After last season, when Real won almost every game they participated in and didn't lose in La Liga for almost a year, I don't think anyone would have remembered Mbappe. Mbappe's transfer was lobbied personally by Perez and it was immediately written that Ancelotti was not thrilled with such a purchase, but apparently he had no special choice and he is constantly trying to put Mbappe, although you can see that when Mbappe plays, Jude Bellingham somehow gets lost and it seems that the midfield and Vinicius try to play more on Mbappe, who constantly opens up on the flank and tries to escalate the attack, but Mbappe acts very selfishly, almost not giving passes to partners in the penalty area.
Last season Real were lucky with the purchase of Bellingham, but this time with the purchase of Mbappe everything has not worked out so well for Real.
It is just a lack of chemistry and good players playing in positions that they do not play in. Mbappe Is a great player, probably one of the best when it comes to playing on the left wing. But Real Madrid thought that they could transition him into playing as a striker. But that is just not happening, not yet. And by the way, Cristiano Ronaldo was playing in the English Premier League, before he came to Real Madrid. And the English Premier League was a very tough League even back then to play in. But mbappe came from the French league. And the players in La Liga are not as bad as the players in the French league. They do not literally fold in half when a player does a stepover. So maybe he is also finding the competition harder in La Liga. I still believe even though mbappe is finding it hard to settle, he will settle eventually and that is going to be very scary. The question is when?
