Daniel Riolo considers that Kylian Mbappé must be repositioned on the left flank
Kylian Mbappé was not at his best on Saturday during PSG’s short success against Nantes (2-1), for the 15th round of Ligue 1. Convinced that he does not have the qualities to shine at the center of the Ile-de-France attack, Daniel Riolo is campaigning for Kylian Mbappé to be repositioned on the left flank, starting Wednesday for the clash against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.
“Mbappé is not a 9! »
“We were really on a 4-3-3 against Nantes. Barcola played in the position that is normally that of Mbappé and he had a rather good match by offering a lot of solutions. He doesn’t dare enough yet but his match is positive. This 4-3-3 purred a bit and I’m not convinced by certain positions. In Dortmund, will Luis Enrique play with Mbappé in 9? Honestly, I don’t hope so”he analyzed on Saturday in After Foot.
“ I want Gonçalo Ramos in 9 and a guy on the right whether it’s Kang-in Lee or Randal Kolo Muani. In the middle, Warren Zaire-Emery has returned so we can imagine that he will start in Dortmund. We will have a team with probably Ugarte, Vitinha and Zaire-Emery. I hope that we will have Mbappé in his preferred position and that we will stop the madness of wanting to make him play 9″, he insisted. An opinion shared by our consultant Kevin Diaz: “I don’t like Mbappé in 9 with the ball. He doesn’t have a header, he doesn’t have a good back to the game. He’s a player who has to run away and get deep.“added the consultant.
