Oh.

Yes.
We've been waiting. We're working overtime just to be able to
speak to
you.
How are you?
Hello. What's up?
Hey, English, huh?
Hey.
In English. Oh, la la.
What's up?
How, how do you feel about speaking to us in
English?
Or does it have to be in Spanish?
No, now in Spanish, because I understand, but I can't answer
anymore.
Okay, so he understands a lot, but he, he doesn't, he can't, he can't answer,
which
I understand. That happens a lot. Go ahead.
Thierry's gonna ask you a few questions.
Uh, first—
I'll translate.
First, Lamine, uh, uh, uh, Lamine, uh, uh, congratulations
again. What you're doing is—
Congratulations again for what you're doing
It's incredible. I don't know,
I don't know what else to say. But, but, can you, can you explain the
rabona feint and also what you did before
to make space, uh, to keep the ball and go one-on-one
with the defender, but the rabona, why, why did you do that?
The rabona, the move that Thierry explained earlier on,
on the screen, can you
explain what, what you d—
Well—
Sorry, go ahead
…
Uh, uh, lately I noticed that defenders
every time I get to the byline
would go to ground. And, well, I saw the opportunity,
I saw that I could
get past them, it looks nicer, uh, and it's worked out for me, so, uh, I'm very
happy. And I always try to use feints to
make space.
You know very well, that defenders always try to
get close to you and all that
that they be feints to create space, because they give us life.
Mm.
That was a complicated answer for me. Go ahead.
That was very—
Oh, you want me to an—
Yes. Yes, you translate that one.
Well, he said, uh, he realized in the game that, uh, the,
the players were always
diving when the ball was going wide.
And so, you know, he tried it because he,
he thinks it's a beautiful move and
it was going to work. And then the, the first move, that's,
that's what you do
to create space. He said, "I, I would know that, uh,
myself because I used to play, uh, up front." Look,
um, a-a—
We're being told that Lamine has to go
I, I wanted to ask you, do you think the treble is possible?
Always, we're Barça.
Hey.
For me, the best team in the world.
Woo.
So Thierry asked him, "Do you think the treble is possible?"
And Lamine said,
"Always. We're Barcelona. We're the best team in the world."
Before, before—
Very, very quickly, Lamine
I'll go. Before he goes, tell him I'm going to see him next week.
I'm coming to the game.
Yeah.
Oh, m— Micah says he'll see you next week,
that he's coming to the game.
So make sure you come and see me.
Please, come visit him.
Where are we going?
Come see him in Paris.
In Madrid.
El Clásico. El Clásico, yes.
Ye—
No, no, no, no, no, no

Ah, Paris.
In the Champions League. In the Champions League, he'll tell you.
The Champions League, yes.
Ah, but it's Barcelona, uh, yeah.
Ah, in Paris.
Yeah, Paris.
In Paris.

Yes.
Okay. See you, my friend.
See you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you, Lamine.
Good luck.
Bye.
I love the mustache. Oh, God, he's gone.
Well, I'm glad we didn't wait until 11:30.
That was quick.
Just like the way you dribble past people.
Oh.
