Is Mbappe at the heart of the team's attack?
我的答案是否 两届都不是，本人一直认为格列兹曼才是这两届法国队的核心而姆巴佩一直充当的是一个边路爆破手和开火权大于右路登贝莱边路射手。
Why is the core of France still Griezmann?
First of all, Griezmann handed over his firing rights to Mbappe, and after he took on more defensive tasks and ball-holding organization, it was equivalent to Kante's work (1.83 steals per game, 1 interception per game, 0.83 clearances per game, which is better than the defensive statistics of most midfielders), only half of it, no less, and has not delayed the first point of the backcourt counterattack and the formation of the formation, 3 assists tied with Messi for the assist king is the best proof, and Mbappe handed over the "defensive three zero statistics" Even Messi averages 0.5 steals per game, from which we can see that Mbappe is hardly involved in defense, although this pair has no direct reference value for attacking players, but against England and Morocco, Mbappe is almost not involved in the defense of the offensive efficiency and threat to the goal is not as good as Griezmann and Giroud and Dembele do not open a significant gap. Secondly, Griezmann's frequent forward insertion when Mbappe and Dembele were unable to open the situation, and the continuous collision of the frontcourt players formed a lot of game-breaking opportunities, and it was also the biggest contributor behind the defeat of England and Morocco.
Why did Mbappe score more goals than Griezmann in this World Cup, and is second to Griezmann in the order of attack?
First of all, we need to figure out a few things:
1. The French style of play is mainly defensive counterattack
2. Griezmann has a strong ability to score goals in the national team, and before this World Cup, Griezmann has been France's top scorer in the tournament and achieved good results
3. The change in Griezmann's position and role in these two World Cups: The reason for the position backward is that the absence of Kante has led to the defense not being as stable as the previous one, so Griezmann has to take on more defensive tasks, and his role has shifted from the previous interspersed shots to defensive tackles and the organization tandem after Giroud as a point.
4. Griezmann made those sacrifices: In order to make up for the lack of defensive area and strength caused by N'Golo Kante's absence, Griezmann basically gave up the right to fire and participated in the central midfield's assisted defensive pressing, doing all the dirty work, which is why the number of goals has fallen seriously compared to before. The most important thing is that the defensive area gap left over when Kante is not there is also Griezmann with his large number of runs to make up for it, of course, Griezmann also undertook the task of carrying the ball after Kante's steal, increasing the offensive weight in disguise.
Why did Mbappe's performance figures decline significantly in the two key games of the knockout rounds?
First of all, we can be sure that the intensity of the game in the second half of the knockout will increase significantly, the opponent's strength and tactical pertinence will increase significantly, and the restrictions on Mbappe will be greatly enhanced compared to before, and Mbappe's ability will be affirmed. But only this level of play can reflect the role and weight of each player in a team! Although Mbappe has scored 5 goals in previous matches, by the last few knockout rounds, he has played a role on the field, especially the offensive pick is ranked after Griezmann and Giroud, even the opposing line's fixed-point ball blasting and the threat level of the ball are also more prominent on the right, of course, there are reasons why the opponent's defensive focus is more inclined to Mbappe's side, but the threat has decreased too obviously, and the overall score of these two games is the lowest in the front court, while Griezmann, who did not score, is the highest scorer.
These are my arguments and opinions on the core of the French team.
