"While Lamine Yamal is performing at an absolutely unmatchable level for FC Barcelona and shining match after match, the minutes for Roony Bardghji have decreased somewhat. The 20-year-old Swedish winger, who was signed from FC Copenhagen in the summer, was always aware that regular game-time was going to be an issue with Lamine being the first choice in his position."
"Lamine has now completed three consecutive full matches in a row, in which he has scored three and assisted one goal, making himself an indispensable figure for the manager. Excluding the match against Slavia Prague, when he was suspended, the 18-year-old has played every minute in seven of the last eight matches in which he was available. In the remaining one, he played 80 minutes."
"This situation has caused Bardghji to fade somewhat from view. He did start against Slavia in that game in which Lamine was absent, but he has now gone three consecutive matches without playing. Looking at the last eight fixtures, Bardghji has gone five without playing a single minute, played six minutes in another, 12 against Real Oviedo, and the 61 minutes of Champions League football in Prague."
Lamine Yamal is performing at an unmatchable level for FC Barcelona, scoring three and assisting one across three consecutive full matches and playing nearly every available minute. Roony Bardghji, a 20-year-old Swedish winger signed from FC Copenhagen, has seen his minutes decrease as Lamine occupies Bardghji's preferred position. Bardghji started the Slavia match when Lamine was suspended but has since gone three consecutive matches without playing. In the last eight fixtures Bardghji had five matches with no minutes, one with six minutes, 12 minutes against Real Oviedo and 61 minutes in Prague. Hansi Flick praises Bardghji's attitude and high-intensity training, and the youngster's opportunities are expected later in the season.
