    He literally won the most important game of the brasileirão for palmeiras almost by himself, basically securing the title. He is used to pressure
  • That's funny coming from the Spain camp when they jump at the opportunity to call up the young boys at Barca every year
  • @Cluelessracing
    Those that's bashing him only saw him play on the weekend, the dude literally helped palmerias win multiple titles in brazil.
  • @-ACE.
    Endrick will be fine. If he moved to spain without any brazilians on his side, I would have been worried for him, but he has many Brazilians playing with him and will help him adapt. And Bellingham leadership and Camavinga also seem to be extra friendly with everyone which will make Endrick life easier. Also he has a lot of young talent on his side. Maybe not as young as him, but few years apart isn't bad at all.

    The pressure will be there sooner or later, the issue is how patient Endrick himself is in terms of dealing with the pressure. Also, Real Madrid fans can look at Rodrygo who has to play out of position & a different role for the team, yet Real Madrid fans don't have patience or understanding. Footballing culture, media & fans need to be more nuanced & patience.

    Endrick the next Pele, Bellingham the next Ballon d'Or, Donnarunma the next Buffon. I've gotten accustomed to it by now. Social media reels are to blame.

    He'll be fine. He grows in the sunshine.

    Even when Messi was 17 years old they were pressuring him with the comparisons to Maradona, but now it seems like every prospect gets that kind of pressure and people hold them to their expectations.
  • 🏆 Brasileirão 2022 🏆 Brasileirão 2023 🏆 Campeonato Paulista 2023 🏆 Super Copa do Brasil 2023 He isnt this kind of youngster
  • The Spanish manager is absolutely right but am surprised how he concerned about opposition player
  • @CG68810
    Yes, it is too much pressure. It is ridiculous how carried away some people get on these young players. The kid has a ton of talent, but to put those expectations on him, is nonsense. Not for nothing, but the goal he scored, I could have scored. He was standing right in front of the goal and the ball came directly to him and he just kicked it in. I am an FC Barca fan and all I see from people about Lamine Yamal, and other young Barca talent is that they are the next Messi or going to be one of the all-time greats. Please stop. Leave them alone and let them develop on their own without you fan-boying all over them. All you are doing is setting them up to fail. The number of "wunderkinds" that were called the next great player and fizzled out are numerous. One minute they are the chosen ones by these people and the next minute they don't produce, they are tossed aside.
  • @gslang3489
    Maybe De La Fuente has learned something finally. He still called up Lamine and Cubarsi.. They should be in Barca getting a breather. Atleast he used them off the bench instead of starting
  • Having to play against the best in the world, yea, you can question it. But if anyone questions Endrick's ability to deal with "pressure" then they don't know ball LOL no game in europe can match the pressure of a south american derby
  • @hassansalvo7507
    Totally agree. Hate these comparisons all the time by the media
  • @trappedmaze
    It doesn't matter because i might have my opinions about Real Madrid but they've did the right thing here because just look at Neymar before he joined Barcelona he was already a star in Brazil Neymar was given the crown before he dug deep and just focused on football and thats just glamour and money this Endrick kid is in the perfect environment and I definitely expect the glory days of Brazil to come back once again in the years ahead
  • @oPorks
    Brazilian here, Endrick said that he never trained legs at the gym.
