Carlo Ancelotti comments that Kylian Mbappe is dealing with the same issue as his Real Madrid colleagues due to the concerning performance of the French forward.
Mbappe has been receiving negative feedback for his underwhelming displays since moving to Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain in a highly anticipated free transfer during the summer. Some believed the 25-year-old would boost a team that was victorious in La Liga and the Champions League the previous season, but others argue that his arrival has disrupted the team’s flow, leading to their current struggles in both competitions.
The suggestion that Mbappe’s underwhelming performances may be due to being played as a centre-forward instead of his preferred left attacking position has been mentioned, with France coach Didier Deschamps implying that the national team captain might be experiencing mental hardships. The attacker’s predicament was accurately captured when he failed to score a penalty in the second half of his team’s 2-0 defeat against Liverpool in the Champions League, shortly before he was spotted standing alone in the players’ tunnel.
Nevertheless, Ancelotti argues that Mbappe’s difficulties are not unique, stating to reporters: “The issue facing Mbappe is the same issue facing all of us.” We are striving to discover our optimal self. My players and I. The issue lies with the team as a whole, rather than with individual players, as they have not been able to maintain consistency. Improvement is a collective responsibility; we need to make every effort to enhance our situation. Mbappe has netted nine goals, has positively influenced our game with assists- He has room for improvement, but so do we all.
He stated that he knows he needs to improve, as does everyone else. We should keep backing him, have patience, and view it as a group issue rather than a personal one. The team’s performance in La Liga has significantly improved in the last two matches, although it is true that we could have appeared stronger against Liverpool. We need to consider that there are multiple players absent. Gradually, they are making progress. Rodrygo will come back tomorrow and we need to have patience.
The attacker aims to score when his team faces Getafe in La Liga on Sunday.
