Mbappes got at least a couple steps on Son and his play is generally more aggressive / confident. Sons a good player but not on Mbappes level primarily due to large patches of games where Son goes completely missing and sometimes a liability

Yeah, Son's great.....but can he do it on a dry balmy Monday night against Dijon?
 
Mbappes got a World Cup in addition to his trophies with PSG so… can’t really compare him to any Spur at the moment unfortunately
You can in a one on one basis. You can do it with any player. Compare individual stats for players in similar positions.
You're comparing one spur to the French national team which is obviously not a fair comparison.

Exactly this. A guy who plays for one of the best national teams in the world with great players around him, and also plays for the best team in a much easier league.

VS

A guy who plays for a terrible national team, that he often has to carry.. and plays for a 'top 6' team in a much tougher league.. which he also has to carry at times (when Kane is out for example).

You can't easily compare them.. but if you do. You have to imagine them playing in the same set of conditions.. and in the same environment. And that is tough to do.. but it's a lot closer than you think.

Also.. Mbappe just like almost any other player has patches where he is non existent. E.g 0 goals and 1 assist in the euros, no goals in the Champions League for over a year at one point etc..
