๐จ๐๏ธ Gareth Bale on Luis Enrique subbing off Dembรฉlรฉ in the 66th minute against Bayern Munich
โWhen I saw that moment of Luis Enrique subbing off Ousmane Dembรฉlรฉ in the 66th minute of a massive Champions League night, I was shocked but the ladโs reaction shocked me furtherโฆ.he simply urges his teammates to keep up the pressure, walks straight over, shakes his managerโs hand, no words, no face, no drama, and sits down like itโs the most normal thing in the world.
Thatโs why heโs absolutely flying under Enrique right now. Heโs bought into the system completely โ tracks back, presses, puts the team first, perfect display of humility, no ego. No wonder heโs Ballon dโOr standard and thriving.
At Real Madrid it was exactly the same: no player was ever bigger than the club, no matter how many goals youโd scored, how many titles youโd won, or what the fans chanted. You accepted the gafferโs decision because the badge came first.
These days too many lads have this entitlement mentality , I am pretty sure I can make a list naming names of these players โ sub them off and they sulk, they storm off, they make it about themselves. Footballโs changed, but the ones who still get it, like Dembรฉlรฉ under Enrique, are the ones who end up winning everything.โ
