UEFA Champions League

I don’t jude merely on form, something like a top five would be changing every week.

An appreciation of player has to involve ranking and subsequent debate over the ranking.

It is known.

Definitely agree with @Titou14 that Mbappé is top 5 in the world already. The boy has everything, he’s ridiculously good. Nothing is going to change him being top 5 except serious injuries so I see no point in this ‘he has to prove it more’ stuff, that’s just rolling out cliches for the sake of it.

I do wonder if he made the right choice in going to PSG with Neymar, though. He might already be the better player–and that’s not a slight on Neymar–and if he isn’t it’s probable he’ll surpass him in the coming years. He deserves a team that plays for him, and–not that Bale is his level of talent–I worry him running into some of the problems that Bale did at Madrid with Ronaldo’s/Neymar’s personality in the team being a bit too big for him to really express his talent, especially if part of Neymar’s reason to move to PSG was to step out of Messi’s shadow.

City might’ve been a better choice for him. Worry that PSG won’t let him go in a couple years either, to have a team play for him.

My top 5 would be:

Messi
Neymar
Mbappé
Kroos
Hazard

He did say you don’t have to agree with him :wink:.

Fingers crossed this is exactly what happens and he can sign for he club he should have done this summer just gone

P.S.G.
The english teams bar Liverpool

That’s my favourites atm.

You have the English teams bar Liverpool more of a favourite than Real Madrid ?

Yes, atm. Real are still a bit suspected.

We will have to disagree then, if winning 3-1 in Dortmund is suspect them I’m sure they can live with that kind of suspect.

Pretty sure he said the same thing in September when they last won the CL :mustafi:

Also said Bayern wasn’t much chop before they beat us 10-2 on agg

What a porking disaster that prediction turned out to be.

It’s a shame that City v Napoli and Real Madrid v Spurs are on at the same time. They look to be the pick of this game week.

City and Napoli are the best two attacking forces in Europe at the moment - just hope they don’t equal each other out leading to the game finishing 0-0 :laughing:

Napoli vs City will likely trump all tonight I think. Even if the Royal vs Spuds is a tasty affair. Napoli just look so good on the ball, dealing with Pep’s direct approach will make for the better game.

Napoli City will be incredible tonight. Looking forward to it!

Same as that, havn’t looked forward to a game this much since :thinking: Sunday when Setien was up against Marcelino lol.

City vs Napoli’s ona whole another level though. Pep vs Sarri, hands down the best managers in Europe (for me) going head to head

Potentially football porn at its purist :giroud:

Ah remember the days where we’d be heading to some place like Madrid on a Tuesday night & The spurs would be heading all the way out to Serbia on a Thursday night.

Pep vs Sarri for me. Gonna be amazing!
