In the midst of a period of doubt, Kylian Mbappé was able to realize this Saturday what the state of mind of Real Madrid supporters was about him.
Several months after his triumphant presentation in a Santiago Bernabeu full as an egg to come and welcome him, Kylian Mbappé has been experiencing very different moments for several weeks in the Real Madrid confines. Morally not at best for various reasons, the former Paris Saint-Germain player fails to be as decisive and impactful as he and the Madrid supporters hoped. This famous Merengue public, however, chose to still support him.
A not so obvious choice when you know the extreme demands that reign at all levels when it comes to Real Madrid. Saturday at the Bernabeu, Kylian Mbappé was on the pitch during Madrid's big success against Osasuna (4-0), but he did not live up to expectations. Once again, his overall performance was disappointing and while Vinicius Junior scored a hat-trick and Jude Bellingham finally found the net after six months of drought, the Frenchman remained silent in front of the opposing goal.
Morale and a level to regain
However, the fans decided to push and encourage him. On several occasions, the stands of the Santiago Bernabeu rang out with the name of the French world champion. Especially when Mbappé missed opportunities. An important mark of support for the morale of a player whose real source of his less good performance which is starting to persist, remains as vague as it is mysterious. At Real Madrid, the Bondynois' low morale is unofficially admitted.
The fact remains that the more time passes, the more the credit and indulgence from which Kylian Mbappé still benefits will diminish. It is up to him and those who can help him to find the key to renewal. We must quickly find this solution, otherwise we risk seeing our Madrid dream end in black pudding, like a Michael Owen, a Kaka or even an Eden Hazard.
