France legend blasts Mbappe's dig at PSG

Former Arsenal and France star Emmanuel Petit has criticised Kylian Mbappe for his recent remarks about Paris Saint-Germain.

While on international duty with the French national side, Mbappe claims he has more freedom when he plays for Didier Deschamps.

Mbappe has been in the headlines for most of the campaign after a reported feud with teammate Neymar and Petit feels the striker's comments in the public are not helping the team.

"It's always about the same player, and at some point it has got to stop," Petit told RMC.

"Mbappe is intelligent, but does it ever occur to him two seconds after saying something that his words have consequences?

"They have a boomerang effect.  He should say them to his manager in private.

"Players speak from the heart about their team - and there he goes putting things in the public domain.

"I imagine Lionel Messi and company are starting to get sick and tired of hearing him speak out every time.

"The next step will be PSG asking him what sort of team he wants them to pick.  That will be the next step."
