His match against Liverpool at Anfield had a negative impact on him, as it was a major night for him, marking his first real test as a Real Madrid player. In the absence of Vinรญcius, Mbappรฉ was the main attacking option, playing in his preferred position on the left wing. However, he was unable to impose himself as required.
He missed a crucial penalty kick and was unable to make any key decisions throughout the match. Despite this, the senior management at Chamartรญn still trusts him, but there is growing concern within the club about his level.
In France, some have seized this moment to criticize him. The prestigious newspaper โLโรquipeโ spoke to someone close to the player, who linked Mbappรฉโs form to Real Madridโs style of play.
โToni Kroos has not been replaced, Luka Modriฤ no longer has the same physical ability, Tchouamรฉni and Camavinga are not passers. As for Jude Bellingham? He doesnโt convince me, and heโs not Neymar either,โ the source said.
โMbappรฉ needs partners to help him execute his moves, like he did with Neymar and Verratti at PSG, or Griezmann with the French national team,โ the source added.
However, this view is not shared by coach Carlo Ancelotti or club president Florentino Pรฉrez. In fact, both Ancelotti and Pรฉrez hope that Mbappรฉ does not adopt the same mindset expressed by the person close to him.
According to the Spanish newspaper โDefensa Centralโ, Pรฉrez is upset with the statements made by the person close to Mbappรฉ and believes that the French player must adapt to any position and any players, as his idol Cristiano Ronaldo did in the past.
