Thierry Henry on why Jude Bellingham may feel ‘frustrated’ with Kylian Mbappe after Real Madrid’s loss to AC Milan.

Madrid trails Barcelona by nine points, and Henry says Bellingham is making runs Mbappe should be responsible for.

“It’s always Bellingham making the runs, pushing the team forward,” Henry noted. “He’s trying to do it all, but he’s not even a natural number nine. That’s not sustainable for winning games.”

Henry says Mbappe needs to adapt as a striker, adding more forward runs, though he doesn’t need to emulate Didier Drogba exactly.

Rodrygo’s benching and struggles with Mbappe, Bellingham, and Vinicius Jr. leave Ancelotti tasked with finding team harmony.

Despite few losses, Ancelotti struggles to blend Madrid’s star forwards; Bellingham’s defensive role limits his offensive impact, drawing criticism.

It’s clear that Bellingham’s new position and increased defensive burden have impacted his offensive contributions for Real Madrid.
