I Always Feel Like The Best Player In The World – Mbappe

Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe has launched a passionate defence of his playing style. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

Denying that his work rate off the ball is an issue for Real Madrid, Mbappe revealed that while he makes up for it with the goals he scores, he still wants to improve when his team is out of possession.

On potentially winning the next Ballon d’Or, the Frenchman added that he always feels like the best player in the world.

His words, “Just me and Vinicius?

Of course we have to improve, that’s completely natural. But I could play the fool and say that I score more goals than the two players you mention (Raphinha and Dembele), and that they should score more, to be like me.

But I want to be smart and say that of course I need to improve, even though I do things that the others [Dembélé and Raphinha] don’t … but I don’t like to make comparisons.

It’s a never-ending debate. Everyone at Real Madrid has to improve in this area, to concede fewer chances.

When you play for Real Madrid, the best club in the world, you’re associated with these awards.

When people see me in the street, a lot of them talk to me about it … I made a lot of history this summer, in the most important competition. But there’s still a long way to go.

Everyone has their own opinion. Some people here will think so, and others won’t. Not everyone has to think like me. This year might be a good one to win the Ballon d’Or, but it’s voted on by journalists, and they’ll choose.

It’s very difficult to answer a question that starts with ‘people say,’ Who says? Everyone says things. I can say things too, about you, it doesn’t mean it’s true. But Mourinho, he’s a guy who knows how to win, how to inspire those around him.

What does improvement in the dressing room mean? It’s the same as last year, just a different coach. I think there’s always been a good atmosphere.”
