Interesting read, Ben! I've written on the subject of Mbappe and his struggles a lot myself and I find your point about him not thinking very interesting. We've seen it many times before but I felt from the very start of the season, the anticipation of doing well was so high that he was just trying too hard instead of trusting his game. Now that it's been a few months it hasn't been as successful as any of us thought, his confidence has taken a huge hit. I think Ancelotti will eventually figure out how to help him and Mbappe will do well. I just hope it's not too late in the season by the time it finally happens.
This was an interesting piece. With everything going on behind the scenes and the weight of a Real Madrid jersey, it’s easy to see why he is struggling at the moment. I do believe he needs to adapt to the no.9 role because Madrid are at their best when Vini is in full flow off the left and he shouldn’t have to make way for Mbappe. However I have hope that Mbappe would come through for Madrid, that level of talent can’t go to waste.
Glad you enjoyed the piece and agreed - with his quality and age, he’s too good not to succeed at Real Madrid. Will be interesting to see how he progresses from here…
