FACTS

Nostalgia people will never admit some new generational are better and have surpassed their demigods

Godx:
He didn't tell you Mbappe was more talented than Delima. Being more talented and being the better player are two different things. Delima entire reputation is hinged on his world cup performances and Mbappe is already on par with him if not even better in that regard.

He is Italian

popizaino:
I am sold on any player from Argentina.

Unrelated, but what point in time can be referred to indomie generation?

The context of the Indomie is about the group that consumes it, and not about the age of the product.

Indomie is usually for children, so that's why any shade to someone who's young is usually categorized as "Indomie"

fredoooooo:
Fuel price reduce globally . Still same in Naija ?

yes oh
Tinubu and dangote don carry us handicap

It just statement they use here to insult someone beating their argument as little kid while Dem be adult that witness it all.

FACTS

Nostalgia people will never admit some new generational are better and have surpassed their demigods

these arguments are funny
Mbappe and his people are getting these stats now because the game has gone soft and na fraudsters Dey play ball now.

You can’t compare the kind of defenders,,goal keepers we have then to these yahoo boys…

Football then was war!!
It was a do or die affair….not what they are playing now
Most of these new players will be going on injury every week if the game intensity was the same

michigang:
That is why i will never rate cr7 as goat cos he added no value to football aside from scoring selfish goals. Football is all about exciting your fans with your god given talents and leaving a lasting impression behind

When did you start watching CR7? If you watched him in his early days in Sporting Lisbon, Manu and Real Madrid, you won't spill this out.

Trevor012:
Who dash fake, fat and amputated Ronaldo two league titles

La Liga is the league that made your man a global superstar and the league where he spent the majority of his career. So, how many League titles did he win there also?

popizaino:
Last i checked he was the minister of petroleum resources.

Minister of petroleum doesnt decide cost of a barrel of oil

The greatest of all time won 8 league titles and dominated 4 different leagues.

Longevity

Mbappe already played 2 world cup finals same with R9 and can potentially play 2 more

While R9 was way more talented, his body broke earlier in life

Longevity is where Messi and CR7 beats many of these older players. Messi is 39 CR7 is 41. At those ages most of the older generations superstars have long forgotten football and looked like Mr Ibu

Ronaldinho was elite for less than 5 seasons

Longevity is not beans. It’s the most important factor in this GOAT debate.

Is it easy to be at the top for 20 years? These guys must have sacrificed everything(family, fun, alcohol, pastries, soda, etc) to be in tip-top shape so they can continue to deliver on the pitch.

Look at Rooney’s shape. He’s 9 months younger than Cristiano.

fredoooooo:

Nigeria is an entity you can't explain and understand. They were quick to attribute the hike in price to the war but reluctant to reduce the price after the war.

If na Ronaldo talk this one Beelzebub fans for don scatter everywhere

Godx:
Baba he didn't win a league title until he was 26. He only won two league titles and around five major club trophies throughout his entire career. Without his World Cup title and the performances that came with it his standing in football history would below that of Ronaldinho, Zidane and others. The foundation of his GOAT level reputation is overwhelmingly built on what he achieved and how he performed on the World Cup stage. How exactly is this controversial or even debatable.

Nobody gave any attention to winning trophies over individual performance in the 90s.

R9 was phenomenal.

This was R9 casually dropping prime CR7/LM10 numbers at the age of 20 in La Liga.

47 goals, 13 assists in 49 apps.

Mbappe would tear both ACLs to achieve this.

Trevor012:

You just answered a question that nobody asked. I asked how many La Liga titles he won, and your response was "8 league titles in four different leagues."
That's like asking for someone's score in Mathematics and being told their total score across all subjects. Stay within the question asked, biko

airmark:
So, Kane was only useful for your Bayern because Olise and Diaz were useless, right? Nonsense talk as usual.

Your footie knowledge is not higher than Lordfalcao's, the lowest here.

Olodo core. Everything about your footie knowledge can be written on a grain of rice

PSG, Madrid, Argentina and France have all proven a #9 is optional

You are asking a foolish question that I don't care about. Fat and fake Ronaldo won only one league title in his entire career. See the difference, entire freaking career.

Are you being funny or what? That Mbappe will tear acl to drop that number or what?

Na so

Even some the goal keepers and defenders of those days were mid

Players were spamming goals from outside the box

Defenders would afford attackers space to dribble you 100 times


Only few we rugged and it's was mostly unnecessary and dangerous tackles that the players gets sent off or carded for

Canada escape dat

You can't use stats favorably to win a R9 vs Mbappe argument cos Mbappe has had numerous 30+ goals seasons and multiple 40+ goals seasons since he started his career; he even had a 70+ G+A season in 2021/22. So stat-wise, Mbappe beats R9 for sure and he is still 27 years, with maybe at least 5-6 more top-level seasons to come.

You can use maybe "eye test", "aura", "football being easier now" points, but going with stats (and achievements), the earlier argument of Mbappe >> R9, Henry, Ronaldinho is valid. Like you can project Mbappe to end his career with almost 30 World Cup goals if he plays 2 more tournaments, and such predictions would seem realistic.

He missed dat 1 v 1
Good job gk

No allow them Whyne you. Everybody is World-class and Messi and Ronaldo level.

There are no average, mid or garbage players. Nostalgia people won't kill me

I watch Maradonna road to 1990 world cup final, if you see the kind shot these people dey shot from impossible angle, so may over the ball, out of target shot, everybody just de shoot the goal. Nonsense matches everywhere

Mbappe doesn’t beat R9 in anything.

Mbappe hasn’t even won the CL in this era and he’s already 27. Mbappe benefits from a nationality lottery of being born in France.

If he was born in Yaoundé, I doubt he would have played in any WC, let alone win one. The only reason you people rate Mbappe is because of his nationality - which is just a lottery.

Where a pregnant woman decides to have a baby boy should not determine greatness. I don’t really rate all these national team competitions. It’s a farce. The World Cup is almost 100 years of age and ONLY 8 countries have won it.

Long story short, you have to be born in a footballing powerhouse country to be able to win the World Cup. If Pele(as talented as he is) was born in India, he would never have gone to a World Cup, never mind winning one.

Can you tell me the name of the previous Pichichi winner before this Ronaldo season, the amount of goals he scored and the club he played for?

R9 never won a UCL, and he still gets mentioned in the GOAT debate. CR7 only had 1 UCL and 1 Balon d'Or until he was 28yo. There is enough time for a 27yo Mbappe to do more and extend his legacy for sure. But even as of today, he has done enough to sit among the legends of the 1990s and 2000s era.

Antonio Pizzi of Tenerife. He was 27.

Ronaldo was 20.

TWENTY!!!!!

So a nobody like Antonio Pizzi playing for Tenerife scored 31league goals just one year prior to Ronaldo scoring 34 yet somehow Mbappe would tear Acl to score similar numbers in that Era. It's all good bro.

Only league champions qualified for UCL in that era.

If that same rule applies now, Arsenal will be playing CL for the first time in 22 years(next season).

30 years later, kids would go on the internet and type “Bukayo Saka is an awful player, he only has 3 goals in the CL.”
