Ronaldinho in his prime, probably Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo. But with these players, there are no solutions.&quot;If Mbappe can square you up one-v-one and you can't defend against him, if he can run in behind, if he can receive the ball between the lines and shoot from distance and score a header like he's done tonight, it's very difficult to limit a player like this.&quot;At big tournaments, you need players who can win you games and all the big teams have a player that can do that.&quot;Fellow pundit Alan Shearer appeared unimpressed with France though, as he stated:&quot;I know they've won comfortably tonight but the deeper they go into the tournament, in the midfield, I just think have they got enough experience, enough ability in there?&quot;But, look, they've got Mbappe, so they've got a chance.&quot;B/R Football@brfootballKylian Mbappé picks up right where he left off in 2018 131621327Kylian Mbappé picks up right where he left off in 2018 💫 https://t.co/ibZun5K6dv
