19 - Lamine Yamal

[Temptation]

Palmer is carrying a piss poor Chelsea side and has the most G/A in the world since the start of last season in the toughest league in the world.


Yamal is playing against a dysfunctional Madrid side which is widely being mocked by Barca fans and got spanked at home by a side 7th in Serie A.


Palmer is facing tougher opponents consistently while playing for a much weaker team, putting up way better numbers while passing the eye test with flying colours too. Palmer is doing creative and unique things with the ball week in week out.


The lack of objectivity on this forum is hilarious.

Palmer is great, but Yamal is better.

Based on what exactly? Seriously?

Palmer is playing in a far weaker team in a tougher league and putting up better G/A numbers than Haaland FFS.

I find it late but did someone say Isco is a dribbler while FREAKING RONALDINHO is not?

Ronaldinho was not a dribbler. Isco is one.

 

[Total-Football]

Cole Palmer is better. Even in terms of eye test.


Yamal is the best player under the age of 20 though, which is incredible.

The only test that is needed is the eye that sees it that way

This season, G+A

Cole Palmer: 12

Raphinha: 20

Yamal: 14

Palmer doesn’t even play in CL lmao. And is 5 years older than Yamal

Pipe down, stop seething, and take your L.

 

[Temptation]

This season is too small a sample size. Why aren't you including last season? Cherrypicking?

Even within that tiny sample space, Yamal is playing with the 2 best attackers in the world while Palmer is playing with Jackson and Madueke.

Age is irrelevant coz we're talking about the present and not potential.

Palmer doesn't play in the CL coz he got his big break last season for a horrendous Chelsea side. Chelsea are currently in the CL spot this season.

Agreed except you haven't seen Palmer play........

In this era of robotic system players, Palmer is a throwback maverick.

Raphinha: 20

Last season Yamal was 15 going 16.

16 years and 38 days to be specific at the start of last season.

I don't think you want that comparison, that's only going to make Palmer look even worse, OMG he put on better numbers than a kid that just started 16.

last season is also the season Yamal won the euros, scoring or assisting in every K.O game, at 16.

And I like palmer, but you can't spin this in anyway to say palmer has been better than yamal this year, and again yamal is 16-17.

Yamal balling out as Spain beat Italy, Croatia, Germany, France, England in high pressure KOs >>>>> Palmer stats versus some mid table clowns in PL last season

Like I said, stop seething about Barca

So you are saying that this season, Yamal has been better?

But then the argument would be that Palmer has 2 G/A less largely because of the humongous difference in teammates. Jackson and Madueke are nowhere near Lewandowski and Raphinha.

Palmer has 12 G/A in 10 games this season.

@Temptation

- Palmer has been amazing this season and yes he is doing that for a weaker Chelsea side but that also makes it easier to get g/a when you are the main player


- Yamal had a fantastic EURO last season

- At the beginning of the season Flick football didnt work as good as now but Yamal still was outstanding

- point for Palmer would be that he plays in a stronger league and had the better season in 22/23

- Nobody from both is clearly better than the other player, its very close

Not his fault that Southgate didn't give him a chance. And when he got a little bit of playing time, Palmer showed the world that he's great even for his NT. Palmer got 1 goal and 1 assist in 144 minutes played in the Euros.


Literally scored in the final against Spain. Doesn't get more high pressure.

Palmer's final balls are wasted by the likes of Jackson and Madueke who are bang average youngsters.


Yamal is playing with the 2 best attackers in the world. Surely that affects G/A numbers.

Aye, you should understand the difference between balling out all tournament versus a cameo role



I’m 100% convinced you don’t actually rate Cole this highly. It’s just so you can seethe regarding Yamal.
