Man, that is awesome. I’m a graphic designer who also loves sports but I haven’t put the two together in a long time.

Can you talk a little bit about the process that led you to working with the Ringer?

Mbappe did not lead France to the World Cup, just like Ronaldinho did not lead Brazil to the World Cup in 2002. The teams have insanely deep squads. Now that I think of it, he won’t be better than Ronaldinho even in his prime.

Mbappe is a spoiled brat who was given far too much leading him to believe a person is bigger than the club. Dude is complaining having to play with Messi and Neymar....MESSI AND NEYMAR FFS!

“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

Tired of this diva. Hasn't done anything noticeable since 2018 outside of Ligue 1 yet carries himself like he's Cristiano, Halaand has overtaken him as the future face of football.

That ego can't take the fact he is number 3 of their 3 men striking unit, and the fact the other 2 are also far more beloved. Fun player to watch, but not a likable personality.

He wants to score goals. He sees Haaland being the most talked about young striker while he's at PSG getting outshone by Messi and Neymar. He wants what Haaland has, he wants to be the most talked about player in football and monopolize the goals that his club scores.


M'bappe vs Halaand looks like the future Messi Vs Ronaldo, and yeah it makes sense he asks out during a time when Halaand is being called all kind of monikers because of how viciously he's tearing apart the Premier League. Goes to show that unless you're going to be winning Champions Leagues it's going to be almost impossible to be truly relevant in a league like Ligue 1.

Thank you. I've send them promos over the years and also worked for Grantland in the past (Bill Simmons previous site/annual).

Awesome. Bill’s writing style is probably my favorite across all sports

Congrats! Your style is pretty unique and catch the eyes when I scroll on The Ringer. It's nice to see some illustrators around here.

A Brazilian fan addressed that in the transfer thread:

Mbappe needs to go to a bigger club to make his resume . No one cares about Ligue 1
