Everything about Mbappe screams a young Cristiano; Pacy wing forward with quick feet and an eye for goal, whilst everything Haaland screams Ronaldo in his late 20's and early 30's; powerful, ruthless, and clinical finisher who can score all types of goals in the penalty area. Whatever you choose to call it, Haaland and Mbappe idolize/model/play-like Ronaldo.

TLona1:
Right. It's impossible to see a next Messi.

I mean how will you have the record for most European Golden Shoes and at the same time most playmaker awards??

This Messi ehnnnnnnnnn...

pu7pl3:
Messi is not role model material, rest...

[s]You idolize who you can imitate. You can only worship the one whose standards are too high for you to achieve.


Close down spaces from Mbappe and prevent him from running and you'll see he's useless... This is exactly what Messi enjoyed most whilst he was young. That's not to say he can't punish you when you give him space. That's more like asking for death. [/s]


[s]For Haaland - Cut out his supply of thr ball from midfield and wingers and watch him become as useless as his Norway national team's version... With a younger Messi, there's the capacity to drop-deep and playmaker, dribble through and achieve solo goals or even initiate a brilliant assist. [/s]

[s]There are even more to these facts. But make time no day cos my break is over. [/s]

[s]Do you think it's a fluke that Messi's picture is a symbolic sign at Manchester United ( the first home of CR7)? This man has never played in England and has been responsible for most of Man Utd's humiliation in the UCL, yet his picture is placed there at Old Trafford's dressing room?

Or Should we talk about him being idolized at Allianz Arena's museum? [/s]


[s]There are levels to greatness and unless you've decided to be blind to it, Messi is in nobody's class not to talk of modeling him.[/s]

What happened to Messi in

-2012 Ucl against Chelsea when they parked the bus?

-2010 Ucl against inter when they parked the bus?

-2014 Ucl against atm when they parked the bus?


Mbappe is all of a sudden useless because he is about to become a Madrid player


Idolised at Allianz Arenz for what? Chopping 7-0 and 8-2?

Don't forget to add most consecutive international finals bottled. This Messi indeed.

Krasid:
Messi fans can gloat all they want, truth is Ronaldo has performed beyond expectations in this EURO. Nobody expected Portugal to go far considering their group plus no one expected them to defend the title . 5 goals and 1 assist later in 4 games(not forgetting the countless records broken), I can say he has done well. Plus he now has goals against France and Germany to boost his ever increasing CV(if you like cry from now to thy kingdom come that they were penalties and tap ins, nobody cares). 2 international titles with Portugal is more than impressive!

As for the Argentine international flop who at this age should be having at least 2 copa america titles gunning for a third (considering the ridiculous amount of times the tournament has been held in the last decade), we will be waiting to drag him like tiger gen should he fail to do the needful.

You never still recover from your fantasy

FirstbornWds:
Belgium extends warmest regards.

Kilishihunter:
And next time when you are busy singing the national anthem of him costing his team, don't forget to add that only him scored his own penalty in the 2015 shootout while his remaining teammates missed

Let the fools do it nau why has t anyone become him yet?

SonOfAfonja:
Very true...Ali Daei, Sunil Chetri, Josef Bican and so on

Lukaku,Kane, Lewandoski help me out

FirstbornWds:
About to be a Madrid player? Lol. With mouth abi wetin. Just so you know... I have nothing against him. He's a great guy and has the potentials of remaining a legend. But I said what I said and every reasonable football fan that knows how to watch football would know there's no falsehood in what I said.

Mbappe is a kind of player that loves to explore on space to thrive. And except you want to be biased, he's nowhere close to Messi at that age. Space or no space... Messi was a beast at 20, 21 and 22.

And for the instances you mentioned; let me use the instance of Inter as a perfect example. Messi was man-marked by not just one or two inter players. Still, he still had a good performance that day even though he lost.. Little wonder why he still went ahead to win the balloon d'or that year? His individual brightness was not unnoticed and good enough, Fifa wasn't blind to it.


Well, you can as well go and read articles about the idolization of Messi in Bayern and realize that he was given that mantle when he broke Gerd Muller's record.


And for Manchester... Well, that one tells you how much impact greatness can have even when it involves your worst adversaries.

Krasid:
Do Daei, Chetri, Lukaku, Kane etc have 2 international trophies along with the record of being the all time top scorer of the 2nd greatest national competition in world football.
You should place Messi there as he shares similarities of not winning diddly squat with his national team with the aforementioned players.
Know your level boy.

SonOfAfonja:
Olivier Giroud, Thomas Muller and Miroslav Klose have World Cup medals, who are they in the footballing world?

ddippset:
Played close to 20 years of international football.

Played close to 10 international tournaments.


Never been MVP the best player at any competition.

This kind of goat is only good for pepper soup.

Carried by team mates and flopped in all the biggest games that "matter"

They will later coman tell us he won 2 trophies.



Tufiakwa

Krasid:
Are they the greatest in football's biggest club competition and 2nd biggest national competition? Do they have trophies and records scattered across Europe top 3 leagues to add to their national title?

I would have asked you to place them with your Argentine national team flop but seeing that they have titles with their NT, you can go back to comparing your NT flop with Lukaku, Kane and Daei.

There are levels to this GOAT shit.

TheHulk616:
Shameless Messi fans.

Goat Ronaldo with 2 international trophies
Messi with 0 international trophies.

jpmoriarti:
Ronaldo is like a more consistent Zlatan Ibrahimovic to me. If Zlatan had been more focused, nothing will separate him from Ronaldo in terms of individual achievements.

Kilishihunter:
Wtf is this niccur saying? Many tipped Portugal alongside France and Italy to win this competition not forgetting the fact that that their squad was far superior than the one that won in France in 2016 This excuse is too weak, if we talk about commebol's shit now that's when attacks would start flying in
