He has not been mature, he bought into the hype, and played with it. Thought he was made out of Teflon and would have fun with the whole thing. But that's the thing when you're 18, arrogance kills you. He brought it on himself. The litany of videos, the teasing, it all caught up to him and whoever is his comm team( or lack of one).

What's happening now? No team.

What videos are you talking about? You must be really deeply following this because I'm interested in the player and try to follow news but I haven't heard or seen anything that you've mentioned. I've seen his interviews after the England friendly where he just deflected questions. The media in France actually praised him for his maturity with the media, despite not answering these kinds of questions, and if the French media praises anybody it's kind of a miracle on its own.

All of them are in this very thread. He started that fire. The Neymar transfer threw oil onto it.

Really?! I've been following this thread and haven't seen anything of the sort. Unless I missed a couple of pages, since it's now at almost 100. Is there an option to see media only posted on the thread because I'd like to see them.

Its hillarious for barca To make anti psg alliance and put pressure on uefa.:lol: If psg sell some players they are fine. None of this would be a fuss if psg bought from smaller clubs and not the madrid and barca players or targets.

Why aint Barca making a anti city alliance as well , they have been spending the same amounts.

I don't remember who said it, but I loved hearing it, Barcelona is basically complaining that PSG is doing to them what Barca is doing to Liverpool, and what Liverpool is doing to Southampton. It's like a financial food chain and every one is bitching from the bottom-up.
 


So yeah, as I've said...he hasn't done any teasing or flirting with other clubs at all. If this video is enough for you to consider him a little shit who's flirting with clubs left and right and has now caused the destruction of his club, then you really have no sense of humor or even reality.
 
As United fans, we should be more wary than most. Mkitaryan and Kagawa both came with big reputations from a team that scored for fun whilst playing open, quick-paced, direct, free-flowing football. Put either of them in a side that dominated possession and neededd to breakdown organised defences, and they struggled. Mbappe has the same kind of track-record so far. The step-up is huge, even if the level technically is the same.

I'm not above rating a player after one season. But one impressive season at a side like Monaco carries the same weight on your CV as quarter of a season at a team like Juve, Chelsea or, indeed, PSG.

I wouldn't compare a striker with midfielders like Kagawa or Miki.

The ranking of the youngest players who scored 10 goals in the French League over the last 30 seasons gives:

1. Mbappé 18 years and 4 months
2. Dembele 18 y and 10 m
3. Henry 19 y 2 m
4. Martial 19 y 4 m
5. Menez ----------- at his prime he was fantastic in 2012
6. Hazard 19 y 7 m
7. Benzema 19 y 8 m

Any acquisition is always a gamble and depends on the appetite for risk

Keep in mind with Mbappé that it's not even a full season, it was almost exclusively in the second half of the season that he exploded.
 
He's not worth 30 million so if real or psg buys him for the amounts the media is advertising then i have to say thats the biggest sale (robbery) of the century. He had a good few games and suddenly he's the new Ronaldo/Messi

30million is nothing today so he is definitely worth more than that.

Load of nonsense. At this stage he's worth what people are willing to pay. Whether that is value for money will only be evident at the end of his playing time. Both your and mine opinion on his worth is entirely irrelevant at this stage.
 
Yes 30 million is nothing today but people failed to see the big star at monaco aren't the players but the coach, we have falcao who's scoring a shit load of goals and in England he was a flop, all the players look great with him.
Falcao was coming back from a torn ACL. It was always going to take for him to come back to some sort of form.
Falcao scored in the CL too so what does it say about him ?

I always liked falcao and i knew he was a good player but something wasn't working for him in England. But only time will tell us his (Mbappé) real value until then just speculation.

There is no way we'd know what real value means because players cost too much.
The amount quoted are unreal.

lol so why does he look just as good for France also? The guy is lighting quick full of skill and ice cold infront of goal. Like it or not he's not going to just disappear.

Sounds exactly like Michael Owen at the same age.

It can soon turn pear shaped, especially for players based mainly on their pace.

Not worth £30m lol

Moussa ****ing Sissoko was bought for £30m.

Owen was ruined by injuries(and also being a very stupid man). Why do you people keep mentioning him to downplay Mbappé?
 
What an utter joke FFP is.

PSG spending €400 million on two players is Just ridiculous.

From a footballing point of view I can understand Mbappe wanting to go to Madrid, but PSG?

What a kick in the teeth for the Monaco fans.

Have a word with yourself if you don't think he is worth 30M.

Who are you people? :D

I guess it's because when prices like £150m are being thrown around you think of similar players who were alike at the same age. And how quickly it can all go wrong. Especially as I said for pacey players. One injury and they can be ruined. The same can be said for any player but the ones with rapid speed seem to break down a whole lot easier.

From Balon D'or winner to Newcastle in a short space of time.

You do know that Owen won the Ballon d'Or and also scored 40 times for England. If not for his persistent injuries, he could have broken the England scroing record as well. If Mbappe does as well as Owen, he will be doing very well for himself.

Seems to be a caf favourite to use Owen to downplay Mbappé. And yes, anything could go wrong quickly. Pogba could slip in the shower and shatter his leg, would United have been stupid to splash all that cash on him?

im sure all 200 of them will be distraught and crying on their yachts.

That post is a special brand of stupid. Even for you.

There are more logical reasons for him to join PSG than Real Madrid. They've been talked about to death (family, friends, country, better salary, a guarantee of titles, a guarantee of playing time, bigger wages and a team that is one of the favorite for the CL).
 
I saw him play and I can tell you if is worth the 200 million then Messi would be worth 1 billion, they can't even compare the 2 players, I wouldn't trade him for Isco or asencio for example

I agree he isn't worth 200M. But you said he wasn't worth 30.
