PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe admits struggling as a central striker
KYLIAN MBAPPE has admitted he still has much to learn despite starring for Paris Saint-Germain since his mega-money move.
After playing a key role in creating his sides late winner in a 2-1 victory at Dijon, the Frenchman felt massively frustrated.
Mbappe missed two great chances and said he felt playing centrally with Edinson Cavani out had affected him.
The pacey forward said: "I tried to get my goals, but I missed many chances.
"It was not an ideal match and it was not easy because I have not played in this position for a long time.
"Usually, Edinson plays in this position and he has had it throughout the year. He wasn't here this time, and sometimes I will have to play in this position.
"But on Wednesday, I will be back on the right and that suits me well.
"I will work and train hard, because it was not good."
Mbappe created the late winner for defender Thomas Meunier, who scored his second of the game to recover the lead the Parisians, minutes after Benjamin Jeannot's stunning 30-yard volley.
And he hinted the pressure on international duty may have played a role in a dip in form.
The prodigy added: "The international breaks are trying, yes, but we are happy to go and serve our countries. It is part of the job."
