19 - Lamine Yamal

[FinBarcelonafan]

They have to be careful with him and not overburden him at his age. Last thing you want is him to get injuries due to fatigue and being overplayed.

Pedri, Gavi.. wouldn't be the first one.

 

[JamDav1982]

He wont get over played but he can start occasionally and come of bench fairly often and may well be needed to.

 

[vuji_31]

Best player in the world in his age.

Him and Fermin could ve new gems.

 

[Sailor Mars]

Ignore all the other youngsters that came before him. This guy is the real saviour.

 

[Latschenkiefer]

He was born in Esplugues de Llobregat? That's more or less in Barcelona. So cool.

 

[mc_lovin]

Said it before, but he’s the future face of the club. No doubts about it. Only question is how long it will take.

I have zero worries about the club mid- to longterm.

 

[JamDav1982]

As long as he doesnt want a step up to Arsenal etc in future be fine.

 

[Latschenkiefer]

I can already see him getting crushed by the hype train.

 

[JamDav1982]

I can already see him getting crushed by the hype train.

Or his family... his father is a loose cannon.

Happened before to young players when have that bad enviroment around them.

Need Barca players to take him under wing big time.

 

[Givenchy]

Our biggest talent alongside Balde.

Hope he gets a lot of opportunities with the first team this season, if you're good enough you're old enough.. that and I can't stand watching Raphinha any longer

 

[Porque]

Well this is the biggest challenge of what Xavi has as a manager in terms of bringing youth players through.

This is the first major talent to emerge at his hands with no prior first team experience.

With Dembele out of the way, there isn't really an excuse not to be give him minutes every game and starts every other.

He was there for Messi breakthrough and experienced it's management first hand.

Let's see how he handles this one. For starters, he shouldn't really be asking for a RW.

 

[Devils]

Stunning player.

 

[OVI9323]

he's very smart! Honestly between him, Fermin, Abde, Ansu, he's the one I trust the more to be successful on the long term

X factor + smart

 

[FCBarca]

What I have liked the most about this superlative left footed talent is the sporting ambition - he wants to win and he elevates his play to be a protagonist in the outcome. It's deliberate but looks instinctive, he has the profile of an attacking great

So of course, the question will be how to bring him along slowly - esp. now that Dembele is out. There will be pressure to play him and few will appreciate the challenges of young La Masia integration better than Xavi

This is a 100% true, though obviously, let’s hope they all fulfill their massive potentials… Already excited for the new season 😊
