To me, PSG going to the finals and likely going to win it is so dramatic. I can't help but wonder many things;
- What exactly is in the mind of Mbappe, regret or?
- If Mbappe was in PSG, would they have gotten to this stage?
- What if PSG wins the champions league; it will mean that Mbappe didn't only miss the champions league trophy but also missed Ballon d'or.
- If Dembélé was in Barcelona, will he everly be a Ballon d'or candidate?
Football is indeed mysterious.
Dembele has always been a standout player, from his time with Dortmund, to Barcelona and now PSG so you can’t dispute the fact that he could be, all he needed was one excellent season with his club and that is what he will be enjoying now. I don’t think there is anything to regret for Mbappe because even if he doesn’t win the champions league this season it is likely he will anytime soon with Real Madrid.
No he has not been a standout player all the time. That is completely false. He is playing the best season of his career and I think there was only one season that was roughly as good as this one and that is about 10 years ago when he played in the Bundesliga. That season was the reason why Barcelona made of their most expensive transfers ever. The time at Barcelona was a nightmare for him. In his close to 130 La Liga games he scored about as many goals as this season in Ligue 1 alone. That isn't outstanding.
Mbappe should regret that he stayed with PSG for too long. That was a mistake.
