He wouldn't get any joy against a Pulis team on an Autumn evening in Staffordshire

Nik (@Rood), Jamie (@Vault Dweller) and Ed (@That'sHernandez) give their end of season awards out! They celebrate the best players, goals and moments of the season (there were some, honestly) and also give out awards for the worst and most disappointing players/moments of the season.
They then discuss all the latest transfer rumours and get into the potential ins and outs this summer at Old Trafford.
Honestly nuts, they look terrified of him. The chance when he cut back on the byline and hit the bar, mental. Spectacular to watch.
Best RW in the world and he’s 17. Madness.
This kids just on another level.
Arguably best player in the world tbf
He makes the majority of his teammates look like donkeys, relative to his technical level - looks like a player who should be alongside Xaviesta and Messi.
I’ve said it before. He’s worth his buy out clause and then some!
Not sure what Inter are supposed to do to stop him.
The hair is making him look like Neymar the way he glides down that wing and level of playmaking, that level of talent but seems a stronger personality even at 17.
Could you imagine if he played in that team. Unbelievable.
Yep, he's right up there already. There's not one player that I can confidently say is better than him.
What a player. Lovely balance reminds you of Figo.
Best player in the world. The way he can take over a game and make defenses look powerless to stop him is Neymar/Messi level.
And he's 17....
Barca must have a deal with the devil to get him AND Messi in the space of 2 generations.

Antony’s been ripping it up I hear!
Had been a bit wasteful and/or selfish over the last few games, but tonight he looks deadly.
Probably the most incredible player I’ve ever seen, all things considered.
Imagine if he ends up having won the treble with Barca and Euros with Spain at age 17
ridiculous.

ridiculous.Incredibly clutch performer already
I keep saying, he's the greatest of all time.
Needs a few more years of Messi level before he gets that title.
Do we get to speculate where he’ll be remembered yet when he retires?
He's had zero at Messi level. He's had zero anywhere near Messi's level.
Kid is amazing, if he keeps progressing it’s going to be scary.
I agree, the lad has potential but he’s not there yet.
Favourite player to watch
I'm really not sure what people are talking about if they say theres a better player in the world this season. Football is about players who make you get up out of your seat, I don't think anyones in Yamal's league for that this season, especially given his end product.
Sort that barnet out before you win the Ballon d'Or fella.
Joint 31st in the La Liga scoring charts. Same as Valverde.
Lets take it easy. Comparing him to players like Messi and saying he is best ever is not helping him. Amazing talent but lets calm down.
And #1 for assists.
Indeed! He feeds some very good players.
Repeat what everyone is saying here. Messi is an almost an unreachable level, but he looks absolutely class.
It's so exciting to think what he could do over the coming years. Not at Messi's level yet and I don't think he'll get quite to that level, but the potential is there for him to do some really, really special things. I mean he's produced outstanding moments already (sorry to go all Rio)
This is what I don't get about stat merchants....
By that logic I suppose Raphinha should win Balon Dor ? and yet any Barca fan in the world will tell you who their best player is.
He’s wasting his life kicking a ball around a pitch with some sweaty men. At 17 I was taking young ladies out on riparian walks to see waterside Victorian follies.
the clause is 1000 million (1 american billion) currently
Raphina is the bookies favourite for the Ballon Dor.
And yet any Barca fan or anyone who's regularly watched Barca this season will tell you who their best player is.
That’s genuinely ridiculous.100th appearance at 17
It's not unusual for fans to have a bias in favour of their youth team graduates. I would take their views there with a pinch of salt.
