While he is the captain and also the star of the team, Kylian Mbappé was below par during the last match of the Blues at the Euro. Against Portugal, he was extremely disappointing and even received the catastrophic score of 2 from the daily newspaper L’Equipe. The criticism is raining down on him at the moment.
Given this poor performance, should he be relegated to the bench for the next match against Spain? Adil Rami, the former international, had to answer the question. And for him, the answer is obvious.
Deschamps keeps faith in Mbappé
“We can’t do without Mbappé. He is irreplaceable, he said on TF1. For me, he is a player with such talent that he is capable of making the difference at any moment. Of course, he is far from his usual level, but I still believe in him.”
Barring an injury, the Bondy player should keep his place in the French attack. Didier Deschamps, the coach, has also half-heartedly acknowledged that he does not plan to do without his star: “Of course Kylian is capable of doing more. He knows it. But we must not forget where he comes from. He had a complicated end to the season. And he had his trauma with his shock to the nose. Despite that, he assumes his role as leader. And with Kylian, France will always perform better.”
