@SarahAnnRhoades@neontaster Yes, so much feminism. Not a single time during those 3 hours that 2 female characters have a meaningful conversation. All female characters depend on males. It's so woke and feminist๐คก
@kisame_neji@LEC@Perkz@G2League To please the fans? Are you drunk? There wasn't even a public sentiment for Perkz to take over as head coach. The team obviously wanted that.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin You are insanely delusional. MBappe has better statistics offensively and defensively. Give me just any relevant stats that support Messi. Thankies.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin By which metric did he have the best attacking presence? I just listed several attacking statistics - all of which in favour of Mbappe.
Besides: Messi almost exclusively played against fodder teams. Your "I don't even support Messi" in the beginning was a blatant lie with all
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin I just gave you several statistics in which Mbappe was superior. MBappe was superior in almost every measurable facet. Messi has won the balloon d'Or on several occasions where he wasn't the best player of the year - getting a fraudulent silver ball is no surprise.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin Playing with Messi in the finals was literally like being one man down. MBappe was better this tournament, but not the best performing.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin Idk what media you're consuming, but I ve heard no credible outlet going for Messi here. Especially after that final. Argentina playing with 10 men. If Messi doesn't have his moments of brilliance it really is like you're playing with one man down, cause he goes for no runs atall
@Meursaulttte@Gumba94@Thorin MBappe has higher xG, xG efficiency, more goals, same assists, more shots in targets, more shots in general.
MBappe has been better. Stop being that fraudulent.
@Meursaulttte@Gumba94@Thorin But wait, you're just lying. MBappe has 169 applied pressure on defenses while Messi has 147. Messi did not contribute more for overall defense, which was shown in the final today as well. They both don't work well defensively, but Messi does even less than Mbappe. Besides,
@Gumba94@Thorin You are not capable of engaging the point. You keep going on about who the better player is - but it's not about that. It's about their performance during this WC and Mbappe simply has been better. Supported by the rankings and statistics.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin He definitely will go down as the best goal scorer barring a serious injury in the near future. I'm not even that fond of Mbappe, as he is great on the ball but I despise his attitude off the ball. But I simply favour Mbappe this WC. But let's see, what happens later today.
@Gumba94@Thorin Mate cause it's pointless. You cannot differentiate between the most basic terms of the English language. I gave you examples of the most objective analytics we have that have seen Mbappe in front. Just Google them, twat.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin I'm just of the opinion that while Messi was definitely one of the best performing players this WC, he just simply hasn't been the best and he has not been better than Mbappe. Messi is hella impressive for being that effective at 39 - but he is not Mbappe at this current point.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin Performance does not only entail goal scoring ability, I absolutely agree. I heavily deduct points from Mbappe for his defensive prowess and pressuring of defensive lines. But his dribbling has been otherworldly this WC. Every time he has the ball it feels like he can create.
@Gumba94@Thorin I will spell it out for: being better in a WC does not equal better footballer. Even though I would argue that 27 year old Mbappe is better than 39 year old Messi at these specific points in their career. But that it a different topic altogether.
@smileypremier@PlutoPlanet0101@Thorin He was the best performer in a decently poor side for a lot of their games, yes. He's worked the least defensively, aside from Ronaldo and he has been invisible for huge portions of the marches whereas Mbappe has been dangerous throughout every stretch of every match beside semis
