keep hearing how Mbappe is a superstar but I'm yet to see it when it matters, not convinced by Ligue Un performances either
It is an outrageous claim even more outrageous is the notion that Mbappé has done nothing outside of Ligue 1.

Probably the best player in Europe
No other blends the same degree of physicality and technique, mentality also on spot.

Whoa, that’s a bit much! Look we are all surprised and impressed with his breakout play this year. He is good, very good.
But to be considered the best he needs to prove that over a sustained period.
Mbappe has been performing and delivering over. 3 year period. Haaland over 1 1/2 years. Vinicius has been performing well for 4 months!
And to lump mentality in there!, when we were all critical of his lack of futbol brain just months ago!
The mentality comment, at this point still rests with Rodrygo, definitely the smarter player at this point. I’m still hopefully, Rodrygo can get a breakout season as well, (also proving that Flo was right with his South American talent signings) as he was rated the better of the two when they were still in Brasil. However the issue will be, he won’t be getting much playing time next season if the Mbappe / Haaland signings come to fruitition.

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
I am wondering about Flo’s signing strategies. I still believe his intent is to signing one of Mbappe or Haaland. The interest is there in both, but I suspect that both signings are difficult and that the strategy is to bid for both hoping to catch one! However an article today says he plans to sign both (despite the issues of playing both plus Benzema and Vinicius).
And if we look at Vinicius / Rodrygo, i believe the strategy was to sign both, hoping one of them would develop.
So if this is a strategy, what happens when both come to fruition?

What is it with RM fans always thinking they must have the best player in the world
First they tried to push Benz on us, now Vini?

Same reason Barcelona fans used to push every decent youngster as being the next best thing: we just wanna be loved

Valk might be a bit overboard but it is undisputed he's a top player this season.

'Top player' they said
just because he can dribble pig farmers from Alicante doesn't actually mean he's acquired a head to fit his chicken rump
goes to show what low quality La Liga has become

I don't even rate favela kid but Hans is acting over the top as usual.
If this was some Bundesfodders numpty he would be bigging him up til the end of time.
Business as usual tbh.

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
He has started to dive alot more nowadays and spends 5 mins after every tackle moaning to the refs. Wish we had Ramos who could clip him round the ears. He makes the wrong decision there and tries to conceal it with a dive. Infuriating!
He gets worked up easily. When he gets taunted it throws him off his game
Barca had him on lock last night. One of the worst games I've seen him play since our draw against Villarreal at the start of the season. But then again the tactics against us are so easy, double team Vini and let Rodrygo/Asensio create. Works everytime. Without Benz Vini is half a player because when you look at all Vini's goals nearly 90% involves Benz
I was impressed with Dembele but he is obviously playing for a big fat signing bonus because he'll never defend like he did last night ever
Oh and Barca players being classless as usual, first win in 6 games and you have players like Garcia taunting Vini about winning Balon d'or.

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
Felt alittle bit sorry for him yesterday. He was absolutely deserted up there on his own teying to go solo everytime he had the ball. I am happy we played at home and not away because the fans would've been brutal against him

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
He went one on one with Ter Stegen and chose to dive instead of shoot. Also earlier in the match, Modric was open and he shot straight at Ter Stegen instead of passing. He had a terrible game.

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
I think the dive came after. He actually straight up stumbled on the ball and decided after such tomfoolery, it would be of his best interest to play act.
This is where you need a Roy Keane type of captain to settle matters like that.

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
I'm pretty sure he didn't dive at all or at least not as much as now back then. Really don't know why he decided to do so.
This dive was pretty pathetic. Something you'd see out of the likes of Luis Suarez.
Well anyway, Vini just isn't going to be "the guy" at Real. He can take a supporting role next year.

Make a new bet for next season, 20 goals and you'll do a Vini haircut

Guti: "Vinicius cares more about the referee and rivals than about playing football"
the way he got furious after that embarrassing dive was even more ridiculous than the dive itself tbh
Madrid don't seem to have a captain/leader right now to set Vini straight

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
His quote is true tbh and it's irritating
He does get ignored by the referee alot tbh but man his moaning and dives have gone overboard
All that's left is him rolling 5 meters and his transformation into Neymar would be complete
Seems like Carlo can't get through to him. He has been told to simmer down by Carlo alot during games. Mostly he's gotten the last laugh but man as a Madrid fan i hate to see shit like that

These sort of things need balance. While he might be diving more, he's also getting a lot more fouls that don't get blown. For every diver, there are as many reckless/dirty tacklers

Bit harsh, how old is he still? His immense improvement this season deserves the highest praise. Pretty sure he will mature n be fine... Mbappe will be the main man anyway, so I guess him being no.2 even after Benzema retires eventually will be just right

Surprising to see Haaland that high, considering his injury woes since last fall. Not surprising to not see Eden Hazard on there

Re: Vinicius Jr signs for Madrid
But he is another player who's struggled with injuries in the same period If he'd been U21, he'd probably be near the bottom of the list with 1 goal and (2 assists) in all comps this season.
