In great difficulty for several months, although he is apparently not injured, Kylian Mbappé is undoubtedly hiding a fairly deep problem, which invites Grégory Schneider to remain measured in his criticism.
Something has broken. It is not easy to date the fracture precisely, but since March, or so, Kylian Mbappé has often been a shadow of himself. In difficulty at the end of the season with PSG, suffering at the Euro, the Bondynois is still struggling in this very early adventure with Real Madrid, if we compare his current performances to those of the recent past.
“He is four floors below the player he was at the 2022 World Cup, noted Gregory Schneider on Saturday evening in L’Equipe du Soir. What happened? Did he stop working? No. Does he not care? No. Is he injured? It seems not. So we have to look for an explanation.
Mbappé, “something is happening”
For the journalist from Libération, the problem is not physical, or not only that. “During the Euro, I thought he was injured. It wasn’t just the mask thing. The day before France-Austria, where he broke his nose, he told us: ‘My physique is average, my mental state needs to take over’. We thought it might be his back or his knee… But now, he’s playing every match, Real Madrid is giving him full throttle.”
So if the problem is not physical, it is because the problem lies elsewhere, and that is what is worrying. “Something is happening, something that explains why at 25 his performances are less good than at 24, which is profoundly illogical, which you cannot explain by a football injury.analyzes Gregory Schneider, who urges us not to shoot the ambulance. There is something to understand, I don’t know what, but until we understand it, we must be careful, we must not fall on him. I would like to know.” He is not the only one.
