Kylian Mbappé

Not my problem that this is the parallel you draw in your head.

And its also not my problem that you dont know the definiton of excellent performances

,,generational player "



only generational thing about him is him having a great game against a top team every generation

what's his career defining performance up until now? that match against a shitty argentina? something from his monaco days?

no surprise wolfe is trying to hype him up, since real might transfer him. he still tries to sell us braithwaite as being a good player.

Just wondering if you have an unlimited budget and want to have a sporting plan for the next 5 years who are you signing at RW. Mbappe or Sancho would be my guess but even then Mbappe is ahead of Sancho in a few ways and in what he's achieved individually as well as collectively.

Do define.
Would be nice if you defined something instead of me doing all the hard work for you.

something from his monaco days?

You say that as if they should for some reason be disqualified.

he still tries to sell us braithwaite as being a good player.

And you still seem to not understand the point of that conversation, unlike most others who were spectating and contributing. Happy to explain it to you again if you like in the relevant thread.

A performance for a offense player can defined with goals, assists, space creating dribbles / passes, chances creating. A excellent should have many actions of these categories and only a few bad moments. If we look at Manu away, he scored one goal (tap-in), missed 3 good opportunities, 0 created chances, 2 dribblings.I dont know what you are seeing or what you WANT to see more but the performance from him was pretty average. Angel Di Maria was rocking the show.

'Many' precisely defined

He didn't miss 3 good opportunities. One chance with 41% xG (the header) saved by De Gea, one chip (20% xG) also well saved.
Define dribble. In that video alone he had more than 2 dribbles reported by whoscored, not to mention the rest of the game. Same thing with created chances - can perfectly well create chances without the ball at your feet.
Scoring a tap-in doesn't make it the chance any worse, especially considering the run he needs to make. Done very very well to get there in between 2 defenders.

Excellent performance, high accuracy (something to the contrary of what you claimed) and decisive.

If you dont score, it is a miss. It were good saves from De gea but they were also good opportunities to score, thats why it wasnt an excellent performance lol. 2 successfull dribbles. Yeah of course you can create without touching the ball but did Mbappe do it ? No.

im sure for 99,999999% of people this performance from him was average but if you think this was excellene its ok.

Missing 2 chances, especially relatively low quality, doesn't make it any less of a performance.

Had more than 2 successful dribbles as you can see in the video.

Didn't he? Aside the ones he has missed (which are also chances created), he made the one where Di Maria got in the way and got called for offside (2:45) and one for Bernat in the 2nd half (5:48).

How many more do you reckon you've missed?

 

[Laplacian]

Sell Griezmann, sell Coutinho. Get the mf on a free and place him on the LW. Then get Haaland the following year. BRO.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

2 goals - good finishing today but couldnt beat his defender.

 

[Katarina1]

forum de amigos wanted Dembele instead of him lmao

 

[Laplacian]

Who cares, Mbappe LW and Dembele RW.

 

[CatalinR10]

forum de amigos wanted Dembele instead of him lmao

good job to the french Malcom for scoring 2 goals against a mediocre french team . Didn't they almost go down to 2nd league last year or 2 years ago ?


Only reason Dembele didn't work as expected so far are his injuries.


If he was healthy , we would've been trebble winners 2 times.



But it's no big deal because decade of dominance already started.

I think this is the only point in history that scoring is seen as a negative.

If you cant dribble 4 players, play one-twos and then chip the keeper, you are not "special", apparently.

Cesc Fabregas teaching this pretender how to score the winning goal.
