i love messi but a lot of guys can put up crazy stats in la liga
Too many useless teams. As much as they say Ligue 1 is a farmers league, at least most of the defenders are athletic with size at the lesser level. La Liga likes to have clowns defending when it comes to the lower half of La Liga. I get it, Ligue one got like 4-5 good teams and the rest is just mid or worse but at least the defending got some type of athleticism or size. Shaq Moore was in La Liga playing at once and he's trash. nikkas act like it ain't some horrendous teams in La Liga. The Premier League is far more challenging.

LMAO, a team that dominated, damn near the greatest international squad of all time didn't score goals ya'll?
Yes. Go look at their goals per match at the 2010 World Cup. They had four against Ireland in Euro 2012 and another four in that final against Italy, but they struggled to score in that tournament outside of those two matches.

Breh, one of your fukking arguments was that Messi took penalties he didn't earn.

That was my argument for those goals NOT being relevant to how well Messi was playing. It didn't have jack shyt to do with whether or not he should have taken him. I just said that racking up a bunch of penalty shot attempts that you didn't even draw yourself doesn't prove you are playing well.




You have made arguments this entire thread that showed you either don't know shyt about football

I'd say at least 3-1 odds I've played football at at least as high a level as you have if not higher. But that's a deflection irrelevant to this argument.




PENALTIES ARE A PART OF THE fukkING GAME. Your 'in play' argument is ignorant as fukk. I have been deliberately silent when others were coming at you, but right now you and you nonsense stats can fukk off.

WTF does it matter if they're part of the game? They're still not indicative of how well any individual is playing.




Nothing worse than someone who can't realize when their argument is shyt.:scust:

Can't take anything you say seriously going forward.

Fraud

lol at the lack of self-awareness here.

They dominated every fukking game. I watched the games. It was artistry. Xavi and Iniesta dominated with Barca and Spain. nikka, what are you talking about. But but, Fernando Torres can't score like Messi, so what, we already know that. Messi is a GOAT-level nikka, Torres is a great player for his era but he's not close to guys like Henry, Sheva, and Zlatan, fukk being as good as Messi or CR7 for that era and he was having struggles at that time at the club level too. He wasn't peak Torres.

It's just dumb to compare Mbappe to Messi, Messi's skills are just on a whole another level. Basically a GOAT talent that didn't waste a single ounce of that talent.

Even if Mbappe is ever able to match his statistical output it will be extremely difficult to do it consistently over 12-15 year period. And I don't even like to put this out in the ether but with Mbappe's style of play, that's reliant on pace, a single major injury would significantly affect his future.

Mbappe is an amazing player, enjoy the way he's playing now instead of prognosticating what might happen in 5-10 years time because so much shyt can go wrong. We've seen amazing talents derail their careers due to personal, mental or criminal circumstances :francis:

Exactly. MBappe is special as fukk and we should praise him. Saying he will surpass Messi is peak "I don't know what I am talking about" talk.

Just praise Messi and Mbappe and let it be without comparing the two.

Why is it, when Messi stans start talking about Messi, it's always some fairy tale shyt. His skills are on a whole other level. nikka, show us these otherworldly skills that make him so much better than Pele or Mbappe because I don't see it and NEVER seen it. It's just some delusional nikka babble. He scored 91 goals in a year. Yeah, but he was doing it against trash squads with an elite, ATG squad. What did he do against the best of the best? But but but, he's being marked by two players. So is Mbappe, he got a hat trick and shytted on nikkas in the world cup finals, what else nikka? At least MJ got better than elite stats when it matters in Finals, can't say the same about Messi but I can about Mbappe or Pele. He balled out today but Mbappe was better.

At 17, he carried trash ass Monaco to 1st in Ligue 1 and led Monaco to the semi's by himself.
At 19, carried France to a WC title.

All this nikka has ever done was be the best the game has seen and all he gets is goofies hating like bytches. But but Messi. Messi did his best and Mbappe's best was better.

Messi is an alien. 1 of 1. Himothy.

Mbappe is two elite players in one. It's like Henry combined with CR7. You can't fukk with that. Mbappe to me is Pele with modern training and modern medicine. Mbappe will be the GOAT. It's happening no matter what. He even got Pele's elite fitness level. He just doesn't have that work rate and likely never will but neither did Maradona. I don't like saying this because R9 is one of the all-time greats but I strongly feel he's a combo of R9 and CR7. It's insane how good Mbappe is. I hear some idiots like, what about at PSG. He do this shyt at PSG too. PSG got too many cooks in the kitchen and I don't like the way their squad is build. I would rather Mbappe on Liverpool, Real, or Munich.

You get some tough-minded midfielders at Pool and get Mbappe to play with Salah and Firmino. OMG. Ya'll think what Haaland is doing is crazy, way to you see all of the chances Mbappe gets with Liverpool. That shyt would be Warriors 2016. Games are over before the end of the 1st half. I don't like Mbappe with Naymar and Messi. I hate this shyt. I don't like how PSG does shyt. Mbappe is like LeBron or Curry. Build that shyt around Mbappe and have a supporting cast around him that makes sense. PSG be taking turns being heroes and that shyt looks stupid as the midfield ain't good enough and the defense is suspect in big matches. Put him on a stacked squad like prime Messi, not a super high-salary squad that doesn't make sense.

Just woke up. What a great final. France was on some bullshyt first half. Greizmann took the worst time to not show up. The last 50 minutes was unreal. Equivalent to a heavyweight boxing title bout where each fighter knocks each other down.

Mbappe was the star of the tournament. But Argentina as a whole executed better. I knew it was a wrap once they went into pk. France hasnt learned shyt from 06. Martinez was sensational for Argentina. But the way Mbappe took his shyt three straight in the same area was :wow:

Mbappe has been the best striker i have seen last 20 years in world cup play. It seems he needs to translate that more into league play whereas thats where Messi set his dominance.

I hope they can put aside their differences and get PSG a champions league title. Because Messi got his world cup. Now its for Killinem to get his Uefa.

You guys are trying to fight the river's flow. If Mbappe remains in Paris for the rest of his career - people will always question it. No one takes you seriously if the oppositon you're bodying is Angers, Ajaccio and Troyes on a week to week basis :yeshrug:

French and Eredivisie are leagues no one cares about. Even ballon d'or votes reflect this. ask Neymar how his year-on-year votes ratio has been since he made the jump to Paris. No amount of "nobody listens to retards" will change that. That shyt only sounds cool on thecoli.

Mbappe needs to move :yeshrug:


Irrelevant. Not too long ago, Serie A players were dominating the Ballon d'Or voting. Times changed and times will always change.

That's a good analogy but he kind of turned them down already to sign a new contract with PSG, hard to turn down that kind of money. The Real Madrid Staff, Players and Spanish newspaper were kind of clowning him when he made the decision, he seems like the type to not tolerate any disrespect. I'm wondering if he surprises everyone and goes to Barcelona (I know there finances are a mess).
Finances make it impossible. I hope he goes to Liverpool but it will be tough to leave PSG. They are paying him 91 mil a year.

Kante was important for sure, hell, they could have used him today if healthy but that team was built around Mbappe and he carried them after the group stages. Why underrate the breh? he's an one of a kind. They wasn't winning 70 without Pele.
france 2018 was just a very complete team. thats not the kind of team where their success is just one player carrying them. mbappe was a huge part of the success though he had a great cup

so in 1970 what team do you think beats brazil without pele? with jairzinho, rivellino, carlos alberto and all the other legends they aren't losing to peru or uruguay. italy would still be exhausted after the grueling semi with west germany so i think brazil wins the final again. maybe if england beat them in the group and they had to play west germany in the quarter final but i still think brazil would just have the best team
