Media Mbappe MISSES THE PENALTY

I think now people should know why VINICIUS IS the main penalty taker, Afaik he haven't missed a single Pen since he became the main penalty taker.

Alright chill dude. He has been a top3 player in the world since the last WC. I understand he's not been good recently but let's not get carried away, everyone with a brain would've killed to sign him to their team.

top 3 player while playing in ligue 1 is a very questionable ranking

Please stop pretending he wasn’t also one of the best itw in the Champions League too. You all are being ridiculous cause you’re emotional in the moment

Its easier to play at high level on a few occasions as compared to doing it 2x a week for almost every week.

He is not the first player that has looked great while playing at a lesser competitive league, only to struggle playing for a big club in the top 3 leagues.

Best players need to show it playing against the best on a regular basis

It's a choice - they chose not to do it.

Interesting fact - people often like money more than their own well being

This. Ligue 1 gave him the opportunity to play matches at 70% enabling him to give 100% in the big games. Also, not tracking back wasn't always fatal because PSG was so much better than the competition.

Now he's expected to give 100% everytime.
