@UTDTrey The finishing from Odegard was elite. But, that juke from Tzolis before the pass ✨. He's really one to watch for Arsenal this season. Immediate impact from the bench!
@Feyenoord Why did Feyenoord play like they were scared of the ball in the first half. Their press was weak, they gave away the ball to frequently, their final third decision making was questionable. Barcelona Up 2-0 wasn't that much of a surprise
@Sholynationsp Before people start making a 'Modric case' for Messi. Remember Modric was the most decorated player in europe, and unlike Messi, he had a dominant final against France though they lost. As much as you want to, it's really not the same. Add in the UCL for Real Madrid.
@Khollinx001 But, then again. If you draw side by side their performances at the WC, Yamal really doesn't/didn't come close to Mbappe. So why does the YOUNG label fit more now. You could make an argument about the timelines, but that's about it
@Khollinx001 I have this theory about the media double standards, stay with me now. Mbappe came off the 2018 with every single award you could win as a young player, except the UCL. Mind you he was also an influential piece in France's 2018 WC win. But the Media kept claiming he was YOUNG
@Khollinx001 Played like him before. This is not a hate post about anybody. I'm just showing how the media can be fickle and show double standards depending on the player. You could draw comparisons to modric with how Mbappe also propelled his team at the WC. The only difference is the UCL.
@Khollinx001 And couldn't/shouldn't win the ballon dor now( the stated he still had a lot of time to win it) fast forward to 2026 and we're seeing the same thing with Yamal. Yet, the narrative's changed, and the YOUNG label is the reason why he should win it. Cos "no teenager has...
