Pascal Dupraz appreciates Kylian Mbappé, but he also knows how to pull his ears when the situation is right. This Saturday in the Grandes Gueules du Sport on RMCthe former Toulouse coach spoke about the French star’s last weeks. If he sees Mbappé succeeding in the number 9 position at Real Madrid, he also criticized him for his communication and his poorly synchronized statements. For him, the 2018 world champion even “screw our mouths” at some point.
“He was welcomed like few players at the biggest club in the world, with a full stadium. For me, he no longer touched Earth, he was irrational in his way of doing things and expressing himself, with his communication. He was someone completely different, almost God, the God of football, and so he fell back to EarthJudge Dupraz. He had extenuating circumstances, because in the best club in the world, it’s not just him, and he didn’t play in his best position either. So, I tell myself that this redemption will be beneficial because thanks to Ancelotti, the quality of the club and that of his teammates, Mbappé will learn to play number 9. However, you cannot tell me that he has succeeded in everything, he made fun of us. It was condescending, at one point he said “I’m coming to the French team but I don’t give a damn about what’s said”. Do you realize that? He is captain of the France team.» He surely preaches to more than one person who is convinced.
