He's not the next Leo messi...He's the new Lamine Yamal

[@NYXERO_111]

But don't tell me that a left footed right winger body fainting defenders doesn't remind you of Leo... when I saw lamine play for the first time... I saw that certain someone in him

[@Visca__Barca_Visca_cules]

There’s always that comment on yamal like yours it’s annoying 😂 he’s the next Messi buddy rather you like it or not and he’s doing great with a weaker team than Messi had

[@Jout8-re1ij]

@@NYXERO_111 He didnt say his not similar to Messi. He just said he will be the next Lamine Yamal, instead of Lionel Messi.

[@Jout8-re1ij]

@@Visca__Barca_Visca_cules How its annoying arrogant kid? You dont need to put great young football talents under a lot of pressure by calling them next Messi. You saw how badly that ended with Bojan, when he propably could have played much better football, if he wasent under so much pressure.

[@nirvana10111]

Not too sure it's the club looking for the next Messi. My impression has always been the media and the fans jumping the gun before everyone.

[@peterbachtiar4185]

Correct!

[@imransuhail82]

Of course the club is looking for the next world beater.and developing one from the academy saves hundreds of millions of dollars which is important because Barcelona is not a kingdom supported club like Real Madrid who can spend infinite money

[@vishnujain7645]

​​@@imransuhail82Barça a couple of years before could bring any one . Coutinho , Dembele ,or the likes that was crazy. They forced them out of their previous clubs. But financial mismanagement and reluctance to change senior players screwed Barça over. Lamasia is like their bail out of this financial mess. Barca is one lucky club , playing their lamasia babies is helping them right now . If they haven't crumbled financially , none of their Teenage sensation would have seen the first team. Real managed their team well , willing to let go of superstars and don't say Barca couldn't complete with them financially three or four years back.

No one expects Yamal to score a lot of goals. For now, I'm just happy with his dribbling and general gameplay

[@ciferplayzzz7121]

Pls let's not hype him too much like ansu,1 injury is all it take to break the confidence

[@guillaumemg61]

Hype or not, if it's his destiny to be one of the greatest, then he will be.

[@thegriffin5556]

Always remember nobody can replace Lionel Messi ❤ EDIT: thanks for 10 likes🤍

[@rogermilla2358]

Yamal needs 3 things: 1) Keep his head on straight, keep working hard, and coaches not putting too much pressure on him too early 2) Develop a better weak foot/become two footed 3) Luck with avoiding injury issues If he gets those 3, he's gonna be the first true successor of Messi, and FCB's #10 and franchise player for the next 2 decades.

[@EGT445]

If the Spain national team manager plays him in the euros but not in olympics, Yamal won’t be like Pedri. But if he plays him in both competitions, well sadly he could turn out like Pedri…

Ansu mane Fati story hurt me till this day , the guy had great potential and that time he was better than vini Jr until the injury started to kick in , but people always makes fun of him . The boy was talented is just the injuries had slow him down , Ansu fati had 4 surgeries in 6months and people will come here and make fun of him . They should find him a Therapist , everytime he touches the ball it feels like he’s scared

[@JohnBlessed5]

It is wrong to say a player will be the next Lionel Messi. Playing at a top club like Barça is pressure enough. Let the young talents develop in time.

[@user-xt9sh5kz2x]

Messi is once in a lifetime. I don’t think anyone in our lifetime will come close to what he’s done. The last thing Lamine needs is all that pressure on his shoulders

[@theflashgordon193]

Man i love bojan i wish i would still playing. Imagine barca with both bojan and messi playing more years

[@GoodVIBES-zw5dt]

Going through your channel for few days , I noticed even u have potential like Lamine Yamal

[@geeksreview6340]

The thing is Leo Messi is "once in a lifetime" player and to be like him will affect players in so many different ways. It's better to be yourself than to be like Lionel Messi.

[@mannyathabang1315]

Let's not compare anyone with Messi please, for the sake of everyone involved.

[@vodkastani4649]

another great video! Thanks! We all hope that Lamine will be successful and stay physically and mentally fit!

[@akunwanneprosper7016]

Taking over Messi, wild fantasy Deulofeu was a good squad player We only expected too much from him Just like Fermin presently

[@BarcaBasto]

karamoko dembele is out there with his comeback seemingly and oh boy it looks good. revived. showing this shows character. once the twin to mbappe in world football quite clearly. we as barca should meet him in the middle and the time is there to unite… lucky he’ll be part of the greatest barca-b squad ever along guiu. estevao. dani-r. bernal. diarra. _the best two? in form are being called up extra to play the game with first team ahead of them_

you were not kidding when you talked about the thumbnail on stream it looks amazing also great video as always💙❤

[@bryantortega88]

Don’t overuse him and he will have a bright future😊

[@imransuhail82]

Love that you started from Bojan. So many people have forgotten about him Stoke city fans LOVE bojan for the small time he was with them. ITs great that Bojan has been given this role to oversee young players They told him to start with Ansu at brigthon which is another good sign that maybe Ansu will someday be back. With Lamine, Barca need to really strongly talk to Spanish federation and national team coach as not to hurt him. I wish Lamine had picked Morocco honestly so he would play in less international tournaments and maybe be protected a lot more.

[@user-ou2mx6hu8z]

Xavi fail to give Fati the chance to gain his confidence

[@karthikbhan3675]

Great thumbnail btw, getting real athletic interest vibes from it

[@MrMoeGaming]

Lamine gotta be protected. I don't even care if he's a game changer. We can't afford to sacrifice his career because he is expected to play day in and day out at just 16...

[@BarcaBasto]

ansufati CrazyCAM has one of the greatest talent in his feet. injured form now. should stay under contract but go to similar ajax on loan to be predominantly freely free. agreement : or ajax with buy back option

[@naluminolinyandi6755]

He is more of a Rhiyad Mahrez type player. The young lad is talented, we need to protect him and Cubarsi

[@ryukobestwaifu3319]

Barcelona need to keep finding players from la masia we cant stop with just lamine in these seasons since messi left and seasons around that we've had so many talents pop up not just from midfield like the usual but even in defense and attack we have to keep it up so we can have a good bench and reserves

[@xaviersmall4461]

Yamal is facing an issue even Messi didn't have when he started out. He's arguably Barca's best player this season (at least in his position). Sure we may not want him to be over used and have a to of pressure on him but its going to happen because the club needs him and when he does play he's sensational.

[@neeleshkumarvishwakarma]

Lamine Yamal is Lamine Yamal, hope my fellow culers will understand this. Let us not burden him with pressure.

[@BarcaBasto]

they kept quiet about his talent but couldn’t hold it anymore that’s where they expressed him being the crown jewel. best lamasia etc

[@bkarnhem874]

I fear that all of Barca's prospects will be ruined by injuries, because they get played too much at a young age. Also, why did they get rid of Nico Gonzalez? He seems like a great defensive midfielder in the making

[@jacobcirrus]

Nobody is going to be the next Messi. You will find great players, especially if you don't run them into them into ground. But nobody will be another Messi. The environments, the willpower, the no expectations. Leo had 0 expectations and he thrived. Since then everyone coming through has had expectations on them and died because of it.

[@Clips_FN]

No one can ever be Messi they can only try to replicate but never be him in reality

[@guylandry9257]

I'm really hopeful for him and all the other barça youngsters. I hope they delete their socials and grow up sanely without all the media pressure. Imagine being 16 and people already challenge you to get 8 ballons d'or at least.

[@javonniefrazer2093]

The thing that made Messi great was talent, the thing that kept Messi that great is focus and dedication… that’s the only thing that most talented footballers don’t have

[@ReinierRuneScape]

Real madrid is a money club Barca is a home grown talent club C Ronaldo has been replaced at real faster than leo messi at barca. But eventually some kid will come around and be the main man again for barca OR it will be more like a collective, like I feel is what real madrid is now As a club I would put my money on having a collective high quality team instead of 1 high quality player I wonder which one of the two paths barca will end up at. At the moment its more of a collective, not just ultra star player.

[@TheOutlierToday]

Barcelona is always looking for great players. Not necessarily the best Messi. Great players they can fit together and play together for a while. Our issue is the media and now the team is so bad that we have to rely on our youths too much. It's good because I don't think yamal would get a chance in 2015 or 2011. But now he's being used every game

All this Messi comparison to young La Masia players needs to stop. Lamine is only 16 and in one of his interviews he says: "Pressure is what you create for himself." and I cannot agree more. He just needs to play his own game, and not think about filling in Messi's shoes. He doesn't need to be the next Messi he can be himself.
