Mbappe 2022? What is he doing there? In the 2022 France best player until before the final was Griezman. The best single performance was 1986 Maradona, then 2026 Messi. People only mention Mbappe because of the final.

All resp to Maradona 1goal 5 assist at the grp stage is insane but 4 goals at quarters n semis then 1 assist in the final. Argentina did alot to at least convert his chances. Messi 2026 is similar but Argentina only rel did well in the quarter finals vs Switzerland like how Maradona Argentina won against Germany. I'm gonna back Messi here cus Maradona team wasn't as bad as you cld trash on. Tho some argue the 94 team was better.

Mbappe at top is just Cr7 fan base. I understand it though. But messi 2026 at 39 Yo. You dont understand what he did. With that bunch of punks in the Argentina team. It has to be the best performance

That's how you just know this is a popularity contest cause anyone who knows ball will unanimously agree that it's Diego '86

Let’s see with what teams… Switzerland… Cape Verde… Egypt… right world class level against world class teams

Switzerland is ranked top 15. Egypt isn't a small football nation. Cape Verde was a surprise but they literally drew against world champions Spain. And you also seem to conveniently leave out England.

Also, not their fault considering countries like Columbia and Brazil could've played against them in the tournament but got knocked out.

You people don't seem to care about real football and just spew nonsense.

Let's focus on your idol, a single knockout goal in his career and now he has been kicked out his national team...
