Laughable postLamal can't possibly know to interpret a game. Raphinha is far superior player. When an opponent goes gung-ho like Villareal did and he has spaces to work with, Lamal can play on instinct and be decisive 1 vs 1 and in spacecs. In much more tactical games such as this, positional games, Raphinha is way ahead in maturity.
All Yamal's highlight actions for the youth teams come from inside positions. I think naturally he likes to go inside. Not saying it's Xavi's orders--more likely it's nervousness/modesty keeping him from commanding the center stage.Lamal can't possibly know to interpret a game. Raphinha is far superior player.

Raphina is clueless what to do with the ball when receiving out wide.
His only advantage over Yamal is movement to arrive at the back of the opposition defence.
But then he wastes sittters like he did against Getafe
You must have amnesia. Raphinha is a fucking donkeySure, I'm not advocating that we freeze Lamal and never play him again. Just that this is not the game for him and that Raphinha should be our starter. All sensible stuff really, nothing extravagant or eccentric.
