Live football Emmanuel Petit: Mbappe wants to be number one like Ronaldo. He may have a big ego, but it shouldn`t upset the balance in the locker room
Emmanuel Petit said that Kylian Mbappe`s personal ambitions should not interfere with the French team.
When France lost to Switzerland [at Euro 2020], there were disputes between the players and even between families in the stands. There were disputes over free kicks, penalties, etc.
I understand that Mbappe is an outstanding player with the right skills and qualities, he wants to be number one like Cristiano Ronaldo. I appreciate it, but he also needs to understand that his ambition should not be a problem for his team.
His ambition is to help his team achieve their goals, and at the same time, it will benefit him as well. If Mbappe understands that he is in the service of the team, this will be a great statement for the team.
He may have a big ego, it doesn`t matter - you need a big ego on the field to win tournaments. But this should not upset the balance of the team in the locker room. If you are in the dressing room and you feel that one player is giving too much trouble to his me, me, me, that will be a problem.
We need to find a balance between his ambitions and the ambitions of the team, " said the former French football player.
