The Croatian international does not seem to realize that Kylian Mbappé is going through a huge crisis of confidence.
Catastrophic. The term would not be too strong to summarize in a single word Kylian Mbappé's performance on Wednesday evening on the Anfield lawn. Against Liverpool, on the occasion of the fifth day of the Champions LeagueReal Madrid's number 9 missed everything, including a penalty which could have allowed his team to equalize.
Luka Modric, however, does not really seem worried about his partner.
“Mbappé is pretty good. He is good in training, has confidence, judged the 2018 Ballon d'Or in the mixed zone. Sometimes things don't go the way you want them to, like the penalty. But I'm sure he will do what is expected of him.” said the Croatian international in the mixed zone.
Mbappé, Ancelotti more lucid than Modric
For his part, Carlo Ancelotti recognized the complicated passage his star striker went through. “When you are a striker, you want to score and have confidence,” underlined the Italian technician. I think that for Mbappé, it’s a difficult moment. We will support him and give him love”promised the Italian technician at a press conference.
On Sunday, Real Madrid will host Getafe on the fifteenth day of Liga. Will Carlo Ancelotti dare to do without the services of Kylian Mbappé at the kick-off of this meeting? The “Mister”, who would be in the hot seat, could opt for this strong choice.
