Mbappe to Real Madrid - Official

I was skeptical about shoehorning Mbappé into a starting lineup with Vini since they essentially play the same position, but this is worse than I though. His presence is also negatively affecting Bellingham and Valverde. This one transfer has derailed the great momentum from last year. This is such an old school Florentino galactico signing. He fixated on getting Mbappé and ultimately got him with no regards to what the squad actually needs. Shades of signing Beckham when you already had Figo and have just lost your starting defensive midfielder.

There are no easy solutions here, Vini isn't gonna be moved from the left and Mbappé isn't likely to turn into a world class 9.

The biggest problem right now isn't even that he plays n9. The guy can't beat a man, can't create chances, can't shoot, takes double digit shots every game, has Lukaku's first touch, doesn't lift a finger to help in the press and drifts in and out of games. You could literally replace him with Rashford and you wouldn't see the difference.

We were told that he'd be better than Messi/Ronaldo but the French league could be deceiving.

I get that this is probably not his actual level but I have been very dissapointed with him so far. Thought he'd be far better than this

Won't be long until the SB turns on him

Even semi-retired Messi pressed more. This shit is unprecedented

It's honestly ridiculous. Messi got away with it at times, but he also had an entire system built around making up for it. RM don't have that luxury, not like Vini and Jude are going to step up for him.

Carlo's problem to solve.

Messi did some pressing in his prime though. Like he wasn't a liability til like 2014ish??

Mbappe makes old Messi look like prime Baresi. Last season in PSG Messi had 30 tackles to Mbappes 10, this season Messi had 15 tackles in 19 games to Mbappes 1 in 10.

Dropped for the November friendlies

Saving his energy for another run of stinkers, legend

I was quite certain he’d not be Hazard 2.0 but now I’m not sure.

He'll never be Hazard of course. That lazy guy didn't even play a single Clasico for nearly the entirety of his RM career. At least Mbappe is there to face the music even if his attitude stinks
