    They surpassed them all though, so even mentioning both Messi and Ronaldo is a huge stretch. They are arguably the two best players since Maradona and Pele.

    Saying you want to follow Ronaldo is like saying you want to follow Lebron's path or Federer's.

    Ok and what does eventually surpassing them have to do with them aspiring to be them at an early stage in their career?

    Its odd how precise Mbappé talks about the situation like "now I can't be like Messi I have to be like Ronaldo", like its a matter of choice.

    The highest probability is he's going to be neither of them.i find it odd how he inserts himself in that discussion. It's more than just "good players that I like".

    Didn't the forum agree that Odriozola is terrible the other day?

    We're increasing his value, and his chances to make the national team, hence improving his value even more. What good is he on our bench if we plan to move him in the summer?

    We're basically holding up a sign saying "Bayern/Real Madrid fullback for sale", while people here believed he'd only be interesting for FC Ürdingen or something.

    Bayern are basically describing him as an exceptional talent. That's the advertisement I want for a player that is looking at a career away from Madrid.

    Carvajal can chill. No problem with anyone taking his spot this season.

    Nacho certainly will not.

    Odriozola has appeared in 5 of a possible 28 games for us this season and none since October. Certainly that’s a workload Militao or Nacho can handle

    Great move to leave us short towards the back-end of the season. Great job, well done the club.

    Odri was behind Nacho and Militao for ZZ after Mallorca game. Think we are fine with Militao who have CL experience at that position and can deal with the loss of someone who was getting left out for months. [emoji6] Odri wasn't delivering on either ends. At least Nacho is a reliable FB on defensive end. He started against Valencia at LB when Mendy and Marcelo were out.

    The highest probability is that a journalist asked him a question framing it around Ronaldo and Messi to get clicks, and he responded to that. You’ve then highly probably extrapolated that to infer that he has Ronaldo and Messi on the brain all day every day.

    Of course I could be wrong and he could have just raised those two names out of thin air himself, but I doubt it.

    Ronaldo means more to football than Lebron means to basketball.

    If you’re mentioning basketball greatness please reference Michael Jordan.

    Dude, you're here keeping score over who's right and wrong and how many times. You practically live here. There's people in the football world being wrong or right every day and your contribution is being Youngstars and being right all the time but not seeing shit for it.

    Incredible.

    Got some mod envy out as well. As if it matters at all.

    Him making the national team or getting good performances vs terrible German teams is more to my liking than him performing terribly for us and having no interest for him in the market.

    I'd rather see nacho out there.

    Possibly, that assumes nacho is healthy and filling in for a cb who's injured. I get that it's a stretch but that precisely how injuries work at this club. My preference is to wait till summer and approach this from a proper planning perspective but I understand why others feel differently.

    Lol didn't this dude just bring up my Obi Mikel and messi Olympic performance analysis from over a decade ago?

    That isn't "keeping score"? Can you go two post without contradictions?

    Stop projecting and take a xanax or something.

    Yeah I mean if the Plague befalls the team we'll be in real trouble but I am a fan of saying goodbye to players the coach doesn't want to work with.
