This could help him change his attitude, I hope he evolves. Well I hope so because in terms of technical ability & flair he's there or thereabouts the best around. Imagine a more determined, stronger, version of him that plays more for the team. Unplayabale.

The guy in Yellow is Neymar (Brazilian player) that is known for over-over exaggerating fouls. He is edited in the gif at the place of the ball during the football match (soccer in your native tongue) of France vs Argentina. Hope you understand

He's also known for having his socks torn open at the end of a game. As much as he simulates, defenders stick in to the tackle and make sure it counts, and by counts I mean not just going for the ball. Not really an excuse for simulation, it's such a stain on a beautiful sport. That said, a lot of people think he is weak, which is debatable.

What Ronaldo? Because Brazilian Ronaldo was insane in his youth even compared to Mbappe. But they do potentially have a similar skill set. I’m not convinced that Mbappe has the same finishing talent but he has the elite speed.

How would you judge Pogba, if his objective is to get Mou out and then perform under a new manager, possibly Zidane or Mauricio Pochettino?

Mourinho needs to do what Pep did to Yaya Toure when he and agent were talking about Pep in the papers. Bench him and put him in his place until they realise who's running the show. That's exactly what Pep did and boy did it work!

He has been quite sppedy for a while, but I never watch psg or ligue 1 so I haven't really gotten a good look at him before this cup. At 19 y/o I really think he'll become one if the best of this generation, moreso than I ever thought of Pogba or balotelli

Neymar rolling on the ground after pretending to suffer a foul is being edited into some gifs where he is shown to roll indefinitely. Here he is the ball in the possession of Mbappé. I would love to see him as the ball in the Pavard goal, only starting to roll after Pavard touches it.

Hope Jose benches him and Pogba ends up playing in the reserves until January. Then sell him to the highest bidder! Sir Alex got it right first time about Pogba and his agent!
