Barça continues to live in a phrase that hides the genius of Lamin | Relief

We all have delusions. It’s best to hug them and present them in such a way that on every first date the other person already gets a glimpse of everything that we usually hide. I admit, mine recently woke up and is connected to Pedri. I can’t help but think that at any moment he could lie down on the ground with his hands on his hips and stare into space. I no longer enjoy his passing and control, but only the minutes during which he seems to avoid relapse. Like when you were obsessed with lightning as a child and came home thinking maybe another day, but this time it didn’t hit you. Strange pleasures.

Every morning we will have to repeat to ourselves in an increasingly serious tone that Lamin Yamal is 16 years old. 16. The age at which you take your first steps in love, at which you sneak, blushing and apprehensive, into some dingy nightclub with a fake ID, the age at which you are forced to choose a high school with a slogan about who you already are . . an adult and no longer have to think: “choose your future.” Lamin plays coy because the word “exceptional” is not in his vocabulary. For the fact that the rest would be a feat, something titanic, Lamin conveys with the normality of a person who understands his talent not as a rarity, but as something banal. ““I had to push her,” he said with a smile about his goal. This phrase explains the genius who does not understand genius.but extraordinary normality.

As a club, Barca would do well to embrace the natural talent that comes from behind. There is nothing forced about Gavi’s drive, Kubar’s courage, Pedri’s wisdom or Lamin Yamal’s talent. It is not something imposed, but is born and developed by its own nature. At the collective level, the challenge is to transform individual virtues into something more, integrating what is essentially individual into a living organism.

If I were his father, I would cut off all contacts with external reality for Pau Kubarsi. questionHe didn’t read anything until he was 29 and didn’t have a track record commensurate with his potential.. A young player is no longer judged by his mistakes, but also by those that happen when the game is no longer valid. In the match against Naples there was a fuss about a penalty he took… it was not reported. The same thing happened again with an offside call that ended Becker’s career, but who cares. The tactics always follow the same path, which consists of belittling strengths and exaggerating weaknesses, analyzing without regard to age and experience, as if both things were of little importance. Thus, good games like today’s become the object of public ridicule.

The best part is that there are only three days left until the end of Barça’s season. I attend games like it’s June at school. You knew the best thing about Monday was that you were one day closer to the last day, the taste of chlorine, the itchy eyes, the toasted face and the endless days. We really just want to be kids again in a world that wants us all to be adults.
