The bigger the games got, the higher be raised his play level.

Raphinha by comparison shrank more and more. As much as I respect his hustle and output, he can’t drag teams in business end of season.

Oceans different in talent.

The kid has balls of steel. Talks it and walks it.

Hope he somehow manages to win the Ballon d'or, still has time to be the youngest ever winner though.

In dribbling by far the best, 1vs1 is nearly impossible to win - shadow of prime Lionel,Maradona,Manu CR7, R9

His long shots are top level too, they are dangerous or he scores

Needs to improve 1vs1 finishing

Manu Cr was no where close to current Yamal's level of dribbling. Look at Yamal's body manipulation and change of pace. Absolute different level.

Neymar is more similiar.

I'm thinking donkey, ferret and hoeno might have shrank in confidence seeing Yamal turn Messi-esque. They're so far from his level they subconsciously didn't want to fuck up his brilliant plays and ghosted, and ironically they're right Yamal has a better chance going solo all the way.

This is a real problem that needs addressed. We need players up front that have enough skill and confidence to complement Yamal. I was calling for Fati to be subbed in and for sure he wouldn't have been afraid to tiki taka with Yamal, such a shame what could've been.

He's nowhere near Messi, Maradona and R9 as a dribbler.

Messi and Maradona used to dribble crowds and carry the ball for 40 odd yards consistently beating multiple players in a row. They were so natural that they didn't even have to stop and think of a trick to beat one man. They just instinctively flew past defenders like it was reflex action to them.

R9 was unstoppable one on one in his peak and had the insane combination of pace and power along with skill moves and close control.

Not the only time he did this btw, remember against Betis away too, Italy in Euros

Yamal can dribble crowds and will only get better at it with time

There's no way Yamal can do something similar to this.

Messi had explosive acceleration and strength on the ball along with his impeccable close control.

Only Maradona and Messi could do this shit.
