Mbappe is more talented than Nacho. End of story. The guy has slotted seamlessly from youth football. Go watch his highlights at youth level and compare how he is now. Don't let patriotism blind you.

Loogan:


Wait so it is iheanacho who has not slotted in seamlessly, again you have to understand batshuayi was hot shit in marseille, came to Chelsea and barely saw minutes, ligue 1 and EPL is not the same thing..if iheanacho were in a team in a good competition like the champions league as a regular he would stun the world...what this boy has achieved as a youth in England experience epl strikers can only dream of...you think it's easy to have the best goal to game ratio in the history of epl and mind you he has scored quality goals in the UCL and for the SE all this without sufficient game time makes him proven in the eyes of epl bosses at just 21, let mbappe come and do what he has done then we can argue

edi287:

Don't know why this is so hard to accept. I said it when Pep first signed G Jesus that it was the end of Nacho but people on here said Nacho was a better number 9 and G Jesus would be played on the wing. Nacho is talented but we have to be careful not to overhype him like English fans do with their players.

Mickael2:


so you will start Iheanacho because Mbappe will gas out? Atleast you said the truth, but isn't that slightly hypocritical? I mean Iwobi gasses out after 60-65 mins at most but he still starts because of his quality, make una dey fear God ooo

edi287:

Iheanacho would not have gotten into the Monaco first 11 at 18. Let's be honest!! Mbappe is one of the most talented 18 year old since R9, rooney and Messi. Nacho is talented, but Mbappe is just better

TheSuperNerd:
His run of games will surely come.... only that people still wanna use ligue 1 stats to dust EPL stats... very funny to me.

The EPL is far tougher than Ligue 1.... Only bundesliga and LA liga are technically higher in quality than the EPL. But the EPL is the most physical and most intense league on the planet. Possibly the toughest league too.

Ligue 1 is not in that class as good a league as it is.

TheGoodJoe:


Please, Gabby has made some glaring errors in front of goal. He is not lethal in the box. What makes the young star Precious is his play outside the box. The way he drifts to the wings, drops deep to defend and connects with the midfield.

I personally feel we made a mistake not utilizing Nacho this season. He is out most lethal player upfront. Even Guardiola agrees. Manchester City created the most chances this season in the EPL but failed to bury loads. I have no doubt that Nacho in front of those chances would have improved our position on the table.

Guardiola said he wants to buy goals but here we are selling Nacho, a true definition of goals.

safarigirl:
Mbappe will gas out thirty minutes in, and will come off without a goal because the skelemba boys will ensure he won't even see the ball.

Iheanacho will at least drag ball with same boys until he scores or gives someone else to score. You think African football is about fancy footwork?

Mbappe will eat grass against SA.

The 60-65 mins Iwobi lasted against Senegal, na just God put am through, else, that pikin for faint for there, and that was just a friendly. Now, if that was a competitive match, na stretcher dem for use carry am comot from field

Kog45:
pls who is d better player?

TheSuperNerd:

Looollll.... Baseless Assumption.... Hahahahahahahahaha and you call this honesty? smh...

You know all these. So why did you crucify Siasia for not starting Iwobi and Iheanacho against Egypt in Alexandria?

TheGoodJoe:


Judge Nacho after his run of games.

TheGoodJoe:


It is time for the young man to make the most of it. It is Nacho time. I wish City and Nacho the best. It was a nice relationship that produced great fruits.

It is Nacho time.

Baseless assumption how?? Only on this page have I seen people claim Mbappe isn't the real deal and overhyped when his performances proves otherwise. Mbappe is a more talented and better player than Nacho

Icon4s:


Nacho's argument has brought TheGoodJoe out. Welcome back.

So after Iheanacho signs for WestHam and City are to play West Ham with Iheanacho as the arrow man, which team will you support?

TheSuperNerd:
Who said he isn't the real deal? me?

I even suggest Mbappe stays one more year at Monaco before taking off to Real Madrid.... I see the lad at Madrid... or any of the big clubs.

But saying Nacho at 18 won't walk into Monaco's first team to lead their attack in ligue 1 is absolutely baseless and has no evidence for it.... it is just a fallacy. A "fact-less" statement.

And saying he is better is only a matter of mere opinion... looolll... assumptions everywhere.

Ndidi everyday of the week and twice on Matchdays

safarigirl:
and you know this how? I never knew Monaco is now Real Madrid or Barcelona level, it is just another team in the average league one.

Just because they put in a good UCL performance this season doesn't make the Monaco team extraordinary. You think Mbappe would have seen playing time in City?

Do you guys even reason why City has a buy-back clause for Nacho? When has City ever put a buy-back clause for their players? You think they don't know what Kelechi is capable of? You think they don't think he is of a high standard?

18-year old Kelechi already had an award for CAF Most Promising Talent, he didn't even need to score a UCL goal then to get such an award even though his predecessors were at least 6 years older. What has 18-year old Mbappe won apart from a ridiculous price tag?

edi287:

Not opinion, Fact. Anyone who watches both can clearly tell who is better.

Mickael2:



you mean like Zaha was eating grass? Nawa o. This your assumption that African games are tough is downright ridiculous, why then did a European team win the World Cup on African soil? They for gas out na, Cameroon for win that tourney

kingphilip:
Aside the adage that says they that compare themselves are not wise, I don't naturally like comparing individuals

Everyone is unique in their own way and contributes too to a team to the best of their abilities and how their respective team plays

Before I even try to place players side by side I start with the question do they play the same wing? Before a start looking at other factors such as their general contributions to overall performance of the team

Iheanacho and Mbappe are two great guys on their own merit.. Mbappe operates better from the wings as Pointed out by Mickael2 while Iheanacho thrives better from SS as Pointed out by BascoVanVeli if I remember correctly..

So how can the comparison go smoothly when they're not playing same position, same league and for the same team?

The conversation on this thread is awesome and I respect it a lot but this argument is just like a 9 in which two people stand at opposite direction one seeing a 6 and the other seeing a 9 both of them are correct from their own views and based on their parameters...

I agree that both of you are correct Thesupernerd and Mickael2 from your own view but me I'll love to have both of them in my team though to be destroying opponents
