Mbappe reveals his strategy when facing Messi and Ronaldo

Kylian Mbappe talked about the mental aspect of the game and how he prepares himself for games against probably the two best players of all time in an interview with RMC Sport.

The French star recently bamboozled Barcelona at Camp Nou in the 4-1 riot in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League Quarterfinals with a stunning hat-trick. Mbappe says that you have to believe that you are better than them in order to come out on the top.

“In my head I always tell myself that I am the best,” said Mbappe.

Mbappe also matched Ronaldo’s scoring record for the season contributing 30 goals across competitions. The World Cup winner has been often criticized for his attitude. However, from the outside, it seems that France National Team and PSG have full confidence in him.

The French superstar has been in splendid form this season scoring 30 goals across competitions. He also became the youngest player to score 100 goals in Ligue 1 scoring in a very important match against Lyon before the International break.

The PSG forward also spoke about how ego is good for his game.

“People don’t understand ego but when you are not well there is no one who will come to your house to tell you that you can do that. It’s just you and your mindset. It’s just you. You have to convince yourself that you are capable of doing great things,” said the French national.

Mbappe has been touted to become the best player in the world for a long time now. The French forward has already won four Ligue 1 titles with PSG and A World Cup Winner medal with France. He further explained the cons of being a little bit egoistic.

“Of course, sometimes people do not understand because I think there is perhaps also this barrier which is created in relation to this subject, where one does not really explain what the ego is

“For people, the ego is just not giving a friend a penalty, having a better salary than the player of the rival team. It’s not just that, it’s also in the preparation. It’s a personal thing, to surpass yourself, it’s way beyond that superficial thing of saying ‘me, me.’ But I think there is quite a bit to be said about it,” added the PSG forward.

Mbappe has been long linked to a move to Real Madrid. It will surely be great for the La Liga fans witnessing such a great talent in Spain, however may turn out to be painful for Barça fans if the move ever materializes.
