If mbappe win the World Cup they should give him ballon d’or. No one does it more than him in World Cup since 2018. No one deserves it more than him. Europe top score and World Cup winner it’s enough

Mbappe is going to win 3 or 4 World Cups and go down as the greatest ever player. He will play in another 3 or 4 World Cup tournaments. He is going to win 5 or 6 Ballon Dors

when you say that your wife is the most beautiful person in the whole world, have you ever heard us complain? so if I say CR7 is better than Messi, it's my opinion and I'm entitled to it.

Mbappe is a phenomenal goal scorer (goal machine, if you want) but no matter how many goals he scores, and no matter how many records he shatters, he can never come close to Messi in terms of football skills, dribbling, playmaking, assisting, game reading and scanning etc.
