The man is a machine. What can you say more?

 

[serghei]

showing more life than Messi it has to be said

Well, he went to the best league in the world and Messi went to retirement home Ligue 1. On top of that, he's scoring goals in EPL, while Messi is shit in Uber Eats League.

So far, Ronaldo wins.

 

[KingLeo10]

Mark my words, he's gonna win at least 1 more ballon d'or. Will hold the record as the oldest player to win it.

If Messi bottle this year's ballon d'or, Ronaldo will catch him.

Scored a good goal and an assist v Spurs...that doesn't put him in Ballon D'Or contention.

There's players like Lewa and Salah to worry about even if Messi is on the wane.

 

[DonAK]

He'll need to win either the PL or the CL and there's no way Man Utd are doing that.

 

[KingLeo10]

Opinions on him and Messi these days flip flop more than burgers at a McDonalds.

 

[serghei]

Neither is Ballon d'Or material anymore. It's all PR. Salah is better than both by a good margin. So are Lewandowski and Mbappe.

Mbappe is not on the level of the other two. Other two being Lewa and Salah.

He is better than Messi though and when you watch PSG it's evident. I agree, I'd say Salah is no1 atm, and Lewandowski close behind.

Why can't they win CL

I don't watch PSG outside of CL and he's not been all that in CL games. Better than Messi and Neymar yes, but he lacks a few fundamentals in his technique.

 

[pregra]

His first good game this season and people are off their tits immediately. In both CL games where he got a goal at the end, he was on Messis level yesterday ffs. Salah has been about 10 times as good so far this season. Cron nowhere near top 10 in the world this season.

This this and this. Benzema as well, miles better than CR this season. Same with feckin Vinicius ffs

EDIT: took a random look at Serie A top goalscorers. Just by having 8 & 9 goals respectively, even if they all might be tap ins, both Gio Simeone and Immobile are ahead by default.

Sure, normally he's nowhere near prime Messi or even prime Neymar, but with these slow and ponderous versions, he's better purely by speed and power. Technique wise, Mbappe is okay, but nothing special. As an athlete, he's impressive.

If thats your benchmark, then good luck, even prime Neymar is hard to replicate.

One can be impressed by players, without them being the best you've ever seen.

Yeah, once you don't force silly historical comparisons, yea, Mbappe is legit world-class player and top 5 in the world atm.
