The player, hailed as a superstar, is going through a tough period with performances considered below expectations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His inability to lead the team against Liverpool in the Champions League, in the absence of Vinicius Jr., was particularly striking. Although Mbapp\u00e9 found the back of the net in the victory against Getafe, he remains at the center of debates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Madrid legend Guti, speaking on <em>El Chiringuito<\/em>, delivered a candid message to the French forward. According to him, Mbapp\u00e9 must overcome his doubts and live up to the expectations of the fans and the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.afriquesports.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-60.png\" alt=\"Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 Under Fire at Real Madrid: Criticism Intensifies!\" class=\"wp-image-834732\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guti Urges Mbapp\u00e9 to Step Up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For Guti, these doubts are a hurdle that Mbapp\u00e9 must overcome. <em>&#8220;He needs to break free from this insecurity now&#8230; and that happens in key moments, like taking a penalty,&#8221;<\/em> said the three-time Champions League winner. During the match against Getafe, Real Madrid was awarded a penalty in Vinicius Jr.&#8217;s absence. Instead of stepping up, Mbapp\u00e9 allowed Jude Bellingham and later Rodrygo to take charge, although the VAR ultimately overturned the penalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guti sees these situations as opportunities for Mbapp\u00e9 to demonstrate leadership and build his character. He believes Mbapp\u00e9&#8217;s role at Real Madrid should go far beyond scoring goals or providing assists. The French forward needs to establish himself as an iconic figure, following in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83e\ude76 \u00a1BRU-TAL! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GUTY14HAZ?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@GUTY14HAZ<\/a> cuenta c\u00f3mo vivi\u00f3 su debut con el Real Madrid:<br><br>\ud83d\ude05 &quot;Vomit\u00e9 la noche anterior por los nervios&quot;. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BAaEzYS1jx\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/BAaEzYS1jx<\/a><\/p>&mdash; El Chiringuito TV (@elchiringuitotv) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elchiringuitotv\/status\/1863747848145162553?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">December 3, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leadership as the Key to Success<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;Taking a penalty isn&#8217;t an obligation; it&#8217;s a way to show you&#8217;re ready to take responsibility,&#8221;<\/em> Guti emphasized.
