I keep mentioning it on this forum that Mbappe is one of a kind. Not even Griezmann has the ball control of mbappe and I'm sure of it. 

Since Thierry Henry retired there hasn't been any similar talent till I saw mbappe. Speed, ballcontrol and absolute killer finishing at his young age. But unfortunately our board have little eye for world-class potential. 

I disagree. His ball control doesn't wow me at all. Genuine superstar talent but not because of his ball control.

Can't blame the club for not being able to sign players like Mbappe. When the whole world wants you, it's silly to assume Chelsea can just pick up the player in question.

I would agree with the club placing too much emphasis on the physical rather than the technical when acquiring players though. But that's also linked to the type of managers they appoint.

How do you rate Florian Thauvin? I know he had a disastrous spell in England but he has been in tremendous form ever since his move back to France, even managed to get a call-up to the French national squad. He reminds me a bit of Robben tbh, the way he cuts inside from the right to make use of his deadly left peg, also has a great delivery on him.    

'He has no awareness or intelligence'; that is what the Marseille fans I know say about him.

Spanish Press saying Hazard has met up with real madrid officials. What worries me is that when they start stirring up all this shit, those cunts usually end up getting the player.

I dont believe it but we gotta start planning our future without Eden imo. He's at the age where he's ready for a big big move. Sanchez, Mbappe, Griezmann maybe?

The potential money being thrown around if all four of those players listed move is really an abstraction to me. I can't see any of them moving for less than 50,000,000.

It truly is amazing how European Football exists within it's own economic bubble.

For 50m these days you can only buy a lollipop.

He's been their most influential player this season though.

It's Marseille in Ligue 1. He is quick, strong, and great shooting and dribbling technique, he doesn't have to be smart to beat defenders in Ligue 1 when he can just physically outplay them. That is what I imagine is the reasoning.

That may well be the reason but maybe he'll get smarter as he gains more experience? He has just turned 24 recently.

Some people are just stupid. Look at Hatem Ben Arfa for instance.

I like how really means business at the business end of the season.

Example being how he rushes back these days to win the ball back for the team. Normally, the opposition don't expect him to do so, so its a big surprise to them when he does do it...catches them completely off guard. And of course, a help to our defense
