Carlo Ancelotti can no longer turn a blind eye to the poor form of his number 9. However, the Real Madrid coach is not making this an isolated case.
Kylian Mbappé is currently going through the most complicated period since the start of his career. Last Wednesday, the 25-year-old striker completely missed his Champions League match against Liverpool.
Carlo Ancelotti recognizes that his number 9 is in poor form, but refuses to make a specific case of it. “Mbappé's problem is the problem we all have, we can't show our best version. It's not just him, it's a whole team that fails to show continuity in its best version. explained the Italian technician this Saturday afternoon at a press conference.
Ancelotti does not isolate Mbappé
The “Mister” emphasizes that Mbappé’s statistics are not so shameful. “It’s not just one player’s problem. We will try to progress and Mbappé's idea is the same as all of us. He's new here and he's adapting, he's already scored nine goals and made assists. Can he play better? Yes, but we can all do it and we must do it,” underlines the former Paris Saint-Germain coach.
Sunday, at 4:15 p.m., Real Madrid will host Getafe on the fifteenth day of La Liga. A victory for the Merengue club would allow it to regain the lead in the standings, since FC Barcelona lost to everyone's surprise (1-2) against Las Palmas this Saturday afternoon.
