Kylian Mbappe | PSG

Its not just you. Each positive touch he has will be inflated many times beyond any normal player who made the same touch and each poor touch will be ignored. Its part of the hype machine.
It works both ways, after his decent but not great group games many in France were criticizing him very harshly, that he was trying to do too much, was big headed, should talk less in the media and focus more on the game... That's the lot of superstars and he's quickly becoming the main man for the French NT.
 
I'm starting to see what all the fuss is about. He is clearly a very talented young player.

Shame no one said a word in here. Just waited for him to do an 100m sprint. He wasn’t even the best player for France yesterday. Pogba was, but that’s another story. Main man? You believe that?
 
Be Be Right Back Back. Fontaine is that you?

On a more serious note, what you just said is totally your own (biased) opinion. How many times have you watched EPL and La Liga?

They won't reply as they know it's nonsense.

Wolves would be top 5 in France.
 
The comparisons between Mbappe and the young Brazilian Ronaldo are off. Mbappe is much less of a trickster and focuses more on pure power than the Ronaldo. The best comparison I can come up with George Weah. Incredibly quick, powerful and a good dribbler but without the skills and tricks of R9.

Agreed.
 
But he's not, he's in France the country he was born in, playing for the city he grew up in. So feck off with your biased opinion as if he's wasting his career because he's not playing in your league, he'll go to Real Madrid next and even if he did it four years from now, he'd still only be 23. He's got plenty of time on his side, I'm not getting why people are acting like he's only got a few years left to ply his trade. He's getting all the chances to shine on a big stage in the CL, and playing in France certainly didn't seem to affect him yesterday.

Also, he has a much better chance of winning the CL with Paris than he would with, say, Manchester United.

It's not a biased opinion that your league is fecking shite. It's a fact. He'll use PSG as a stepping stone before moving to a real footballing powerhouse like Real, Barca, Bayern or United.

Now go dry your eyes you cry baby.

PSG bought fecking Neymar. You can't know what the kid's motivation will be in a few years time. He may well be interested only in money, and they happen to be bankrolled by a country.

Yes he will win the champions league with PSG. Because PSG has reached the final 5 times in the last ten years
 
A lot of people replying here have been watching him (at the very least) in the Champions League two seasons ago so know his talent from then.
But watching him in the past two years did show talent, but nothing extra-(Ronaldo, CR7, Messi)-ordinary.

You sir are very quick at spotting talent. You just need to dismiss a spanish world class playmaker because of the size of his head and you qualify for a scouting position at Man United;)
 
He looks a lot better than he did with PSG in the CL.

Physically I think he's hit a turning point very recently. As a teen he will be changing quite a lot of course. He looks in body shape more like the Brazilian Ronaldo than ever before, especially in his thigh strength.

PSG is a much better team than Manchester United, you're just bitter about the fact that you have no chance at this kid. He will go to Real Madrid since that's his dream, don't try to include United with the Bayern, Real, or Barca of this world. You have a long way to go to get there again. Now go dry your eyes and keep bitching about the fact he's not playing in England, where he would be downgrading his career playing for this Manchester United side. BTW, I'm only using your chidlish response against you since it's probably all you can understand because, really, you're the only one who seems to be crying about the fact he's not playing where you'd like, get over it.

Who cares? It's about timing, and right now I feel the CL is wide open with how Madrid is coming to the end of an era. It's not really obvious who is up in line to win the Champion's League and PSG have as much of a chance as any favorites out there with the players they have. Mbappe has as good a chance to win the CL in Paris than he would anywhere else at this time.

Pogba had an outstanding game but I don't know how you can say he played better than Mbappe and just reduce him to a 100m sprint? Mbappe was just incredible that game.
 
In any league most of the opponents are cannon fodder, exactly the same in Spain and England.
Not for us they aren't. If he wants a true challenge he should try to be the best while we simultaneously try our best to make him shit.

You would think two goals and an assist aren't worth a thing in a 4-3 elimination game. Ridiculous. However, that's how it is. As crazy as the hype can go up, the criticism will get just as ridiculous.

What on earth are you talking about you poor deluded creature? The EPL is a VASTLY superior league than Ligue Un. If Mbappe wants to be considered one of the very best he will have to deliver in one of, or both, the EPL and La Liga. Being the main man for a school style project like PSG iwhilst playing in a tin pot European league won't cut it sadlly.

That is a fact. Only an idiot would think otherwise.
 
There's nothing weird about having a different opinion on Rashford. Especially when posters on here think he's better than Mbappe.
What is amusing that many people in this country, about 12 months ago, believed that Rashford was as good, if not better, than Mbappe.


There were long discussions about Mbappe vs Rashford. Trust me....I saw them.
The issue for some was that he had only had 1 good season and that he cannot be judged on that alone.
The other issue was that he did well in the French league, while Rashford was doing well in the EPL.
I'm sure, even now, some believe that Rashford is as good as Mbappe.

On a similar note, some have said (and continue to say):
1, L.Shaw is the best LB in the EPL
2, Had Shaw not got injured, we'd have won the league title with LVG
3, Martial is a future Ball on Dor winner.
4, Ronaldo is not good enough to play for MUFC.
I'm sure that there are some other amusing gems out there. ;)


You convincingly missed the post where in a poll 87% people said that Mbappe was better and that was one year ago. Stop posting bullshit. Mbappe is always favored heavily in these threads and rightly so.

Wolves would be top 5 in France.
You don't have to respond against what you perceive to be stupid with even more stupidity now

The PL and La Liga are much better no doubt but he won't need to perform in those league to be considered as what you said. If PSG manages to win a CL in the near future with him playing a big role, it would have a bigger impact than winning the league in those countries.
 
Mbappe on the right for us will be electric. Come on United, he will be the perfect world record signing for us.
 
The most impressive thing about him is how direct he is. He gets the ball and the first thing he does is to dribble towards the goal. Not always the best option but it's good to watch.

He is probably the fastest player in top leagues, his ball control and finishing is very good. More than anything his composure and decision making is too good for such a young player.

I remember some posters saying Rashford is better lol. Marcus is good but come on Mbappe is in a separate league of his own. His speed, technique and composure are really top. Argentina couldn't handle him.

Well he basically does what everyone wishes Martial would do, use his explosive pace to make great runs in behind the defensive line or run at defenders with pace where as Martial seems to favor cutting inside all the time and wasting a lot of opportunities this way.
 
Anyone who thinks he is gonna do a Messi or Ronaldo needs to get a grip. Arguing that it's possible doesn't make it any less unlikely. Fat Ronaldo was a lot lot better than mbappe at that age and didnt kick on. Rooney was the bigger talent. It's very hard road from here to reach the top top.
 
Some of the comments on this are outrages, the boy was Superb on Saturday and easily France best player, Argentina might be bad at the back but christ have a look around world football just now there aint exactly much teams apart from Uruguay and Ath Madrid who are great at the back. at 19 hes miles ahead of were Ronaldo was in his development and before people jump on the band wagon i aint saying hes going to be better then Ronaldo. He by far the best young player in the world at the moment, personally think another 2/3 years in the french league wont hurt him but i think after that if he continues to develop he should be looking at an elite club to take his talents to the next level.
 
Your loss if you can’t enjoy Mbappe. Zero idea what the future holds for him. But the hype isn’t new. Since bursting on to the scene, he has constantly been impressive. As impressive as any can be at that age. He might just flop but nothing tells me why he would if he continues his development with obviously ability that is there for everyone to see.

Uh? Ronaldo destroyed his knee, Rooney was the bigger talent than who?

Reaching Messi/Cristiano levels is one thing but it's very rare for players that good at that age to not become all time greats

To be fair to Rooney, he had 3? Injuries to the foot and it seemed to Traveller him - especially going into big Tournaments with England.

He clearly wasn't.

He probably won't hit 40/50 goals a season like them, but that's not anything to be upset about. Those 2 are absolute legends and only another freak of nature will get close to it again.

Mbappe is the real deal though, I said this the first time I saw him and I stick by it now. He's got everything you need as modern forward.

Acceleration/Pace is top notch, dribbles really well even at speed, his movement is very smart, positions himself well.

The main thing though is he's ICE COLD in front of goal, he just has that killer instinct you need. He doesn't want to faff around outside the box getting involved with too much build up either. He gets it, lays it off then flies into the box. A true goal scorer that'll only get better with age unless he gets awful injuries.

Yeah, it's something that people don't realize he played his first game for Monaco at 16. Monaco used him upfront despite the fact that it wasn't his position and looked like a 22/23 years old player. Like you said you can't really tell what the future is made of just look at M'Vila who was really good at 19 and then let his idiocy destroy his career.
 
He is going all the way to the top, his talent and trajectory stake him a claim as this generations Ronaldo. He has go that ability and way about how he plays which is just a bit 'freakish' for his age; see Ronaldo, Rooney, Messi etc. it just feels inevitable that he will reach the very top. Superb young player.
 
He clearly wasn't.

Rooney had the same potential as Ronaldo and Messi back then. He was England's golden boy. Perhaps he did reach his potential for one season, then his physical peak was reached. Then he became less of the player he was season by season after.
