Van Bommel Says Yamal Is Better Than 17-Year-Old Messi
Ex-Bayern Munich star Mark van Bommel has boldly claimed that Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal is ahead of Lionel Messi at the same age. Speaking with Voetbalzone, Van Bommel said Yamal is doing far more at 17 than Messi did when he first broke into Barcelona’s senior team.
“In Messi’s early days with the first team, he didn’t play as many matches as Yamal is playing now,” the Dutchman explained. “For that reason, at 17, Yamal is better.” However, Van Bommel made it clear there’s still a long way to go for the young Spaniard if he wants to be anywhere near Messi’s legendary status.
“Messi has stayed at the top for twenty years, which is unbelievable,” he said. “If Yamal hopes to match Messi’s goal record, he’ll need to bag around 500 more. That’s nearly 30 goals every season.” Van Bommel, who also played for AC Milan, praised Yamal’s potential but admitted he isn’t the best in the world yet. “He’s not the best right now, but he’s definitely on the right path.”
Former footballer Paul Scholes condemns Martin Odegaard and speaks on his performance in the Arsenal team.
The football legend shared how it is the captain that is bringing the team down, as he is not playing his position properly “That game on Saturday [Arsenal vs Newcastle], I didn’t see all of it, I probably saw the first half an hour, but I think Odegaard is a big problem for them.”
“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
