"What's worrying about Lamine Yamal isn't the injury itself. In the locker room, they're downplaying it, and sources at Barça admit he's almost completely free of discomfort in his groin, but it's normal that he's not at 100% because he lacks match fitness. What is a bit concerning is that to recover from a delicate injury like this, you have to be very disciplined and strictly follow the instructions of the physiotherapists and rehabilitation specialists, and Lamine sometimes struggles with that. Managing Lamine isn't always easy."
"[Messi] never missed a session, [and] sometimes they had to hold him back because they're competitive animals and sometimes he pushed himself too hard. You have to do boring, mechanical, repetitive exercises and follow certain guidelines. That's just how it is, there's no other way. He has to focus and strive for recovery, be disciplined like Messi was."
Lamine Yamal has a delicate groin injury and currently lacks full match fitness. Locker room sources say he is almost completely free of groin discomfort, but not at 100% because of fitness issues. Recovery from this type of injury requires strict discipline and adherence to physiotherapists' and rehabilitation specialists' instructions. Lamine sometimes struggles to follow those instructions, making management challenging. Comparisons are drawn to Messi, who never missed a session and sometimes had to be held back because of competitiveness. Recovery demands boring, mechanical, repetitive exercises and a focused, disciplined approach similar to Messi's.
