Mbappe Should Keep Turning Heel After Surprisingly Deciding To Reject Real Madrid And Stay At PSG

Don't worry Real Madrid fans! You might not get to watch Mbappe play for your club, but he's going to be your number 1 fan for one game! That's a win. That's better than most. I mean he's not cheering for Liverpool. He's cheering for you. Sure, he turned down an offer to come to Real Madrid when it seemed all but locked to go there. At least Erling Haaland rejected you directly. 

And of course because it's European soccer, we're getting dramatics from all ends here: 

We're talking about Real Madrid here, right? The Kings of Europe. The club that rolled out a lineup that once consisted of Iker Casillas, Pepe, Sergio Ramos, Ricardo Carvalho, Ronaldo, Kaka, Karim Benzema, Marcelo, Xabi Alonso, Di Maria and Higuain. But one time you don't land Haaland and Mbappe you want to cry? Come on. This is like Alabama complaining someone else landed the No. 1 overall recruiting class. 

Mbappe should lean into being the heel. It happens basically every single time in sports. Young guy comes onto the scene, becomes a star, becomes the best player in the world and then becomes hated. Now it comes time to make a decision. Embrace the hate or roll over. I want Mbappe to keep making backhanded compliments. Tweet about every Real Madrid match for a year. Take a picture wearing a Madrid jersey. 

Just when you think you're down Madrid, Mbappe is here to save you as the No. 1 fan in the world. Good times.
