4 Reasons Why Kylian Mbappe must join Liverpool rather than Real Madrid

For most players, Real Madrid and Barcelona are dream clubs to play for but they're also a lot of negatives that must be taken into account before making the move. 

A typical example is Eden Hazard who is arguably the greatest player in Chelsea history and one of the best players in Premier League history. It was a very bad decision to switch from Chelsea to Real Madrid and the player has clearly admitted. Hazard retired at the age of 32. 

Kylian Mbappe is without doubt a super player but, he needs to understand that Liverpool offers him a better chance to reach his full potential than Real Madrid and here are the reasons why:

A. The Premier League is more competitive than La Liga and Liverpool is the best place for him- Apart from Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, most people don't even bother watching other Spanish teams in the La Liga except their competing in the Champions League, Europa League or the Conference League.

Kylian Mbappe needs to join Liverpool a team everybody watches and prove his mantle as one of Europe's finest players' and not Real Madrid who can win League and European trophies with him or without him.

B. Vinicius Jr currently occupies Mbappe's favoured position- Kylian Mbappe might be capable of playing across the front three, but his most effective position remains the left wing or left forward role which enables him his marker with frightening pace, cut into striking position before hitting the ball hard with his right foot. 

At Real Madrid, Vinicius Jr currently occupies that role, and the Brazilian is one of the best in the business. At Liverpool, Mbappe will only be contesting with an inferior player in Luis Diaz.

C. Liverpool's game plan fits Mbappe better than Real Madrid- Liverpool's favoured tactics under Jurgen Klopp is 4-3-3 which means 4 defenders at the back, three in midfield and 3 in attack. The three attackers are allowed to seamlessly interchange during transition and score or assist one another. Mbappe's defensive game will further be improved by Jurgen Klopp who demands Liverpool attackers press relentlessly from the top and if not recovered must drop deep to defend.

D. Liverpool need him more than Real Madrid- Liverpool need a superstar like Kylian Mbappe to further improve their team and compete with arguably the greatest club in Premier League history- Manchester City. Real Madrid meanwhile has the purchasing power and glamour to sign whoever they want. Kylian Mbappe will be one of the stars at Real Madrid but Liverpool, he always be remembered as one of the greatest of all time like Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino or Sadio Mane.

Mbappe will be making a decision that could make or break him. Moving to Real Madrid on paper looks like a very good idea but in reality, he might face obstacles like Eden Hazard who is currently heralded as the greatest player in Chelsea history. 

The message is simple, if Mbappe goes to Liverpool they will build him a stature when he retires but if he joins Real Madrid, he will just be among the countless players who have played for them and won the Champions League.

A Better Nigeria: What the Government must do to end food crises

What is wrong with Nigeria and its people? A sane question most people have asked for decades but little have figured out the problems. Those who have the amicable solution and well placed in positions to truly effect change are either been rigged out, threatened or even killed.   Tragic you would say, but there's more to the complex web of Nigeria's challenges and food crises is one of them which the incumbent president must deal with immediately.  Before taking over the mantle of leadership, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu made a series of promises and swiftly took action by removing fuel subsidy in his first day in office. Taking that action was bold and cold because no alternative was given.  The effect was an immediate increase in fuel which resulted in an increase in the cost of transportation of both perishable and imperishable goods. Businesses which where reliant on generators for power packed up while well established businesses were forced to retrench workers or pa...

One trick pony: How Manchester City star Erling Haaland can be stopped

When it comes to consistency of goals scored, no other striker delivers like Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland. The Norwegian's an extraordinary player, a poacher of goals that should be the model for future strikers.  The Norwegian star is currently the quickest player in Premier League history to score 50 league goals, shattering Andrew Cole's previous record by 17 games after scoring the opening goal in Manchester City's 1-1 draw with Liverpool.  His conversion rate is bone chilling and definitely worrisome for opposition coaches who always seems confused on what must be done to stop Haaland. Stopping the 23-year-old is hard but possible.  Fact; Haaland do not score goals outside the 18-yard box. Since joining Manchester City from Borrusia Dortmund, Haaland has only managed to shoot 10 times outside the box and scored just once.  Why? He is an instinctive goal poacher whose short burst opens up space for him to shoot accurately to goal. His biggest strength...
