While praising the French striker’s exceptional talent, Carlo Ancelotti also identified areas where the player could still improve to reach his full potential. He does not blame him, moreover, for the missed penalty against Bilbao.
For Ancelotti, Mbappé still has “consistency to find”

A remark which reflects the high expectations placed on the French international, considered one of the best players on the planet. According to Carletto, this consistency could improve as his teammates learn to take advantage of his unique qualities: “He will be even better when his teammates adapt to his great qualities. »
This statement highlights the importance of the collective in individual performance. For an explosive and unpredictable player like Mbappé, a perfect understanding with the rest of the team could make him even more formidable.
Penalties: a matter of motivation
Asked about Mbappé’s poor penalty record, Ancelotti mentioned another aspect of the game: mentality. “The penalty is a question of motivation”, the coach said. He encouraged the former Paris Saint-Germain striker to continue on this path: “Mbappé must keep trying. »
He had already made the same speech after the outing on Basque soil, affirming that he did not have to judge his players on converted or missed penalties.
In the eyes of his coach, Mbappé must therefore still work on psychological aspects to excel in key situations. It also highlights the importance of perseverance and confidence, essential qualities at the highest level.
An increasing intensity at Mbappé
Despite these areas of progress, Carlo Ancelotti did not fail to highlight the recent improvements of the Bondynois. “He has improved in terms of intensity in recent matches,” he noted. This compliment highlights Mbappé’s hard work to raise his level of play, especially in a context where every detail to succeed in integrating into the very demanding Casa Blanca.
Ancelotti still believes in his star
By combining his raw talent, his ability to learn, and the support of his teammates, Kylian Mbappé has what it takes to get back on track and put an end to the difficult period he is going through. Ancelotti’s words, both critical and laudatory, testify to the player’s immense potential and the confidence he has in him. If the Frenchman manages to fill the gaps highlighted by the Madrid coach, he has something to bounce back and with flying colors too.
Carlo Ancelotti, known for his experience and his ability to guide the greatest talents, therefore remains optimistic and sees a bright future for his striker under the Merengue tunic. It remains to be seen whether Mbappé will be able to meet these expectations on the ground.
