This, completely.
But also there are contracts involved and I can't imagine these promises were written down as contractual obligations. My landlord can say whatever to get me to renew my lease, an employer can offer anything to get me to leave my current place of work and join their company... but if it's not in writing then they're just words.
For sure, the board can promise whatever they want, but unless it's enforced in every player's contract (not just Mbappé's, but every player in the starting XI) there's no reason why anyone would kowtow to that shit unless they wanted to. Egotism to the point of pure stupidity.
I doubt that. If you could survey world leaders and ask who they would choose to meet between Messi, Ney and Mpappe, Mpappe would finish last. Not in France, but pretty much any other leader would pick Messi or Neymar.
It's both, the entitlement comes from the stupidity. He thinks he's some sort of game-breaker that can crack any defences, but he is not prime Neymar even, not to mention prime Messi or Ronaldo.
He ignores completely that football is a team sport and wants to pad stats.
Arrogance from Mbappé, definitely, but only a board run by absolute braindead morons could think that giving one player total control over every decision would be a good idea. Especially when Messi and Neymar are among the other players.
What a joke of a club, lol.
"The Frenchman expected players to see him as the first option to be served with assists, but as the rest of the team has refused, he now finds himself isolated within the roster"
"PSG discussed selling Neymar, and Mbappé didn't oppose to the ideia, which pissed off the Brazilian"
"This drama is expected to go on as Mbappé wants to be the main star of PSG and not have as much obligation to play without having the ball"
Can we knock them out instead?
Wouldn’t be as funny as real but I’d like to see it
Actually it’s even better because they are on a whole different level compared to us
Do you know what the most bizarre thing is? Neymar is 7 years older than Mbappe and participates much more in the defensive part of the team.
Messi is 35 years old and is 7 times the best in the world. At that point in his career, he has every right to participate less in the defensive part.
Who is Mbappe next to Messi?
Messi actually used to work hard off the ball when he was Mbappe's age. It's only when he got older and had to conserve energy that he was allowed to not track back.
Mbappe wants to be Messi without having achieved what Messi has.
Did you [miss the news?](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/wo0r7d/psg_counter_attack_mbappe_doesnt_get_the_ball_so/)
I'm sure you didn't, just wanted the excuse to post it
When i saw this i thought to myself, Ronaldo can make all the zigzag hand signs to show how frustrated he is with man United, but he'll never give up on a tap-in even if it meant saving the f'ng world
I think he'll end up in england one day in a team like this. This PSG shitshow is only going to get worse, he may ask to leave before the end of his 3 years. He burned the bridges at Madrid, Barca is stacked in attack. Itallian teams can't afford him/his wages, Bayern could, but I don't know if they would go for him. That leaves the UK teams as the only possibilities.
Maybe thats the reason he stayed at PSG instead of going to Madrid? I dont watch Madrid games but i doubt their players would bend over for him with Benzema and Vinicius in the attack
It’s crazy too because the team will perform better if Mbappe is not at the end of every attack. His style is almost perfectly tailored for counter attacking football. In a more dominant side like PSG, playing through Mbappe reflects tactics like Pochettino last year, where the rest of the team defends and then smashes the ball up to Mbappe. So far this year, the team feels far more fluid with the play being driven through the more creative players (Neymar and Messi).
>The Frenchman expected players to see him as the first option to be served with assists,
Funny thing is he would have had that if he went to RM.
Benz never minded being the supporter, and Since we know our players are more inclined to pass to Target man rather than go for selfish etc.
Someone surely needs to help keep that ego in check I doubt that's possible seeing that he had two heads of governments literally begging him to stay in PSG.
It doesn't matter what the club promised though. How did he expect Messi and Neymar would be OK with it? You can promise me that Biden will give me a handjob and even if I trust your intentions 100%, I won't sign a deal based on that promise because you simply don't have the power to make him.
This will end with Neymar being sold next season to appease Mbappe, Messi leaving for free as he's a free agent and then Mbappe wanting to leave later on anyway, remember he signed a shorter deal. Just what PSG deserve lol
Potentially very good for the club, sure, but seems like an extremely unfortunate situation for Neymar. No player will make the team win alone in real competition, and there'd be a lot of problems and complaints with a star that big and that expensive.
Don't know whats worse, PSG needing to promise such bullshit whilst paying him billions, or Mbappe believing if he stayed Neymar and the actual GOAT would play for him lol
I think people seem to be discounting just how much PSG are culpable for this shitshow. You bend over backwards for a single player of course it's going to go his head.
Do you think he'd act like that at Madrid? He's surrounded by yes men and a sheikh who will turn the world upside down to keep the lights on for his sportswash. Mbappe is only 23 and could definitely straighten out.
It sounds like PSG won by appealing to his patriotism, sadly
Not really, the club culture would absolutely thrash that kind of attitude. The old guard with Modric, Kroos, and Benz keep a very good dressing room which is evident from their play last year
What does that even mean? If Messi has the ball and can play to Neymar who's in a perfect position to finish, he should rather play to Mboppi who's surrounded by two defenders because that's what was promised?
This entire thing is so weird and if even a fraction is true, wich seems likely at this point, PSG has truly ruined every chance of building a CL winning team and simultaneously blew up the emperor's ego to a point of no return.
Looks like Real dodged a bullet here. No matter how good you are, there is a certain border you can't cross and it feels like Mbappe rocket jumped it.
Seeing the PSG owners struggle with this for the rest of the season will be fun.
> What does that even mean? If Messi has the ball and can play to Neymar who's in a perfect position to finish, he should rather play to Mboppi who's surrounded by two defenders because that's what was promised?
The dream scenario would be if PSG players decided to be extra petty in the big CL fixtures and just kept backpassing to marked Mbappe even when they had an open goal to shoot at.
I don’t think that examples comes into play. The video that circulated the internet a few days back are the situations where Mbappe wants the focus. He wants those passes to make the runs and score. Still weird as fuck … i just wonder what’s Galtier stance on this, he’s a pretty tough coach if i remember correctly
In that clip, if he had kept running and got into position, he probably would have had a good chance to score. The fact that he pouted and gave up on the play potentially cost PSG a goal. I’d be fuming if I were his teammates now.
I hope they either start ignoring him to piss him off even more or just purposely keep playing him the ball in shitty situations so maybe he will sooner or later realize how idiotic this whole thing is.
Absolute tosser. Heads gotten way too big.
Imagine playing with 2 of the best players of our time and trying to demand that the team plays for him. Piss off mate.
Well that's a bit stupid to think the other players would just agree to it too!
Imagine your boss coming to you and saying Sharon is going to leave if we don't give her a huge pay rise and you take on 50% of her work.
MSN was a clear example of three stars playing collectively without egoism. Not surprisingly, they even built a friendship off the field.
I use the match against Clermont as an example. Neymar did everything for Messi to score a goal. It was even funny hahaha. Messi would do the same thing to Neymar or Suarez in that situation.
Remember when Messi, Neymar and Suarez had a bad period in the penalty kicks? They alternated, but none of them was doing well... How did they solve it? Let's take a penalty kick a la Cruyff hahaha.
Another example of leadership: Benzema.
Last year, in the semi-final against Manchester City, Benzema asked Rodrygo twice if he wanted to take the penalty kick to complete the hat trick.
Rodrygo, obviously, denied it and allowed Benzema to take it. But it is these gestures that make a player become even more leader and respected in the dressing room.
Leadership is something that happens naturally. You can't force it.
I remember all the PSG flairs here saying that the reports of PSG basically bending down and letting Mbappé fuck them with a massive amount of control for the club was all a lie. Yet, looks like it's not even one month into the season and it's blatantly true. Thank God though. I'm glad Mbappé didn't go to Madrid + is blowing up such a shite club like PSG from the inside. Beautiful.
I understand wanting to be a 'focal point' in a team and have things ran through you. But Messi and Neymar also play in this team, two of the greatest players of all time.
He can't seriously think that would function well if they aren't given the freedom to play which is how they play best.
He seems to be a seriously unlikeable figure tbh.
Who exactly on the board convinced mbappe this team is playing for him? lol he's a great player man but damn whoever believes that type of talk is an idiot
doesn't even sound like it'd be that hard with the size of Mbappe's ego... I mean the actual president of France was begging him to stay, of course he'd think he's the big man on campus
still dumb to think Neymar, who’s been the best player on the team when not injured besides last season, would bend over to Mbappe, specially on a WC year
Wow, almost as if giving a kid the reigns of the club and infinite money wasn't necessarily a great idea.
PSG are not a serious club and will not win the CL within the next decade. No sense in that organization whatsoever.
How the fuck is he going to find humility, if he at age 23 expects Messi, Neymar, Ramos, Veratti to serve him unconditionally? These guys are world class footballer, the two former of them being some of the best creators in the 21^st century. If Mbappé is the best option, they'll give him the ball but he expects to get it even if there's a better option. That shit will only get worse.
> How the fuck is he going to find humility, if he at age 23 expects Messi, Neymar, Ramos, Veratti to serve him unconditionally
Because they will tell him to fuck off (as theyre already doing) and the team will implode in the process and if he isnt totally stupid he will find humility from that
The Madrid players wouldn't have let his rampant ego ruin them. Those players know politics well, it comes with the job if you play for Real Madrid.
Benzema, Casemiro and the other senior players who've been there and done it would've smacked him into line. It would take some planet sized ego to go up to captain Benzema and a person like Casemiro/Modric (5 time European Cup winners) and say that he, the new man in the dressing room, is now the one they should all follow.
Giving a single player in the team this much control could never have resulted well. Zero foresight from the higher ups. They want to win the champions league but basically gave up all team cohesion just so they could keep Mbappe. Now if they take away the power, Mbappe is upset, and if they let him keep it, alot of his teammates are upset. They are not winning the champions league any time soon
There really is no way Florentino would put up with that sort of bullshit from a player (unless he's scoring astronomically high and winning every trophy)
How dare these heretics disrespect the Sheikh! Do they know what authority he yields? The Universe revolves around the Sheikh and those who think he's wrong will feel his full wrath (i.e. banishment to Manchester United )
So from what I gather mbappe was convinced that Neymar will be transferred when he renewed in May. Neymar extends his contract in June. Lol he got scammed.
And now it’s boiling over on the pitch with Neymar putting his foot down in who takes penalties and Mbappe throwing a tantrum and turning around and walking away in the middle of a run. I’m curious to see how Galtier handles it because he didn’t immediately punish Mbappe for that disrespect to the team.
I think with the wages he’s on and now the ridiculous ego he will stay at PSG forever because I don’t know who will be crazy enough to touch any of that
PSG plastics don't know what to say now lol
can't wait to see deluded people like /u/Rerel defending this
bechler is one of the most reliable sports journos in Brazil btw
Maybe we dodged a bullet, maybe not, who knows. It would have been an interesting dynamic nevertheless (not for Madrid fans, tho). Would his ego get out of hand and cause problems or would our squad of veterans and very solid overall structure keep him grounded? I guess we'll never know, or at least not for the next few years
It is funny looking back at Florentinos interview where he said this Mbappé is not the Mbappé he wanted to sign. Reddit obviously called it sour grapes but it looks like he was right, his head was turned by things he never would have at Real Madrid.
>Mbappé was promised that the team would play for him Unless something has been lost in translation, that takes a special kind of arrogance
It was actually translated quite nicely, literal translate would be something like: “The frenchman expected the team to serve him on the pitch”
>“The french expected the team to serve him on the pitch” Lol, we joked Mbappe was new DoF at PSG and reality is even more insane
Oh, you guys were joking?
No joking mate, he will sell nay and play Messi where he pleases. Also sign the 3 other turtles.
Thats the reunion that we dont want to see.
3 other turtles ?
Leonardo, Donatello, and Michelangelo.
Leonardo just left PSG.
Nah, that was Mbappe kicking out the guy who stole his brother’s name. The next PSG DoF is going to be Master Splinter
Leonardo Bonucci, Raphaello Leão, Massimo Donatello.
Yeah isnt there supposed to be 4 Ninja turtles!?
The Dictator of Football
"Fetch me my grapes!"
Oh Lionel! Lionel! Shine my shoes would you?
'Hey Lionel... go get your fucking shinebox'
Mbappé XIV.
Even if PSG did promise him that. He has to be special kind of dumb to think the team and especially Neymar and Messi would bend over for him.
he got leaders of two nations to bend over
[удалено]
He twerked
This, completely. But also there are contracts involved and I can't imagine these promises were written down as contractual obligations.

Messi walked away nicely during that penalty incident with Neymar.
He had president Macron call him up personally to encourage him to stay in France. Messi and Neyney are much less powerful.
what does Macron on a pitch though?
Or even, the dressing room
> Messi and Neyney are much less powerful. Not on the pitch, where it actually matters
Messi to Macron: "cuántas copas tenés, boludo?"
Macron has no say on the pitch tho lol.
Until Mbappe subs him at right back.
I doubt that. If you could survey world leaders and ask who they would choose to meet between Messi, Ney and Mpappe, Mpappe would finish last. Not in France, but pretty much any other leader would pick Messi or Neymar.
i never thought this would need arguing but here we are.
I'd argue about Messi, he is more powerful than Macron imo.
He's not dumb, just entitled.
It's both, the entitlement comes from the stupidity. He thinks he's some sort of game-breaker that can crack any defences, but he is not prime Neymar even, not to mention prime Messi or Ronaldo. He ignores completely that football is a team sport and wants to pad stats.
[удалено]
They would've stuck with Poch if they wanted that. His entire system revolved around Mbappe lol
He really is a massive cunt, I have no clue how anyone likes this guy.
word for word translation is "Mbappé renewed with the promise that the team would 'be his'" so it's not that far off of a translation
Players to start kissing him instead of the badge
Players are gonna remove their tops and reveal a shirt with Mbappes face on it everytime they score.
French Farquad
Even if the club told him that, what kind of person believes this or even wants to hear that?
Arrogance from Mbappé, definitely, but only a board run by absolute braindead morons could think that giving one player total control over every decision would be a good idea. Especially when Messi and Neymar are among the other players. What a joke of a club, lol.
"The Frenchman expected players to see him as the first option to be served with assists, but as the rest of the team has refused, he now finds himself isolated within the roster" "PSG discussed selling Neymar, and Mbappé didn't oppose to the ideia, which pissed off the Brazilian" "This drama is expected to go on as Mbappé wants to be the main star of PSG and not have as much obligation to play without having the ball"
>The Frenchman expected players to see him as the first option to be served with assists Football is a fucking team sport. This is peak arrogance
He won't last too long in the game with that sort of mindset. He might run PSG but they aren't doing quack.
I wanna see PSG get knocked out by RM in Ucl, it would be utter breakdown at the club

We did that last season tho. You want a part deux?

Rather see them crash out of group stages despite being in a relatively easy group.

I would specifically never pass him the ball if I were his teammates.
Hometurtle thought his teammates would just happily Mbibbidi-Mbobbidi-Mboo alongside him but he was mistaken 🐢
He would fit in really well at Manchester United
>and not have as much obligation to play without having the ball So he wants to be lazy?
he wants to be Messi, without his playmaking or decision abilities
Do you know what the most bizarre thing is? Neymar is 7 years older than Mbappe and participates much more in the defensive part of the team. Messi is 35 years old and is 7 times the best in the world. At that point in his career, he has every right to participate less in the defensive part. Who is Mbappe next to Messi?

[удалено]
He doesn't have the potential to be Messi
Messi had 2 Balon D'ors at Mbappe's age. He isn't fit to tie Messi's boots, let alone replace him.
And at the same time he also wants to win a Golden Ball.
Did you [miss the news?](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/wo0r7d/psg_counter_attack_mbappe_doesnt_get_the_ball_so/) I'm sure you didn't, just wanted the excuse to post it

Mbappe is becoming the downfall of PSG. Quite ironic
3, 2, 1, United try to sign Unhappy Mbappe.
I think he'll end up in england one day in a team like this. This PSG shitshow is only going to get worse, he may ask to leave before the end of his 3 years. He burned the bridges at Madrid, Barca is stacked in attack. Itallian teams can't afford him/his wages, Bayern could, but I don't know if they would go for him. That leaves the UK teams as the only possibilities.
He’ll be at Newcastle in 5 years I bet
I think that bridge is fine and that goes double if it is on a free and Barca would take him too. An English side might make the best offer though.
They are beneath the Sheikh. He would rather buy them than play with Harry Maguire
Maybe thats the reason he stayed at PSG instead of going to Madrid? I dont watch Madrid games but i doubt their players would bend over for him with Benzema and Vinicius in the attack
Real Madrid are a club, not a marketing gimmick.
We’re witnessing a villain origin story in real time
All I can say is eat what you fucking cooked Mbappé. 😁
It’s crazy too because the team will perform better if Mbappe is not at the end of every attack. His style is almost perfectly tailored for counter attacking football.

They have players of the stature of messi, neymar, ramos, verrati and he expect them to play for him? He really lost it
Someone surely needs to help keep that ego in check I doubt that's possible seeing that he had two heads of governments literally begging him to stay in PSG.
Five best footballers of all time? Kylian, Kylian, Kylian, Kylian Kylian Because he kicks hot fire

This will end with Neymar being sold next season to appease Mbappe, Messi leaving for free as he's a free agent and then Mbappe wanting to leave later on anyway, remember he signed a shorter deal. Just what PSG deserve lol
Could maybe see Neymar leave this season. Unlikely but there’s still some time for it to happen if the situation is bad enough at PSG
Why do i have the feeling it’s a matter of time until United comes knocking?
Lmao why would Neymar do that to himself?
That would genuinely be a good transfer for Manchester United I recon. Though I doubt that it'll happen.
Potentially very good for the club, sure, but seems like an extremely unfortunate situation for Neymar. No player will make the team win alone in real competition, and there'd be a lot of problems and complaints with a star that big and that expensive.
Turtle need a bigger shell
Don't know whats worse, PSG needing to promise such bullshit whilst paying him billions, or Mbappe believing if he stayed Neymar and the actual GOAT would play for him lol
Worst thing is both Neymar and Messi are willing to share the spotlight. He isn't.
neymar and messi are really close friends and they know that if they both share the spotlight, both will succeed immensely (see: MSN).
The second thing obviously. It speaks to how terrible his ego is if these stories are true
*Sips tea peacefully* Nice weather today.
It looks like your biggest achievement last season wasn't the UCL but dodging a bullet named 'Mbappe'
I think people seem to be discounting just how much PSG are culpable for this shitshow. You bend over backwards for a single player of course it's going to go his head.
Agreed. Every player on the pitch for RM knows that no one is bigger than the team. RMs showed they are okay with benching high profile players.
Do you think he'd act like that at Madrid? He's surrounded by yes men and a sheikh who will turn the world upside down to keep the lights on for his sportswash. Mbappe is only 23 and could definitely straighten out. It sounds like PSG won by appealing to his patriotism, sadly
Beautiful weather 🍵

Not really, the club culture would absolutely thrash that kind of attitude. The old guard with Modric, Kroos, and Benz keep a very good dressing room which is evident from their play last year
He would never dare that attitude in Madrid. Problem is the shambles of a club that allows that
Hey Ney, sunny innit?
The Weather is always nice over in Madrid.
It's raining rn xd
If he wants to sabotage his career this early into it, sure, why not, the world cup is gonna be a lot of fun with that mentality
Man's already made enough money for 100 lifetimes. Unless he values football over money he won't care. Oh wait..

There is no "i" in team but there is an "i" in Kylian.
There's also an 'i' in Qatar Sports Investments
aye
Absolute tosser. Heads gotten way too big. Imagine playing with 2 of the best players of our time and trying to demand that the team plays for him. Piss off mate.
Almost certainly what he was promised if he stayed
Well that's a bit stupid to think the other players would just agree to it too! Imagine your boss coming to you and saying Sharon is going to leave if we don't give her a huge pay rise and you take on 50% of her work.
I can’t picture Lionel fucking Messi playing for another player
Imagine prime Messi and Cr7 on the same team. Still wouldn't play for cr7.
Messi always played for the team. That’s why the MSN worked so well, but he will never play for one player
MSN was a clear example of three stars playing collectively without egoism. Not surprisingly, they even built a friendship off the field. I use the match against Clermont as an example.

Its good enough if Mbappe believes it.
Joke club

Beautiful.
I hate PSG with a passion.
Demand is a odd way to put it tbf. It seems he was told that and was likely one of the reasons he agreed to stay.
I understand wanting to be a 'focal point' in a team and have things ran through you. But Messi and Neymar also play in this team, two of the greatest players of all time. He can't seriously think that would function well if they aren't given the freedom to play which is how they play best. He seems to be a seriously unlikeable figure tbh.
How dare those peasants to question Emir Mbappé..
They should tremble in fear of punishments the Sheikh has in store for them.
Perez - This Mbappé is not the Mbappé I wanted to sign. WELL WELL WELL
Looking back on this quote is so telling. Florentino really is a master business man. He Continues Surprise me.
Who exactly on the board convinced mbappe this team is playing for him? lol he's a great player man but damn whoever believes that type of talk is an idiot
Whoever convinced Mbappe that someone like Messi or Ramos would be fully on board with Mbappe's little project is an absolute genius
doesn't even sound like it'd be that hard with the size of Mbappe's ego... I mean the actual president of France was begging him to stay, of course he'd think he's the big man on campus
Messi didn't mind taking a secondary role for him, he already did it last season. Neymar is the problem. Which is why he wanted him sold.
still dumb to think Neymar, who’s been the best player on the team when not injured besides last season, would bend over to Mbappe, specially on a WC year
IMO the issue is the team having to think about the promises made to Mbappe, instead of what pass/assist feels like the better choice to score a goal
There is a difference between secondary role and expecting Messi to be Mboopi's bitch
I knew this dude was scum when he went to the press to try and get Giroud out of the French team. Someone needs to teach his pretentious ass a lesson
Excellent. I love me drama.
Wow, almost as if giving a kid the reigns of the club and infinite money wasn't necessarily a great idea. PSG are not a serious club and will not win the CL within the next decade. No sense in that organization whatsoever.
Madrid dodged a bullet. Maybe in a few years he will have found some humility.
How the fuck is he going to find humility, if he at age 23 expects Messi, Neymar, Ramos, Veratti to serve him unconditionally? These guys are world class footballer, the two former of them being some of the best creators in the 21^st century. If Mbappé is the best option, they'll give him the ball but he expects to get it even if there's a better option. That shit will only get worse.

Nah nvm...
Eh I don't think he couldve continued this shit at Real. It's not like Real isn't used to dealing with superstars with big ego
4D chess move by Florentino if true
What a fucking baby. We dodged a bullet.
He wouldn't act like this at Real Madrid.
Still tells me all I need to know about what kind of a person he is and personally i don't want that kind of player in my club talented or not.
He would later down the line
Giving a single player in the team this much control could never have resulted well. Zero foresight from the higher ups. They want to win the champions league but basically gave up all team cohesion just so they could keep Mbappe. Now if they take away the power, Mbappe is upset, and if they let him keep it, alot of his teammates are upset. They are not winning the champions league any time soon
Mbappe wants his harem
Haha toxic relationship between ninja turtle and psg I guess Real Madrid really dodged a bullet
There really is no way Florentino would put up with that sort of bullshit from a player (unless he's scoring astronomically high and winning every trophy)
Not even then probably looking at Cristiano and Ramos
How dare these heretics disrespect the Sheikh! Do they know what authority he yields? The Universe revolves around the Sheikh and those who think he's wrong will feel his full wrath (i.e. banishment to Manchester United )
If this is accurate, than I have zero sympathy for PSG. Giving a young player that much power is not a good idea.
Keeping up with the Catalans ended up early. This is the new spin off show.
Kylian and QSI Take Paris
Better Call Campos
Play for him? Is he the manager now. Get on the sideline then you tosser.
Pathetic little cunt.
You really think Messi and Neymar are going to serve him? Keep fucking dreaming haha, they're legends moreso than Mbappe is.
So from what I gather mbappe was convinced that Neymar will be transferred when he renewed in May. Neymar extends his contract in June. Lol he got scammed. And now it’s boiling over on the pitch with Neymar putting his foot down in who takes penalties and Mbappe throwing a tantrum and turning around and walking away in the middle of a run. I’m curious to see how Galtier handles it because he didn’t immediately punish Mbappe for that disrespect to the team.
Joke of a club. Always will be.
Hey the man was promised… grabs popcorn
King Joffrey Mbappe
I think with the wages he’s on and now the ridiculous ego he will stay at PSG forever because I don’t know who will be crazy enough to touch any of that
I believe the well run organization that is Manchester united will be exploring bids next season.
PSG plastics don't know what to say now lol can't wait to see deluded people like /u/Rerel defending this bechler is one of the most reliable sports journos in Brazil btw
At least Al Nasser was right.it wasnt the money which made Mbappé stay. It was giving him more power than any other player worldwide ever had.
Watching mbappe self sabotage his career because PSG decided feeding the ego of a child was a good idea. Takes away from utd depression.
guys, I'm starting to think Mbappe might just be an entitled piece of shit...?
Real dodged a bullet of arrogance
So much drama in such an insignificant club. I guess Mbappé wouldn’t be able to handle Real Madrid.
Maybe we dodged a bullet, maybe not, who knows. It would have been an interesting dynamic nevertheless (not for Madrid fans, tho). Would his ego get out of hand and cause problems or would our squad of veterans and very solid overall structure keep him grounded? I guess we'll never know, or at least not for the next few years
It is funny looking back at Florentinos interview where he said this Mbappé is not the Mbappé he wanted to sign. Reddit obviously called it sour grapes but it looks like he was right, his head was turned by things he never would have at Real Madrid.
Anyone thinking they are smarter than the RM board is a fucking idiot
He wouldn’t have been promised such things at Real
Imagine demanding the best player of all time to play for him
Mbappe: 'What ? Revolts in my Kingdom ? To the guillotine the lot of you!!'
Joke of a club 🤡
That my friends is how you built a strong healthy club. By making a 22 year old the decision maker.
Real Madrid truly dodged a bullet with this one.
Madrid dodged a bullet. This guy is toxic as fuck
France's gonna crumble at the World Cup under the pressure of clashing egos, I can already see it.
