, he’d try to make an effort to win it back.

Yeah I agree. It was terrible night for him but also the conditions were terrible. Raining alot. Tough environment's always hurt the most players who dribble the most and do fancy things. The ball just doesn't work the same. Maybe a bit less tricks in terrible conditions.
