Mbappe is a great player, Haaland a great scorer.
Technically Haalend is quite limited, but a slightly better scorer.
I think Mbappe would do wonders playing for a team like Manchester City
Would he have the discipline to play for Man City? I'm not sure Pep would allow him to cheat off the ball the way his other teams have done.Mbappe is a great player, Haaland a great scorer.

Mbappe better than him in big games. But Mbappe's progress has stalled or actually started to regress.
Either way, both are pretenders compared to the GOAT and Golnaldo. Won't see either of these two dominate CL semis and finals like those 2 did.
His progress hasn't stalled lol. It's just not in the spotlight coz he plays in a joke league.
He has gradually improved his all round game since breaking out. Haaland hasn't and can't coz he's one of the most limited players of all time. Take away his pace and he has nothing left. He's a 6'4 tall guy who can't head the ball or hold up play. It's his pace, finishing and movement that's immaculate. He's the ultimate poacher. RVN on steroids basically (RVN had a tad more to his game).
It will be an absolute scandal if he wins the ballon Dor, and I say that as someone who loves this guy to bits.
Completely anonymous in both semi final games, the final, and the FA cup final. Meanwhile, Messi dragged his side by the bootlaces with goals against every team bar one in the World Cup.
Watching that and comparing it to how Messi played in CL finals in his prime. Completely different stratosphere of player honestly. Give him his 8th.
Who should win it in your opinion?So many great takes during the last couple of pages. And I agree with every one of them. How on Earth would any sane football fan consider this fella to be the best in the world, aka Ballondor winner?? A finisher. Thats where it starts and ends with this guy. Had Mario Gomez scored in that 2012 final against Chelsea, should he have won the Ballondor? He scored over 40 goals that season! Of course not.
