Criticized throughout the season, Kylian Mbappé has already become the king of the France team again. After a simply stratospheric start to the World Cup, the Les Bleus forward has completely turned public opinion around.
It did not take long. A few matches, two goals against Senegal, two against Iraq and two against Sweden… and just like that, everything changed. His influence has been enormous, with a renewed sense of power and three historic braces.
Mbappé Silences His Critics
Kylian Mbappé, who had been questioned in recent months both at Real Madrid and with the France team, is reminding everyone why he remains one of the best players on the planet. The symbol of this comeback is a petition titled “Kylian, forgive us,” which is already circulating and has reportedly passed 11,000 signatures.
The initiative is obviously ironic, but it says a lot about the change in atmosphere around the France captain. Since the start of the World Cup, Mbappé has been answering on the pitch: sharp, decisive, involved and carrying Les Bleus with impressive authority. Those who doubted him just a few weeks ago already seem ready to admit they were wrong.
Critiqué toute la saison, Kylian Mbappé est déjà redevenu intouchable lors de cette Coupe du Monde. 👑🇫🇷
Une pétition « Kylian, pardonne-nous. » a déjà dépassé les 11.000 signatures. 😭

As is often the case with Mbappé, everything moves very quickly. The criticism comes fast, but the U-turns come even faster. And if the tournament continues at this pace, the petition could quickly gain several thousand more signatures. Imagine how many signatures it would get if Mbappé scores in the final and France wins the World Cup…
