'For Kylian, I am calm' - Tuchel relaxed over goal-shy Mbappe but may rest PSG forward

Thomas Tuchel is pleased with Kylian Mbappe's recent form, but says he will consider leaving the forward out of Paris Saint-Germain's squad for Saturday's trip to Montpellier.

The France international wasted a good chance in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Manchester United as his scoreless streak in the Champions League stretched to a ninth game.

He is also without a goal in his past three appearances for PSG, failing to score from any of his nine shots in those games and hitting the target only twice.
