Elimination of
Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter -final Following the defeat against Arsenal (1-2) should leave traces in the club's environment. In Spain, obviously, this underperformance is perceived as a historic failure for a club subscribed to the last square for more than a decade.
But on the other side of the Pyrenees, the Merengue are not spared. And unsurprisingly, Kylian Mbappé arrives on the front line. While he has long been a defender of the Bondynois, Jérôme Rothen has completely returned his jacket for a year about the attacker.
Mbappé criticized? A world champion goes up to the front.
The RMC consultant does not hesitate to place Mbappé as the first responsible for this failure of Real Madrid. “We're talking about Kylian Mbappé. He arrived in the club of his dreams with the ambition of winning all the trophies, including the Champions League, and to be among the best players in the world to win the Ballon d'Or. Collectively and individually, it's a failure …“, Tonnated the ex French international.
Rothen, his words cash on mbappé
And Rothen to specify his thought: “He will not have the Ballon d'Or this year. It is a bitter failure. He was found at the start of the season attenuating circumstances. It could be given an adaptation time. But when you are Mbappé, the adaptation time is shorter. He has scored a lot of goals, but in the game it's catastrophic. ”
The former Parisian also does not obscure the collective context, but he believes that the attitude of the French has not been the right one.
“The collective is not well oiled. You have to hear yourself better with your partners. He was nonexistent against Arsenal. He should have been nickel at all levels. I find that his attitude is terrible, it does not stick with his statements. It's nothingness, there is nothing. It cannot be told that it is a success. I wish him the best but the balance sheet is horrible this year. »»
