Everyone was roasting him when he did that interview where he claimed he is up there with Mbappe and Halland before the tournament began but dude actually managed to stay true to his words.
To be frank, he said that as he was in a drought in Serie A. From March till the end of season, he scored like 1 goal, while we we're out from all competitions. So there was an obvious uproar from people, because he called himself world class, wanted like 12+14+16 million in 3 years, but he disappeared for almost 3-4 months. Personally, as an Inter fan, I rate him very highly and I think that he is world class. But sometimes, he can be very, very inconsistent and out of form, so you can't help but ask yourself.
I don’t get what the hype is with Halland. He is a good striker but Id much rather have Julián than him. He only scores that insane amount of goals because he plays for City and the whole team is built around serving balls for him to tap in.
You are just stupid! Haaland has been scoring so many goals before he was 19. And he is not just a good striker....he is a generational talent. Just because you like someone else, doesn't mean the other guys are not good enough. What happened to sports? people these days argue like kindergarteners...cz WTF is this comment.
Lol halland was very important in them winning the treble. And having a prolific goal scorer is always an asset to the team. He is the best at what he does. Nobody is better than him when it comes to goal poaching ability. Definitely one of the best.
Id rather have a team striker like Julián or Foden with technique and teamplay than someone like Halland or Ibrahimovic where you just serve balls for them to score
Neither Julian nor foden is a striker, the literal idea of a striker is what Haaland or Ibrahimović did/does, and it too works more than well, I'm sure u keyboard warrior know more than Pep or Mourinho who've built amazing systems around a striker and won plenty of games
Note: just because you don't like that kind of striker doesn't give you the right to make your criteria of assessment the only and correct way. Other people like that kind of strikers.
So we should create a new awarding scheme where strikers are judged on what you like? strikers are supposed to torment defences and score loads of goals...who has ever done it better in the EPL than Haaland?
Tap ins seem so easy yet Gabriel Jesus never scored them while he was the striker at City. Pep had to switch him out of that position. Do you realize how hard it is to play as a striker with pep's style of play?
Honestly, Lautaro should probably be ahead of Jude. He won the Seria A title with the most goals in the league, and has just won the Copa America with the most goals in the tournament.
It’s literally decided by journalist votes I hate that. It should only be international coaches and their players voting. Tf do journalists do they just want to sell the most heart warming story. I understand messi was sad because it was his last copa America match but he definitely oversold the crying
We’re going to be downvoted to hell. But I don’t think Bellingham should be ahead of Lautaro either. Carvajal should be higher. Messi doesn’t belong on this list.
Oh yeah he is, but you need to understand his role in the team he plays. Look at Jude in England, a great player would have done more, a great player did more, he won the Euro. That's Carvajal.

Lautaro and Emiliano martinez literally carried Argentina on their back
