Real Madrid claimed a convincing 0-4 win over Osasuna. However, the game left a bittersweet taste in the mouth for many, especially in regard to Kylian Mbappé's performance. Despite the result, the start of the match was marked by hesitation by the Whites and a worrying lack of control by Carlo Ancelotti. However, a brilliant performance by Vinícius Júnior ended up tipping the balance in favor of Los Merengues.
While Vinícius excelled, the star who should have stolen the show, Kylian Mbappé, once again went unnoticed and failed to live up to expectations. Since his arrival at Real Madrid, Mbappé's performance has left much room for improvement and criticism hasn't been long in coming. Not only that: Edu Aguirre has also revealed a secret about his relationship with his teammates that hasn't gone unnoticed.
Due to the enormous pressure, Mbappé hasn't been able to adapt to Carlo Ancelotti's tactical plans. He often seems lost on the field, unable to find a clear position, too disconnected from his teammates. Added to this are the words of Edu Aguirre, who has confessed that, for now, his integration in the locker room is far from ideal.
Edu Aguirre Tells the Truth about Mbappé and the Madrid Locker Room: "I Have..."
Edu Aguirre, a journalist from El Chiringuito, has exclusively revealed details that have exposed Kylian Mbappé's situation in the Real Madrid locker room. According to Edu Aguirre, Mbappé is still a born goalscorer, with the ability to score 50 goals a season. However, his performance at Real Madrid is far from expectations and there's a reason.
"Mbappé is a 50-goal player. They will get there; in fact, there's no doubt that he has more goals than Vinícius. But I have the feeling that they don't play with him. Whenever they could pass the ball, they prefer not to," said Edu Aguirre to everyone's surprise.
This fact by Edu Aguirre reveals the problems that Mbappé is tackling at Santiago Bernabéu. The arrival of the Frenchman to Real Madrid, initially presented as the great solution, hasn't been as positive as many thought. In the near future, it seems that the challenge for Mbappé will be to improve his connection with the rest of the squad. That is, if he wants to be the player that everyone expects.
