    Whole sub says this he needs to make runs in the box and operate centrally passes will come if there’s no rw he sometimes can play on right hand side but his job as a 9 to play more centrally he has the speed to quickly occupy those spaces in the box if he does it .

    Even thierrry bloody henry can see our supposed #9 not making runs into the box regularly. Well hopefully he changes that in the coming games.

  3. Henry is right, if he made these runs consistently he’d find himself scoring many more goals. We know he’s world class and can score from outside of the box, but that’s not what we need from him.

    The two times he actually looked dangerous that night were when he scored and when he received that ball from jude and neuer saved it. Really tells you a lot.

  5. It’s what our coaches should be telling him. Want to play ST? Then play like one. It’s not that deep.

  6. I think he needs more time to adapt to the 9 role. Coaches giving him freedom for the buildup hasn’t helped him adapt either. You have Guler, Bellingham and Vini for that. I think the coach should restrict him to the 9/poacher space to draw out the defenders. He has the qualities of an elite 9 but he plays like a false 9/lw.

  7. the whole world makes the same remarks, seems like the only one who isn’t aware of this is mbappe himself or he’s just willingly choosing not play as a proper 9. at this point everything that should be said is said and we just need to wait and see if he adapts and changes his game. if not we are stuck with a huge burden for the next 6 or more years that’ll cause more harm than good to the team.

  8. We know he is not a 9 naturally we have to find a 9 instead of blaming him for not being what he is not… If barca put yamal on number 9 I’m sure they will be shouting at him also it’s not the position they are good at the fault is the manager and coaches he can play behind the number 9

  9. What I dont even understand about Mbappe is that nearly most of his goals have come from runs, guler at the start of the season, trent lately passing to his runs, vini trivelas.. yet he insists on waiting outside the box so he can score golazo’s or something, why is he refusing easy tap ins?

  10. its not rocket science, if you are striker you occupy space in box. Mbappe simply can not let go of his winger tendencies

  11. A French Left winger turned striker regularly tries to coach and teach Mbappé every UCL game, still he can’t do this everygame.

    Henry’s position adjustment should be the blueprint for Mbappé, especially the French connection. I mean ffs just get coaching lessons from him if you need

  12. Literally the same thing Henry said last season about Mbappe where he was highlighting the runs Jude was making
