Christophe Dugarry, a former France international and World Cup winner, has recently voiced his concerns about Kylian Mbappe’s performances. Despite Mbappe’s impressive statistics and goal-scoring records, Dugarry believes there are several key areas where the Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid star needs to improve.
Dugarry’s Critique
In an interview with RMC Sport, Dugarry acknowledged that Mbappe’s start to the season has been statistically successful, with the young forward scoring in his first match and netting a double in another. However, Dugarry pointed out that these numbers do not fully reflect the quality of Mbappe’s overall performance.
“Mbappe, despite significant statistics and goals, has been average and insufficient in the game for a very long time,” Dugarry stated. He elaborated that Mbappe needs to enhance several aspects of his game to reach his full potential.
Areas for Improvement
Dugarry highlighted several areas where Mbappe needs to improve:
– Role as an Attacker: Dugarry believes Mbappe needs to develop his role as a forward more effectively.
– Duels and Physical Challenges: The ability to hold his ground in physical duels is an area where Mbappe could grow.
– Heading Game: Improving his effectiveness in aerial duels is another point of concern.
– Technical Quality: Dugarry mentioned that Mbappe’s technical skills have been lacking, making him less influential on the pitch.
Despite his remarkable goal-scoring ability and impressive statistics, Kylian Mbappe has faced criticism from Christophe Dugarry regarding his overall game performance. As Mbappe continues his career with Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid, it will be crucial for him to address these areas of improvement to enhance his impact on the field and silence critics like Dugarry.
