The behavior of Kylian Mbappé after his exit at the break on Friday in Monaco was not to the taste of Christophe Dugarry, who also severely criticized Luis Enrique.
Winner 2-0 in the first leg and quiet leader of Ligue 1, PSG nevertheless diffuses a scent of crisis when it comes to meeting Real Sociedad for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Champions League. Consequence of the new Mbappé soap opera. And this time, there is no question of the future of the Bondynois, now sealed. But since he announced his departure, the Bondynois has seen his status called into question by Luis Enrique.
On Friday, the Spanish technician did not hesitate to take him out during the break, causing a real earthquake. And the shocks were all the stronger as the French world champion played the provocation by following the second period of the match in the stands, appearing all smiles and not hesitating to take selfies. A sequence that made Christophe Dugarry hallucinate.
“For the first time at PSG, a coach has the cojones to take him out, because he is not good. For me, Luis Enrique doesn’t like Kylian Mbappé, Kylian Mbappé’s game, he doesn’t like his qualities and his attitude on the pitch, he first said at the microphone of RMC. Luis Enrique, he is constantly provocative. What he’s doing is a shame. But what shocks me is the explanation after the match. But man, in three months maybe you’re gone, you’re not planning anything. Is your team better without Mbappé? Prove it to us. »
“He has no right to do what he did”
And for the former Bordeaux player, Kylian Mbappé is having an ordinary season and Luis Enrique has nothing to do with it. “I think that Kylian Mbappé, despite his statistics which are good, is having a very average season and I think that the person responsible is also Luis Enrique. He failed to use such a formidable player as he should. By making all his changes of tactics and partners, Mbappé may be lost”he assured.
However, the attitude of the Parisian striker is just as problematic in the eyes of the 98 world champion. “What Kylian Mbappé is doing is a scandal, he thundered. He is captain of the team, captain of the France team. Luis Enrique has the right to release him because his performances are not good. Kylian Mbappé has no right to do what he did, these selfies, the victory lap, what is this circus? »
