Who will be the 3rd best player in Mbappé-Haaland era?

[Xhavenjoe]

Rodri is the best player in world. KDB when fully fit is too 3 as well. Haaland best goal scorer but not in top 3 players in the world surely. Not sure Mbappe is.

Can you explain to me if Rodri is the best player in the world why he doesn't even get our player of the year award.
I think Rodri outstanding but KDB has won it 4 times and Foden this season.

In the last few years the Premier league player of the season has been won by KDB Dias Haaland and now Foden.
There is something that people don't see or get with Rodri.

Interesting question. My guess would be that unless you are watching Rodri regularly, it's hard to see what he actually does. Indeed, it's quite hard to put your finger on it. He just is. He's an omnipresence. Like God. (okay, minor hyperbole there)

Even if you don't watch City regularly, you still see KDB's goals and assists, you still see Dias's last-ditch tackles and commanding headers, Haaland and Foden both score lots of goals so get far more exposure.

Don’t know pal but last season and this he’s the best player in his position in the world and arguably the most important player to both City and Spain. Phenomenal player.

I wouldn't argue that Rodders is the best at what he does, however the most complete player is undoubtedly KDB, and has been for a number of years. Messi and the fake Ronaldo get the plaudits, but, even discounting Ronaldos attitude issues, given a choice between the 3 at their peak, it's an absolute no brainer for me that Kev gets the nod

This might get me banned but while Haaland is an amazing goal scorer he’s nowhere near the best player in the world.

The best footballers tend to be midfielders IMO.

It was Kev but it’s hard to look past Rodri for me now.

Why has nobody mentioned Jordan Ibe?

Erling doesn’t have the technical ability of other top rated players

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

The best player will be Endrick. Technically from a different generation but he'll eclipse Donatello and make Haaland look like Lukaku.

Wondered how long it take for our resident ‘Haaland is shit’ merchants to appear.

I think it becomes a little about what you prefer in football. I look at rodders now and see the complete footballer. His availability is unmatched. He has an ability to maintain calmness which I’ve not seen before. He scores as well. I’ve not seen another player in this tournament that comes anywhere near him.
