I can see where the Henry comparison comes from but this kid reminds me off Owen when he first burst onto the scene. But neither Henry or Owen were doing it in the UCL at the same age as Mbappe. Hope he stays at Monaco.
Kylian Mbappé | Player Performance Thread
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
I think that the technically sound part is why people don't mention him much, he doesn't do flashy thing buy his first touch and the way he moves with the ball looks so effortless that it's almost forgettable, his passing is also top notch. The way he moves with the ball reminds me Iniesta, I have seen Lemar play as a CM and it was good but he should be given more opportunities.
I agree, he reminds me of David Silva in the way he moves with the ball. Could play in a 3 man midfield easily I imagine.
Wrong.
The way I see it, Mbappé should only move for a club that sees him as a starter and not for a club that sees him as an 18 years old player who can play here and there. Particularly since he is playing for a club that is relatively competitive, a club who reached the CL quarter finals twice in 3 years.
A post of grandure. Fully agree unfortunately. We are shoite and he needs to look at how our skilful youngsters are being treated and handled by an old man who has to prove his managing of Chelsea last year was not an anomaly. Stay clear mbappe.
Looks a smashing player, not seen loads of him but you can just tell. Silva too loks brilliant.
Shiny new toy syndrome. Mbappe is an exciting, upcoming talent so our 21 year old is now yesterday's news.
A goal/assist every 60 minutes? Do not want.
Mourinho will probably hate his guts, amirite?
Blimey. I know there are a lot of factors to consider but we should be doing everything possible to sign him.
Wow
He'll definitely be a special player and is someone we should definitely go out and secure.

Would it work if Martial was included in a deal to have a bigger chance than the other clubs? Maybe Monaco would be interested in this too? Don't think Martial will risk missing out on WC 2018 and might want to change clubs, since Mourinho seems to not like his performances.
Will stunt Martials progress, don't want.
Chelsea fan and he also played a junior game for us a few years ago. I've decided he counts as a Chelsea youth product.
He is a glory hunter, first Real and now Chelsea
Like those exist.
There's loads of them. Just not in the Chelsea first team.
Nobody tell Marca about this... Poor souls..
Don't you worry, they have the photoshop skills.

@ youth productNah if he whoring out to the francos and the chavs he can do one.
And it's not like there aren't alternatives. Pulisic for example.
He is a great talent but we need players who want to play for us.

That google translates to "poo finger dirty shirt".
I was agreeing with you? If you are talking about Pulisic, he's an United fan.
Give 'em £150K a week and they'll want to play for you.
Not everyone sports the international following, recognition and history of Chelsea. Us others have to resort to money.
Seriously though, kids like Mbappe grew up watching Drogba and co in their prime. It's not a surprise that a young French lad might have followed the likes of Didier, Makalele, Anekla and Malouda.
He is born in 98.
Yeah I know, just trying to take the piss. A new generation of footballers now that grew up in a period when Chelsea was hugely successfull as well. I can already tell the difference from the young supporters in Norway, previously it was only United and Liverpool but these days you get a fair share of Chelsea supporters in there as well. Changing landscapes I guess.
Must watch myself carefully so I don't become like my bitter uncle sitting around pissed at family get togethers talking about when Liverpool was the biggest and baddest around.
Would be the best thing for him, forget Madrid, United, Bayern and Barcelona, stay with Monaco for sure.
You do realize those pictures are from when he was young? I didn't realize a young kid wearing the kits of his Idol or having pics of his favorite player counts as whoring out now.
Not the greatest list of fan favourites minus Drogba tbh.
This whole supporting a side growing up is a sham, Ronaldo used it as an excuse when he joined Madrid. For many players it simply doesn't matter.
Maybe Mbappe is friends with Martial and Pogba? Varane and Benzema could be the best men at his wedding. Hell Falcao could have told him how great London is.
If I'm a player I want to experience football in all major leagues and I'm a massive United fan.
Three mins in, another goal.
He is more Ronaldo than Messi tbf, what an excellent finisher, always at the right place.
He's ridiculous.
Scored again but Mendy with a fantastic run to create the chance.
Overrated Lingard or something
