Kylian Mbappé | Real Madrid Player (pg620)

Sane is our mbappe

Potentially.

But like Mbappe, he has better central players in front of him at present.

When he fills out i suspect that's where Sane will end up, playing through the middle or at least have the capacity to play all across the front line positions. At this stage though due to his mobility and pace he is more effective/devastating coming from deep.

If he's going to move there, I imagine it will have to be in the next season or so, before we end up.signing Sergio's replacement. Ronaldo kind of did it in stages at first before becoming a regular there.

The signing of Mahrez could mean Sané gets a few minutes in the middle, with players shuffling around.

Yeah spot on. I'm hoping that's true of bernardo too. With mahrez coming hopefully he may get the opportunity to rotate with silva. I remember him ripping city a new one when Monaco came to the Etihad. That night he appeared to play more centrally, if not a free role. I just think given patience he would excel in that role.

Read my earlier posts. Like Vardy has been, he is not effective against a deep block with no space to use his pace. Hence France when playing against a deep block the lad did Jack shit in his first three matches, one of which he was benched. Vardy the same when he has come on against a deep block defence, created and did Jack shit. Back to the lad he came alive against a shite Argentina team who opened up like a tin of sardines when they were chasing the game ( No pun intended) 95 percent of the teams we played last season sat deep, opening up deep lying defences at this stage does not appear to be his strength.
Counters and open games seem to be his bread and butter which I can guess will be 90 percent of his goals on the attached youtube showreel. Gi PSG probably have the same issue as City with teams sitting back. 13 goals all last season in a shit league against deep lying defences tells me all I need to know. He ain't even near ready for City.

You write so much about things you don't know its ridiculous...
Ligue 1 is known for having deep blocks and being extremely defensive, every single team PSG is facing is playing with a deep block unless its Monaco or Olympique Lyonnais but it didnt stop him from tearing the league with Monaco or PSG.
You're judging his inability to play against deep blocks just on 3 group games where the whole France team was just boring to watch. Even Messi couldnt do anything against deep blocks during this World Cup, does that mean he's an upscale Vardy too ? What kind of logic is that good lord.
You're talking about him as if he only has pace which is complete nonsense. I've seen enough games from him to know he's able to tare apart deep blocks too but it also depends on the team. You can't 1 vs 11.
Besides the ammount of goals he has scored means nothing, you're forgetting on purpose the fact that Neymar came at the same moment and the fact that the teenager stated in an ITW that he will do what Neymar did for Messi (which is basically bow his head and play for him). So he spent the season playing for Neymar rather than being a selfish finisher.

"Upscale and upmarket Vardy" Good lord you'll look really dumb in a few years when he will be the same age that Sane is right now.

There is a fair market value in the rules though mate? And an associated partner rule as well? Otherwise the Abu Dhabi tourist board could sponsor us £500m a year!

there is but they've passed this rule last season and the season before last so there's no issue here either

First of all your second paragraph reiterates exactly what I have said in my previous post about PSG having to face deep blocks like city. So I ain't got a clue what your on about there. Again read my previous posts I'm assessing the lad on what city want from their forwards, a false 9 who makes the whole system tick but who can chip in with goals. For example Firminio, Son, hazard even. Comparing mbappe with Messi is your issue not mine so its not worth a response. The lack of goals he has scored is significant because its a shit league and as you have described PSG, face the same deep blocks as City. So if he can't rack em up in a shit league what makes u think he will rack em up in the Prem. I'm not sure what he cost but what your saying is PSG paid 150mil plus for Mbappe to clean his boots for a season. Come the fuck on! As for the reference to the lad being an upmarket vardy, I agree there it was harsh. But what I was saying is that both thrive in open spaces, playing on the shoulder of the defender marking them. Let me repeat again I ain't saying the lad is shit. What i seriously doubt is how is current skillset would work with what city want from their forwards, its a lot more than goals, ask aguero. Further I remember 3 years ago much of the same hype surrounding Pogba when it was thought he may be coming to City. Can anyone on this forum honestly tell me he's justified the hype and fee at utd. Mbappe is a very good player for his age, but needs to develop. Pogba should be a clear reminder that when it comes development and form nothing is a given in the Prem.

I know. I am a bit of a dick at times butbon reflection the other fella or woman is right the vardy comparison is way too harsh. The lad has much much moremin his locker but in principle I stand by much of what I'm saying. Doesn't mean I'm right though. Just another opinion.
