Mbappé was rated 84 in FIFA 18, and he's sure to be closer to 90 in FIFA 19. So how could he possible be underrated?

Well, really it boils down to one thing: Neymar. Given Mbappé's extremely impressive first season at PSG - and World Cup win - is he really a lesser player than Neymar? His Brazilian teammate is undoubtedly extremely talented but he's also a tad overrated. Neymar is the result of a big personality and over-hype - he spent more time on the floor at the World Cup than Paulo Dybala did on the field.

Mbappé proved at the World Cup that he isn't just a big prospect and good understudy to Neymar - he proved that he is already a world class player and, at least, on the same level as the Brazilian. He scored four goals for France, and 22 for PSG in all competitions. Mbappé should be rated 90, as should his teammate, Neymar.
