Luke Littler [competitive Darts star] on Lamine Yamal: "He hasn't achieved much"

...[T]he two-time darts world champion then made it clear how highly he rates his own achievements. "The way I win my matches, perform, and win titles, I'm probably the best there is."

Littler was considerably more critical of Yamal. The Barca star has already won the World Cup with Spain and is considered one of the greatest talents in world football.

But for Littler, that's not enough. "I mean, he didn't really do much, did he? He maybe scored one goal. And provided one assist."

Yes, the famously broad player pool of competitive darts has undoubtedly produced the most noteworthy young athlete in the world. No word on his thoughts as to the achievements from the disc golf and quadball communities...

I mean, little fella really does seem to be a darts prodigy. It's impressive. It's also darts.

I don't agree with the general sentiment, but this bit isn't unfair, assuming it refers solely to Yamal's World Cup:

"I mean, he didn't really do much, did he? He maybe scored one goal. And provided one assist."

Littler is right with that IMO - Yamal did virtually nothing at the World Cup (in contrast to his superb Euro 2024).
