Erling Haaland vs Kylian Mbappé — Who is better?

[Rajdeep]

Alright folks, this debate has been running for a while now, but with both players hitting new levels recently, it feels like the perfect time to revisit it.

Erling Haaland:

A pure goal-machine with outrageous efficiency​

Physically dominant, almost impossible to stop inside the box​

Thriving in a possession-heavy, chance-laden system​

Already breaking scoring records like it’s nothing​

Kylian Mbappé:

Electric pace, elite dribbling, and a more complete attacking profile​

Can create, score, and dictate play​

Proven on the biggest international stage​

More versatile in terms of position and tactical role​

​

So who you think is a better footballer at present and if you could build a team around ONE of them for the next 7–10 years, who are you picking and why?

Haaland just took his team to FIFA world cup by beating Italy

Haaland is a pure typical English style striker. Big, strong, great in the air, holds up the ball well.

Mbappe has far more all round ability, he can create, dribble past players, more pace and has done it as the biggest stage.

I agree, but with add that Brauten (Haaland) has extreme pace as well, around 36 km/h as his top speed, a bit behind Mbappe of course, but still crazy for his hight (1,95) and weight (94 kgs).

And to See Norway crush Italy in that second half at San Siro was probably one of the best halves I have ever seen from Norway, and I dare to say that we have one of the best attacks in the World right now with Haaland, Sørloth, Nusa and Bob. Looking forward to the WC (but injures is always a concern).

I would say, Haaland is a better striker but Mbappe is overall is a better footballer.

Mbappe is a far better allround footballer.

Mbappe is a far better allround footballer.

Far better? How?

Haaland is consistently outscoring him in club games.

Now even in Internationals( FIFA Qualifiers), he is the highest goal scorer from Europe.

Mbappe meanwhile not even best player for RM and busy sue'ing PSG.

Haaland is a CF.

Mbappe can play anywhere in the forward line.

Hws been incredible since 17 -18 years of age. And starred for feance in the 2018 world cup as well.
