He's making the step up from an already successful couple of seasons (I don't care for cost of players these days because it's so extortionate) to the national side. I couldn't be happier for him True. how good he is especially for someone so young. How about being the best player in a match that has both Messi and Pogba.

Panflute Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Mbappé had one of the best individual performances in a World Cup 2018 match so far. I'd only rate Ronaldo's performance against Spain higher than his. What a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That man has the golden touch (albeit not having a good game but he scores when required) There have been quite a few like these. The one you mentioned. Portugal never lost when Ronaldo scored twice which almost happend against Spain. Denmrak never lost when Eriksen scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nachoesque, like Kowabunga said, but better because that effect on the ball.....superb. The score suggests a close game, but it really wasn't. France was always in the front seat, for most of the game. Underlooked right backs think alike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Profesor Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 29 minutes ago, Kowabunga said: That talent wise France is a vastly better team right now, is hardly debatable. But debating the forwards aside from Messi is a moot point: in Argentina everyone but the forwards (and maybe Otamendi, although he is no Ayala), are mediocre players. Agree. There is an abyss between France and Argentina in terms of individual talent. This is quite sad and it´s a reflection of the poor state of AFA and the work of development of young players. This is not about Messi. Argentinians should take a hard look at the mirror and realize they´ve fallen behind. For example this was France´s bench today: Mandanda, Aréola, Sidibé, Kimpembe, Rami, Mendy, Tolisso, N´Zonzi, Lemar, Fékir, Thauvin, Dembélé. How many of those players would walk into Argentina´s starting XI? I count at least 8 players that were in the bench for France today that would start for Argentina. This is quite bad. Argentina is a great football nation, not only because of their history, but also because the culture and passion for football that country has.

Messi's biggest fuck up was rejecting Spain for Argentina.... i can't wholly blame Messi for this loss --- everyone in the team has failed. But still, i can't help but to ask myself -- where is the Messi we all see in Barcelona ??. where is that talk that all the plays START from Messi ???. oh well, he is still a GOAT, but like i said, but as a player for barcelona .....

By the way, what do you think of the rumors that Cholo could take over Argentina and coach Atleti and Argentina at the same time? I would prefer not to experiment the year the UCL final is being played at the so-called "Wanda". In any case, Simeone is not going to be at Atlético forever, and at some point, it may be enticed to stay with that kind of strange propositions. It may have a slight chance for it to work with the club having a core of argentinian players, which is not currently the case for Atlético. If he had to share duties, I would prefer Simeone to coach Uruguay, to be fair. Most important about Argentina now, I think Messi going is probably gone for good from the NT.
