We're making fun of him because it's funny and fun, but you have to respect defenders that go against big time offensive players, at a clear disadvantage because defending is a lot about reacting instead of proacting, knowing fully well they're eventually going to get humiliated.
Just like shot blockers in basketball that contest every shot knowing fully well they'll eventually get posterized. Takes balls and bravery.
So I feel for you Jerome. It was funny and fun to laugh at you but I still respect your skills and bravery in defense.
Don't leave zanela, this defeat of bayern is what you were waiting for for a long time you should be gloating right now.

aww cute, and look when he signed up, April 2013
The overall point is, for example, Pique was shit against Bayern 2 years ago due to poor tactics (?) yet no one including me questions that he has been good this season regardless of some blunders back then. Boateng is a great CB like everyone could see last summer in the WC final and one mistake which made him look silly makes no difference really, now does it? Make fun of him all you want if you like to but I'm just standing up for my player as would you.
to be honest, Boateng was just the wrong guy at the wrong point. That turn by Messi would have worked on every defender, he just additionally fall to the ground there which made it look ridiculous. If he had stayed on hsi feet though, the goal would have still happened. Its funny to look at but not a measurement for Boateng as a defender.
Except the video you shared does not convey that message at all...
