Luis Figo: "Bellingham? He started very strongly and adapted very quickly to what Real Madrid means and what it is. Is he one of the best players in the world? Yes, definitely, because of his talent and the commitment he shows despite his young age." pic.twitter.com/6ym1Z5pOMS— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) September 15, 2023
It caught my eye when I saw him screaming VAMOS during his celebration with England. Seems like a complete different personality from Bale.
Happy as long as it's our guys and we win the league. But Jude is a safer bet given his start and Vini missing few games due to injury.
Rio Ferdinand: "Bellingham? He is going to be pitted against people like Gerrard, Lampard, Scholes, and I would say right now, comfortably, that none of those players were doing anything like what he's doing at this age and that's the yardstick." pic.twitter.com/h2SrZpU8Rv— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) September 16, 2023 Rio Ferdinand: "Bellingham can go on and win Ballon d'Ors. I'll be very surprised if this kid doesn't finish his career with at least one, maybe two or three Ballon d'Ors, because I think he's that good." pic.twitter.com/0WQ9B6EEMO— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) September 16, 2023 Rio: "There's been players who stand out ability wise maybe the same or a bit more than him and you could argue. But I don't think there's been, which I think is the most important part of it, that one that has come out with the mentality that this kid has to do what he's doing."— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) September 16, 2023 Rio Ferdinand: "To go to Real Madrid and be the best players in his first four or five games is phenomenal, unheard of." pic.twitter.com/4t2e0ltYBt— Madrid Universal (@MadridUniversal) September 16, 2023

Schuster "Bellingham doesn't faint in admiration of Modric and Kroos, he stands next to, and he learns from them." "In the streets people don't talk about anything else, nothing else matters, it's all about Bellingham, and nothing else."
Bellingham has a great attitude, the impact on the pitch is wonderful but for me the attitude has a lot to do with that. Very different from most players these days who prioritize money are the limelight, Bellingham seems to have thought very carefully about how to develop and purposely put himself on a path that has been consistent with growing into his immense potential. And like Modric and Kroos, he's here out of admiration for the club, not $$$.
He has that drive to be the best on top of having amazing talent. It's a rare combination and with some luck it will take him to the top. Amazing that we have young players like him and Vinicius (who also has that same drive) and Camavinga and Federico. These players are the envy of world football and we signed them.
They all prioritized the club, it contributed to a great culture inside the dressing room. We are often down and we consistently come back, equalize and then go ahead. Mentality is great with this group.
