Considered a world reference for an entire generation, Kylian Mbappé is not yet unanimous among observers. The personality of Bondy’s prodigy, combined with his powerful play and his obsession with statistics, contrasts with some of his predecessors. If the French striker also personifies the evolution of football, Didier Roustan explained that he was not necessarily touched by the PSG star when he watched her play.

Mbappé, an absolute crack but “not a genius” according to Roustan

“For me, Mbappé is not a football genius, launched Didier Roustan in remarks made on France Bleu in the show 100% PSG. It’s an absolute cracker. A man of his time. For me, football is about emotion. I really like Mbappé and hats off to everything he does, but I wouldn’t pay to see Mbappé, I would pay a ticket to see Javier Pastore play. »

Didier Roustan continued his reflection by projecting himself more generally on the Paris Saint-Germain team, regretting the recent departures of players like Marco Verratti, Neymar or Angel Di Maria. “For what they’re trying to do, for the team in question I wish them the best but I’m not going to pay to see this team. »

It didn’t take much to see the web burst into flames after this clear-cut opinion. To the point that the journalist, challenged by certain vehement comments, did not clarify his remarks on the social network X.
