His own explanation why until now the Kylian Mbappe has not helped Real as much as expected gave o Karim Benzema. The French forward is the second top scorer in the history of the “queen”, he was a teammate of the 25-year-old ace in the national team and his own opinion is of great importance.
“The problem for me is that Mbappe is not a centre-forward. And in France all the times he played as ‘9’ he was not good, it is not his position. The thing is that on the left, where he is playing, there is another player at the same level, Vinicius. And you can’t put Vinny on the right or center forward, because he makes the difference on the left“, emphasized the 35-year-old ace.
“Let’s see how Ancelotti will deal with this issue. I don’t think he will move Vinicius, he is the best in the world in his position at the moment. Mbappe should get it into his head that he has to play as a centre-forward and forget the left winger position. He was very good in that position, but now he has to perform somewhere else“, he added.
“He knows there is a lot of pressure at Real, if you don’t score for 2-3 games they will kill you. He will have to learn to live with it and manage this pressure. They got him to score and he can do that. He must not lay down his arms“, he concluded.
