    I sincerely can’t imagine why would anyone make the case for Kane to be even in the top 10 right now. Bellingham is in great form (probably the best form in the world right now), but the season has just started and we should see how it develops for him. As a Brazilian, these debates are particularly annoying. Neymar and Vini both had stretches in which they performed as well or better than Bellingham is doing right now in the last few seasons and they never got this level of insane hype this quickly, with Vini failing to get even to the shortlist of 12 players of the best last year (while Declan Rice did). The way in which English-speaking media shapes the debates and perceptions is insane.

    I don’t think either are most people’s first pick in either position. You go with Haaland for a 9 and Messi, Mbappe for that 9.5

    After decades of English fans and media overhyping our playing… are we finally in a position where we can actually rightfully call ourselves the favourites heading into the euros?

      No because two players don’t make a squad. France is still stronger overall.

      England maybe 2nd or 3rd favourites on paper.

        This is why you won’t win and why Mbappe is the best in the world. (apart from Messi who people have forgot about, but who hasn’t stopped performing since winning the world cup and putting up motm performances in every single game) Kane won’t show up for England just like he hasn’t apart from scoring a few penalties and none of your players are capable of doing what Mbappe does. Bellingham is your biggest hope seeing he isn’t not afraid of the big stage.

      Ngl ive been in love with maddison since he joined leicester where he instantly became the top scorer for the beginning of the season and I still haven’t seen him ´struggle’ even with spurs where he’s doing even better, I can’t wait to see him play against european giants to see what it takes to recognise him as a legit world class player

    Kane is for sure the best 9, Bellingham best CM but can’t say they are best 2, Mbappe and others still exist, always debatable

      The only thing Mbappe can do that Kane can’t is be very quick. Meanwhile, Kane can do all sorts of things Mbappe can’t. He’s the best player in the world, and it’s just a shame he’s only now getting the respect.

      I’m not saying Haaland is better than Kane but I think it’s a disservice to say that Kane is better than Haaland “for sure”.

        Give most teams the option to loan one of them until the end of the season and I imagine most go Kane. Though I do agree it isn’t a clear choice.

    it’s Mbappè no matter how much some may say otherwise.

    no one else in Europe right now has the combination of goal scoring, creativity, flair, technique, explosiveness and aura like he does at a top level. some may be technically better like Vini, some may more creative than him like a KDB and may be better goal scorers than him like a Haaland but they don’t have it all like he does.

    Well the top 11 are whoever Klopp decides is playing for Liverpool that day. So at best they are 12th and 13th.
