    So the player with the most minutes played every season should be given the award?

    I could also argue back Mbappe was stuck playing ST the whole season.

    Kind of dense but I'll try to help you. Usually the GK has the most minutes and while GK are very important and difficult position to play they don't usually win individual awards because the skill set required to play is completely different from other players.

    Mbappe has played as a striker at PSG and for France, it's not his first time and being the player closest to goal makes it much more likely that he will score goals.

    Fed is incredibly versatile and can switch positions seemlessly as he showed again this season playing RB after also playing DM, winger and forward. Total footballer. I bet we could play him at striker, give him PK/FK and he could end up the teams top scorer. But he's also an unselfish player and it's nearly impossible to get that level of talent to play at RB, damn near disrespectful asking him to do it

    It can also be said that he has secured the Golden Boot win for the first time in his career, unless Salah scores four goals tomorrow (his last goal was on April 27, and it was just a single goal).

    Yeah. He manages to avoid any criticism because of his work rate. He's put in a shift and played out of position, but not exactly the best season from him.

    I'm really pleased with Mbappe. His goal, assisted by Vini today, made me dream of a season where they work together more closely. Hopefully, it will happen soon. Mbappe is the star of this team now, Vini must adapt.

    Vinny has to put his ego aside and supply Mbappe. If Vinny had been able to do just do what he did today with 50% more frequency (one move, quick pass - to the center of the pitch instead of to the byline) we probably win a few more games.

    was a good ball by Vini today.
    Tiredness can make you toxic as ********, maybe this is why Vini was acting up and being selfish.

    Let's see during the CWC

    Vinny has the teams most assists and has assisted Mbappe more than any other player. He also gave him PK's early in the season when Mbappe was struggling to get on target.

    If anything Mbappe is the one who needs to check his ego and know whenever he doesn't score he ads nothing because in many games even when he scores it's seems like he played against the team for the other 89 minutes.

    Try again, try harder.

    That won't last long if Vini crushes it in the CWC, if Xabi prefers playing through Vini and makes him the centerpiece or if Vini wins the WC with Brazil.

    All very realistic scenarios

    The amazing thing is we can now count down the days to getting a taste of Vini & Mbappe under Alonso. All our questions will be answered soon.

    So Mbappe doesn't have his best season but gets to play in a glamour position while not putting any effort in defense because grunt work takes some of his shine off.

    But Fed sacrifices for the team, does the grunt work playing out of a position in an area where he won't get to score goals and get recognition which results in the perception of a slightly less good season individually and that is used against him. Garbage take.

    -La Liga golden boot
    -UCL golden boot
    -European golden boot
    -World cup golden boot.

    Celebrating individual achievements in a season we won shit and played like shit is clown business. I'd be more happy if he scored half the goals he did, and the rest were distriburted among Vinicius and Bellingham, while Mbappe instead played defense and had a better linkup game.

    Having a 40+ goal scorer worry about defence and linkup when others in the team are paid to do that is also clown business. Lol

    Unless Mo Salah scores 3 goals or more tomorrow, Mbappe will win the European golden boot. Not bad for a "down season".

    Naw what's more important than the club for YOU is saying you were right about anything.

    My god,the season was always going to be difficult with our entire backline decimated. Can you not just focus on the good on a day like today or you have to find a way to ruin that for yourself as well?

    If his least significant achievements are going to come in a Madrid shirt then let me be the first to say count me out.

    I'm sure people would be calling for his head if he only scored 20 goals in a season, even if this team won La Liga. Just look at Benzema's stats and our treatment of him during the Ronaldo era.

    Don't really see any merit in stat padding or individual awards when the team isn't winning trophies, found that goose chase cringe even when we did it for Ronaldo.

    At the same time, this club values those at a premium, and the players probably got big bonuses written in their contracts for them.

    The second they started being put into contracts for bonuses whether from the club or the players sponsors, there's been a meteoric rise in records being broken. There's no stopping that train now.

    Glad to see he turned it around after that rough start. 43 goals in all competitions. Hopefully he keeps it up and the team wins some titles.
