Indeed...and he's capable to drop wide both left and right like this. That goal against Lyon this weekend came of him moving from wider right position. Having fluid front 3 of him, Rashford and Martial would be mouthwatering. Would set our attack for the next 10-12 years...with Pogba behind them...

I have seen a lot of comparison that I don't really understand like Henry and Ronaldo but with his speed, his movements, his striking abilities and his technique, isn't he the closest thing to Eto'o?
We signed him yet?
Woody is checking the war chest as we speak. Then we GO FOR IT
Awesome!
I've not seen an awful lot of him but I'm always excited when we sign young talented players.
Another good comparison.
Tbh, who knows what he will become?
For me, real top class centre forward prospects have become rarer in recent years. This alone has inflated the market for the few around, as you may literally have to wait a few years for the next one to come along. Mbappé is the jewel of the market in that respect.
Honestly I feel like we are starting to witness history in the making with this kid. You can quote me on this when he turns out to be another Anelka but right now there is something special with him. Turned 18 4 months ago and his finishing looks effortless. He plays with such directness and he scores goals in the CL like he's an established striker in his prime years. If France is going to win an international title it'll be with this kid as their main star.
Nope have to disagree. If even PSG are talking 30mill, plus most top clubs will want him to prove it more over time before breaking the record. I will say it here, "there is no way he will cost £90 mill upfront this summer."
There could be a Sanches deal though. £40 million now, with 10 million when he hits 40 goals, another £15 million when he gets ballon d'or - bronze, £5 million once he settles down and gets married, £8million when he has his 1st kid, £12 million if he scores against all our title rivals (teams in the top 6). I could live with these terms
Goal vs Toulouse
Another game, another goal
Monaco 2:1 Toulouse (Mbappe)
Monaco 2:1 Toulouse (Mbappe)
I know it's only Ligue 1 but that is still ridiculously impressive, what a talent.
Just give them £80m and be done with it.
He cant stop scoring
It just seems illogical to sign him yet I want us to do it so much.
Horrendous keeping
The way he took that chance was something else. Feigned a low cross the whole way through even though he spotted the slither of space the keeper left open. He knew it all along. Raw talent. You don't learn that.
I love how players get interviewed during the match in the French league. They should do that in the Prem as well.
Another game, another goal .
Arsenal won't get him. Don't even understand how they're in the picture in the media.
Wenger connection. He's been talking Mbappé up for months so makes it easy for the media to link to him... ignoring that to sign Mbappé would cost more than their budget for a typical transfer window and Arsenal won't be in the Champions League next season barring a collapse from the teams above.
It's gonna be another one of those :
'We were looking at him before anyone else.'
Those pop up every 2 weeks. They can't compete on any front. As bad as we've been since Fergie left, they're, as of this moment, in an even less enviable position.
Currently on 24 goals and 5 assists in all club competitions. 5 in the CL and 14 in the league.
Feels like every goal I've seen him score this season is on far edges of the box like that
Which is a sign of being a good finisher.
I eat my words portugese fan I discussed with, he is a Cristiano Ronaldo level talent but still dont think Messi'esque.
That was a long time ago like the poster stated.
To be fair, we might wait another 30 years for a Messi level player to come along again.
Hard one cause as we know these young players leaving their country of origin for what will be a world record price very rarely works out. He needs to stay there for another couple of seasons as if he came here, I can see a Depay situation or like Pogba if he doesn't hit the ground running.....the media and forum vultures will be circling.
Wait you guys think Rashford is as good as Martial or as talented?We finally agree on something
I think you guys are confusing being favored by a manager to being better than another player. Just watching what a confident Martial can do to what a confident Rashford can do and it's clear who is better and more talented.
Buffon on Mbappé: http://www.football-italia.net/101831/buffon-mbappe-wasnt-even-born
The biggest test of his very short career now. Juventus are too good at the back, he will struggle big time IMHO.
As much as I'd love Mbappe I think we need someone premier league experienced as we already have Rashford and Martial (kids). Lukaku would be a safer buy initially. Can't believe I'm saying that but think Jose may go this route and understandable. Lukaku and Griezmann partnership would be awesome and solve our goal scoring problem instantly.
He's amazing. Extremely clever runs, amazing technique, great finisher. Looks like a future world's best.
He has R9 levels of talent, that acceleration is frightening.
Brazilian? He has, maybe not the magic but the speed, acceleration, control, sharpness, finishing and positioning is so similar.
I think those hands on the hips said a lot about how he's feeling being at Monaco. Must be frustrating having all that talent and feel it bleed unstoppable because the club can't match your ambitions. He should talk to his staff and push for a move this summer while he's still hot.
Comfortaby Monaco's most dangerous player.
WUM? Ambition? He's playing in the CL semi finals.
