🚨Rayan Cherki on what Michael Olise told him while they were on the bench:
“Olise was sitting next to me on the bench and he said, ‘Bet with me, I’m going to score if the manager brings me on.’
I told him, ‘You’re serious?’ and he said, ‘Of course. Put your money where your mouth is.’
Then the manager brought him on, and honestly, I was just watching to see what would happen.
And then he scored!
The first thing he did was look straight at me. He didn’t even celebrate properly before pointing at me like, ‘Make sure you pay up!’
I was like, ‘Come on, man! You actually scored just to win the bet!’
That’s Olise, though. He has that confidence. He told me he was going to score, he did it, and now I’ll never hear the end of it.”
🚨 Thierry Henry on Michael Olise and the Ballon d’Or conversation:
🗣️ Thierry Henry: “I think we need to start talking about Michael Olise when we talk about the Ballon d’Or.
“And the crazy thing is, he doesn’t even seem interested in making people talk about him.
“He doesn’t make noise. He doesn’t chase attention. He doesn’t spend his time trying to convince everyone that he belongs among the best.
“He just plays football.
“And maybe that’s exactly why people don’t talk about him enough.
“Look at what he is producing. Olise has the most assists in the Bundesliga, the Champions League and the World Cup.
“Read that again.
The most assists in the Bundesliga, the Champions League and the World Cup.
“How is this guy not one of the clear favourites for the Ballon d’Or?
“And when you watch him, the numbers actually make sense.
“His first touch is incredible. His vision is special. He receives the ball already knowing what he wants to do next.
“He plays with confidence without needing to show you that he’s confident.
“He doesn’t need to shout. He doesn’t need to celebrate like he’s proving a point.
“He lets the football do it for him.
“And tonight, again, he showed exactly why he belongs on the biggest stage.
“There are players who have an entire PR machine behind them.
“Every goal becomes a campaign. Every performance becomes another headline.
“Olise doesn’t have that.
“But maybe he doesn’t need it.
Because eventually, your football becomes so good that it creates its own PR.”
🚨🎙️ Thomas Müller on Michael Olise and the Ballon d’Or:
🗣️ “The reason Michael Olise isn’t being mentioned enough among the Ballon d’Or contenders is probably because he doesn’t play in La Liga or the Premier League.
Look at what this guy has done since the start of last season.
36 goals. 38 assists. 74 goal contributions. And he has done it without scoring a single penalty.
He has also won three trophies during that period, so it’s not like these numbers have come without team success.
And tonight, he comes off the bench and scores the winning goal against Belgium for France. Another big international moment.
Sometimes I think if he was doing the exact same numbers in England or Spain, we would be hearing his name every single day.
But because he’s doing it in Germany, people are still sleeping on him.
That’s crazy to me.” 😔❤️🩹
🚨 Zinedine Zidane reveals his message to Michael Olise and Rayan Cherki before sending them on against Belgium:
🗣️ Zinedine Zidane: “Before I sent Michael and Rayan on, I told them one thing: ‘Don’t try to win the game in one action. First, make Belgium uncomfortable.’
“Rayan had to come inside and play between their midfield and defence. Michael had to stay wider initially and wait for the full-back to commit.
“I told Michael, ‘When Rayan receives between the lines, don’t stand next to him. Stay away from the ball. Make the defender choose.’
“Because if Michael comes inside too early, they can defend both of them with the same players.
“But if he stays wide, Rayan can turn, and when the defender moves towards Rayan, Michael attacks the space that opens.
“That was the idea.
“And then I told Rayan, ‘Don’t force the final pass. If they close you, give it back and move again. The second time you receive it, the space will be different.’
“They understood immediately.
“And when Michael scored, I celebrated the way I did because I knew exactly what we had worked on.
“I wasn’t celebrating only the goal.
“I was celebrating the decision.
“Michael received the ball, attacked the space, eliminated the defenders and finished the action himself.
“That is what we had asked him to do.
“For a coach, those are the moments you enjoy most.
When a player doesn’t just follow your instructions, but understands the reason behind them and then produces something special.”
Fabrizio Romano is a scummy, scummy man. Hope people finally start to realise who he is. He is not a journalist, he is not a reporter. He is an aggregator who is on the dole and reporting for clubs across Europe and players as well as agents who are ready to pay him. He will “report” what he is paid to “report”.
@TMfutbal He’s a corrupt sellout plain & simple, 10 years ago he used to do actual football journalism, nowadays he’s using his platform with hella followers to promote whatever bs the highest bidder wants him to…
Lamine Yamal scored a goal, gave an assist, missed a penalty on wednesday and bragged he deserve the ballon dor, Olise replies with a hattrick with no penalty, a beautiful assist whilst Kane had a brace
Musiala metió gol y su nombre fue coreado por todo el estadio.
Hace un mes sufría 2 desmayos y hace un año y meses una lesión de la que volvió en tiempo record.
Emociona.
-“The leaks killed the hype”
-“The game looks so ahh”
-“We’ve seen all the game now”
-“He really exposed Rockstar”
