Both overrating and discrediting of Mbappe have happened in this thread. Though he's mostly overrated.
And from what I've observed @Raoul has taken the Mbappe over hyping a bit personally because of how he's perceived as superior talent to Rashford(which he is despite being overrated) and that's why he's quick to change the thread title as soon as the kid went a bit quiet.
Beside that, what truly baffled me was hearing the likes of Ferdinand and Gerrard label him as world class after his showing against Bayern. I mean I expect fans and fanboys to write some silly stuff and act so kneejerk like and call him the next Messi but people being paid to be professional pundits, analysts etc shouldn't show such ignorance.
I guess it's based on the assumptions that:
- Bayern is one of the greatest clubs in the world
- Germany is a leading football country that won the last World Cup and that Bayern is the main historical provider of players for the Mannshaft.
On a more serious note, "world class" means nothing and everything. Each football fan has his own and personal definition of "world class".
