Nah, not really. Being the best player in the world doesn't mean you are automatically making any team better. Zidane was the best player in the world at Juventus, and they got better after selling him
Kylian Mbappe | Merci.

No chance. Fine player but he’s no Mbappe.
Next season can't come soon enough.
Big game player:
He was crap in both games.
He really was
Yes he was
He was pretty terrible over both legs. Barcola and Dembele were both class tonight though.
He’ll tear it up at Madrid, no doubt, but over these two games he was rubbish. Annoying because on Paramount+ Micah Richard’s and co are going nuts about how he delivered when it mattered blah blah, ignoring the fact it was a penalty and he was otherwise gash.

He's mentally checked out surely? And hasn't Luis Enrique been giving him random minutes here and there as a form of punishment? He'll be class next season I'm sure.
I only watched the 2nd half but it felt like every cross Dembele put in was easily blocked.
The problem with stats and media hype. He was terrible in both games, scored 1 pen and a goal which he was gifted; suddenly he is the best.
Was a right shit in the first game too, fouling non-stop and moaning.
Gets to play semi-final, even though should have been out in the group stages already, sucks.
Yes, totally absent on the first one but at least he scored against Barcelona so I will cut him some slack just because of that.

He will push Rodrygo out of the team for good though, if he is actually coming, so not all upsides.
I think he just isn't a 9 against teams sitting deep, but Luis Enrique doesn't trust his forwards. Might have the same problem for Madrid, won't be shocked if he or Vini end up on the right with Bellingham behind I guess Endrick, or just Bellingham as a false 9 with Vini and Mbappe slightly wide of him on either side except for games where Madrid sits deep and plays on the counter.
The real question of this thread for me as a United fan is does his move mean we can - and should we - pay 80M or whatever for Rodrygo if Endrick passes him and makes him a backup and Madrid don't have injury issues. Garnacho looking about as good on the right as the left means it's not crazy.
We should ask about Rodrygo once Mbappe goes to Madrid.
De Jong 2.0
The "bpitw" thing is a mordern myth based mainly on the world cup. He hasn't consistently reached that level through the season. And the fact that he plays in the French league also goes against this claim.
Another big game, another non-entity...
*Ducks for cover*
*Ducks for cover*
Seems much more dangerous with France than with PSG
Confirming what we all knew.
Madrid are going to somehow get even better.
Finally!
Wearing red. Off to Liverpool.
Lets see if he can produce now going to bigger league.
Is producing at the world cup and champions league since he was 17 not evidence enough?
he'll score 30+ at Madrid easily7 years? Time flies. He's certainly done his bid. Time to go. Ridiculous if Real take him and disrupt Vinicius in any way, however.
I won't believe it until he's presented at another club. Last ditch effort by Sarkozy and the Qatari's could come in any minute.
Hopefully he doesn’t disrupt Vinicius but Mbappe will soon rather than later become their best player as he’s a level above anybody at Madrid.
Quelle surprise.

He definitely didn't score a hattrick in the World Cup Final......
Its gonna really bother me when that is talked about as some legendary individual game in 15 years time, he was an absolute ghost for 80 minutes. Fair play for sticking the pens though, especially to then stick one in the shootout after already taking two. That took a lot of balls.Hide

He will score enough, i'm sure, but there is just no need for him in the team, his role is already filled.
Commercial signing, first and foremost, Perez wants his galactico.
It's amazing and it's 6 years ago.Hide

Thoughts on the murmurs of him possibility affecting the vibes in the squad?
Liverpool it is? Good.
Is the transfer fee known? Or is this a free transfer?
On a free to Real
We're going to sign him because we're gluttons.
