The tense situation between Didier Deschamps and Kylian Mbappé in the French team was discussed this Wednesday evening on TPMP by Gilles Verdez.

The victory against Belgium (2-0) on Monday evening did not remove all doubts regarding the French team. Touche Pas à Mon Poste discussed the Kylian Mbappé case this Wednesday evening, with information presented as exclusive by Cyril Hanouna.

After addressing the conflict between the Bondynois and PSG regarding certain unpaid bonuses, it was Gilles Verdez who took over to talk about the Blues. “There are two problems, the problem is with his teammates, explains the former journalist from Le Parisien about Mbappé. He’s taking a lot of the spotlight, and his teammates are a bit fed up because he’s not performing as expected at all, and because he’s not performing as well as he could with his statements.”

“Nothing is going well in the French team”

“There are two types of statements that didn’t go down well. Before the match, the captain of the French team said: ‘I don’t give a damn about people’. That caused a lot of trouble.”confided Gilles Verdez about Mbappé’s comments, who mentioned before France-Italy the possible hostile reception at the Parc des Princes.

“The second salvo, which is much more pernicious, is on Sunday between the two matches where he calls into question the tactical work accomplished by Didier Deschamps and the staff, continued the former sports journalist turned columnist.
This is the first time that there has been this quasi-official break, because the statements came out (in L’Equipe, editor’s note), which could explain why he was not put in the team on Monday against Belgium, and which creates a real clash. When the captain cuts the coach, it means that nothing is going well in the French team.
