Kylian Mbappé

[malvolio]

Ronaldo rarely comments on RM since leaving, didn't expect him to say anything.

Cunt couldn't stay away from the biggest transfer in years. Just to get some spotlight.

They were known as talents and sought after, but they were not bought as ready-made stars.
And it was far from certain if they would succeed or flop at a big club
All of the ones you mention

Totally different from buying ready-made stars in Zidane, R9, Becham, etc.
or Mbape in the modern era
The only ones where Flo departed from his strategy were Vinicius and Rodrygo

Depends on what you mean by "the modern era", outside Hazard, who less spoken about the better, Perez transfer policies are different than in the galactico-era.

With the signing of Mbappe though, Perez reverts back to the start, of going with marketability above all else.

Always with the insults regarding Ronaldo.

Well, no spotlight needed here, Mbappe's transfer isn't topping Ronaldo's transfer, nor impact at the club.

Will be interesting to see how the relationship between the Brazilians and Mbappe + French contingent unfolds.

Wouldn't surprise me to see Mbappe return to PSG at some point in his career.

I genuinely don't see him staying in La Liga past his 5 yr contract. Going to get another check from QSG is probably his plan but looks like Nasser and co aren't taking his departure well.

JUST IN: A source close to PSG believes that Mbappé “has absolutely no class” after his statements today. “Nasser Al-Khelaïfi never dictated the slightest decision to the team. Luis Enrique even said it himself but still, Mbappé says something and everyone prints as if it is the truth.”

Guys chilaxx. Cubarsi going to make him suck his fat dong like how he did for the PSG game. Mbappe gonna be our bitch so much so he would have hoped he should have gone to the actual Big Daddy club.

Gavi's already gearing up to show whos the boss. Bossman gonna take a fat dump on him.

He's an idiot full of himself that wanted a piece of the attention generated by Mbappe's transfer.

He doesn't give a shit about Madrid or Mbappe otherwise.

 

[fergus90]

In about two months you’re going to be saying Mbappe Madrid shirts every five minutes.

I see enough Bellingham Madrid tops as it is.

 

[Barcaman]

We don't need Mbappe, we have Mbappe at home.

 

[Messi983]

Glad this man finally got released from Qatari's golden prison.

Meh, couldn't care less.

Camavinga is not a starter whether its him or Tchouameni is a tossup. And competition there is good for both as things are.

Ancelotti hasnt played a congested midfield in 4 of 5 season he's been here + said many a time, even recently that he will adapt to player at disposal based on past experience with consequences of prioritising rigid structures

Right.
So, given the players at his disposal, he is never gonna drop either Camavinga or Tchouameni for Rodrygo.
Only in easy LL games you will see all three of Vini, Rodrygo, Mbape

Hazard, Mbape in recent times,
But you forgot CR7, Kaka, Benzema all being bought immediately after Perez got re-elected, and then Bale, JAmes. He continued this policy all that time, snatching what he considered galactico material

The only clever buys I have seen recently that differentiate the strategy are Cama, Tchou, Vinicius, Rodrygo,
and players like Theo Hernandez, Kovasic, which you spat out, despite turning WC elsewhere
I don't know who is behind this group of transfers, but Perez certainly isn't

 

[Birdy]

Romario came in his prime, was Brazil's best player, and was already proven in Europe. He was already a star and there was 0 doubts about him.
Ronaldinho was a world cup winner and universally acclaimed as the best 23 and under player in the world. He was as close to a sure thing as you can get. Same goes for Neymar and R9 who already got the keys to the Brazilian NT and were seen as inevitable greats. It's a bit silly to credit barça for "making" these players when they were signed for big money and their eventual success was never in question and would have happened anywhere.

You have a point for Romario. For the rest, not so much.
- Ronaldinho showed things in the WC 2002, but it was far from certain what he would become at a top team, because he wasn't playing for one. Contrary to Perez's buys like Becham, like Zidane, like R9, etc
- Neymar was one of the best Brazilian talents, but he has seen nothing of Europe, and his showing with Brazil pre-2013 proved jack-shit about his future trajectory
- Young R9 is even more crazy to mention, because he was so young when he joined us, had played only for PSV in Europe, and the notorious Atlanta 1996 displays came after he was transferred to Barca

You seem to suffer from the disease of retroactively projecting the future into the past, without realizing that when the past was present none of the future was already developed nor guaranteed

No basis for that. Camavinga is not getting in the team ahead of anyone but an injured midfielder or LB as things stand
Ancelotti used Rodrygo despite lukewarm performance and regardless of position.

He used Rodrygo because he needed at least one more attacker. Now Mbape takes this spot
Camavinga was not getting in because Kroos was also still around, practically 5 people for 4 positions.

I will end it here. It's pretty obvious what I am arguing

PSG fans in shambles as Mobutu said he felt like a caged toucan

midlife crisis Flo thinks he bought a Lambo but he bought a lemon

Tchou-Tchou will get derailed tryna track back for and fill the gaps
Cama will quit Footy 4 rugby
Valverde will say f'it n go on strike
Rodry will ask 4 a transfer if not given the minutes
Don Anchovies will get sued by PETA 4 trying to make Turtle run and will end up institutionalised in Vienna

Real lucky to finish 3rd in ll next season _ won't even reach the semis in the CL
not trollin, Fortune Stella just told me
