Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti – ‘Kylian Mbappe has the same problem as the others’
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has asked for more patience with Kylian Mbappe, who has yet to live up to expectations since joining the club. His missed penalty against Liverpool only increased the pressure, but the Italian insists it is a collective issue.
The main topic of the press conference was the poor form of Kylian Mbappé, who has scored two goals in his last nine games. Ancelotti was asked about his play.
“The problem that Mbappe has is the problem that we all have. We are looking for our best version. Me and my players. THE problem is with the team and not with the individual players, who have failed to achieve continuity. We must do everything possible to improve, it is not an individual problem. Mbappé has scored nine goals, he has contributed to our play and provided assists. He can play better, but we can all do it.”
Ancelotti focused on patience and the idea that the collective will correct their individual problems.
“He is aware that he has to do better, but he and everyone. We must continue to support him, remain patient and think that it is a collective problem, not an individual problem. The team dynamics in La Liga have improved a lot in the last two games, it is true that we could have looked better against Liverpool. We have to take into account that there are many players missing. Little by little they recover. Rodrygo will be back tomorrow and we have to be patient.'
