The closer you get to someone, especially someone who is above you in age, position, or authority, the more conscious you should become of the boundaries that come with that access. Familiarity should never make you lose respect.
One thing I have noticed about people is that the moment you give them access, some of them immediately begin to mistake access for equality. They become too comfortable, start talking to you anyhow, and gradually lose the respect they had for you before you became close.
Personally, the closer I become to someone, the more careful I become around them. My respect for you does not reduce because you have made yourself more accessible to me. If anything, it increases because I now understand that the access you have given me is a privilege, not a licence to become disrespectful.
I have been around my top boss, someone who brought me considerably closer to him. We discuss football, women, and almost everything else. He treats me like an age mate, like one of his guys, and it would be very easy to let that familiarity get into my head. But I never allow it to.
I still know exactly who he is and the position he occupies. I still accord him every respect he deserves, and if anything, I am even more careful around him because I understand the privilege of the access I have been given.
Access should make you more responsible, not more careless. Familiarity should deepen your respect, not destroy it.
🗣️ Journalist: "People inside Real Madrid say you are much more relaxed and calm."
🚨 Jose Mourinho: "So you have a source inside the club? Good to know."
Something is clearly off with Lamine Yamal right now. He doesn’t look like the same player we knew before last season.
I’m not criticizing him or questioning his quality. I’m just pointing out something that has been noticeable for a while. His body language and facial expressions whenever a teammate doesn’t pass to him, shoots instead of playing him in, or fails to find him are becoming hard to ignore. He looks visibly frustrated, almost disgusted at times.
And honestly, that can affect his teammates too. When they see him reacting like that, it can create hesitation in the final third — do I take the shot? Do I pass to someone else? Do I play Lamine and wait for him to create some magic? Those little doubts can make players lose focus and overthink their decisions.
There was even a moment when he stopped pressing for a second before immediately going back to it. Flick then substituted him in the 2nd half.
Maybe it has something to do with his best friend Balde being told by Flick that he will not count on him, or maybe there’s another reason we don’t know about. I’m not pretending to know what’s going on behind the scenes.
And I know this is only the first game. I’m sure Lamine will get back to the level we saw before and show everyone what he’s capable of. But this is something I’ve wanted to say for a long time, because it’s noticeable and worth pointing out.
Lamine just needs to put his feet back on the ground, stay humble and remember one thing: Barcelona comes first.
No player comes before the club. Not Lamine, not anyone else — not even Messi.
A mistake that cost me 5 years: Thinking preparation was progress. Reading every book. Taking every course. Planning every detail. Meanwhile, someone dumber than me started badly and figured it out. Preparation feels productive but it's often just fear dressed up as strategy. You learn to swim by getting in the water, not by studying water.
If you have the chance to talk to anyone still in school, always remind them to bag good grades.
There are people out there who are willing to support them achieve their dreams of furthering their education if they can’t afford it.
Thank you @benkoku and the rest of the @Citi973 breakfast show crew for the conversation about consumers in Ghana being penalized/charged for digital transactions and rather rewarding the use of cash. In big 2026 this is so regressive. I hear “add charges” more than good morning and good evening these days. Ghana We Dey.
Yes, those photos you’ve seen are real.
More than 18 years ago, a baby named Lamine Yamal and his mom Sheila met Lionel Messi at a UNICEF fundraising photoshoot.
Today, their achievements on the pitch inspire millions. Off the pitch, both Messi and Lamine Yamal use their voices and platforms as UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors to support and advocate for children around the world.
The goal? That every child survives, thrives, and fulfils their potential.
We are proud to have them on our team.

Reporter: "After the match agains Egypt, you told us: "God had a plan for me." Do you think he has another plan for you?
Messi: "I don't know, honestly, after everything we've been through, we can't ask for more than that."
"Just playing another final is an amazing thing. God is great, and he always has something else, but honestly, I can no longer ask God for more."
"I am grateful for everything God has given me, whether in my sports career or in my personal life. And as I always say, as for the rest... It will be God's will. God knows."
Guys have you noticed how wicked Argentina is ?
They don’t like winning easily, Cape Verde, Egypt, Switzerland & England. They give you sweet hope so your pain hits harder at the end
You can win your World Cup, I’m tired
