"Mbappe is no longer scary as before"

Kylian Mbappe has had a busy few months. From Euro 2024, where a broken nose prevented him from performing at his best to this September, when a better performance is still expected, similar to that of Paris Saint-Germain.
In the middle of the international break, Bixente Lizarazu lashed out against the captain of the French national team, whom he no longer sees as fearsome as in the past.
"You can't be insensitive to the feelings of the French team's supporters, to the frustrations they may have, to the questions they may have. You have to try to answer them, give them hope, it's part of the job and the emotional connection you have to have with your fans," he wrote in 'L'Equipe'.
"Perhaps he is less serene than usual, more tense because he is slow to find the best footballing version of himself. Mbappe is no longer as explosive or decisive as he was. He remains a very good scorer, a very good player of course, but he is no longer as scary as before," he added.
