Never has a thread seen so much straw clutching to justify English failure.

Again.

Ah bit Messi...
Ah bit Mbappe...
Ah bit whoever...

Shame about the result but that team has talent and will hopefully win something.

Someone who isn't talked about a lot is Declan Rice. He's a mediocre player.

Imagine if someone would’ve doped maradona and pele with all the steroids and HGH that Messi got.

They’d be insane.

Messi is the first genetically modified footballer

Mbappe did claim 39 goals and 26 assists last season so he’s definitely up there by current standards. It would take a lot to match the heights of 24-28 yr old Messi but will be fun to see anyone try. Ideally he will do it in a league with a bit of competition.

Obviously Mbappe has shown he can do it at the highest level of football but producing stats from mainly the average French League doesn’t even come close to comparing him with Messi and Ronaldo.

I’m not sure there’s *that* much of a difference between playing up top for a Real Madrid or Barcelona hoovering up between 90 and 100 pts and progressing to at least the CL quarters every season or playing up top for a PSG hoovering up between 90 and 100 pts and progressing to at least the CL quarters every season.

The service Ronaldo was getting pretty much throughout his time at Real was ridiculous, and La Liga usually has its share of cannon fodder.

I’m not saying that there’s no difference between the leagues; there obviously is. But I think it’s overstated how difficult it may be to score goals for, for example, a Real Madrid that’s so far ahead of 16 or 17 other teams in La Liga.

Plus, if people need convincing of his ability to do it against bigger clubs, Mbappe’s CL record is ridiculous; better than two in three across his career.
