00:00 Amazing, I've said it. For that game I don't think that he has been outstanding,
00:07 but he's been key for his team. I said it in the press conference where Ancelotti could have brought him out.
00:15 He took Vinicius out because he knew Bellingham being there in that position.
00:21 Also, Bellingham has the legs to defend and to position himself and identify the correct moment to place either the killer goal
00:33 or through his cleverness, help the collective of the team.
00:38 So, nothing to say, he's just a good player for now.
00:42 You try and compare him with Zidane, it's difficult for us to accept that he could be to that level.
00:48 It's a career, it's a different style, the usage of the ball is different with Zidane and Bellingham.
00:55 It's a bit more straightforward on acceleration. Zidane was more, in France we say 'rupture'.
01:02 But the potential of the talent is quite similar.
