Frank Leboeuf Admits Mistake in Criticizing Marc Cucurella
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter


It’s perfectly okay to change your mind, and in fact, being open to revising your opinion is a sign of growth rather than stubbornness.

In the case of Marc Cucurella, he’s made it incredibly difficult not to rethink previous judgments. Once a target of jeers, he’s now met with cheers whenever he successfully tackles on the field. His transformation has been nothing short of remarkable.

Initially, many Chelsea fans were not fond of Cucurella. That sentiment shifted considerably over the summer, when he dazzled everyone with his performance for Spain in the Euros. Upon his return to Chelsea, he brought that same brilliance to the club.

Thinking back, remember when Gary Neville boldly predicted Spain wouldn’t win the Euros and blamed Cucurella for it? Well, that didn’t age well.

Despite his stellar contributions this season, let’s not forget that when Cucurella first joined Chelsea from Brighton for a hefty £60 million, he was often inconsistent and failed to deliver consistently in his new jersey.

Personally, I found this puzzling. At the time, I was excited when Chelsea signed him, having followed his career closely since Getafe and admiring his work at Brighton. I really thought Chelsea had acquired a top-notch left-back.

Only Cucurella himself can explain what went wrong during his initial days at the club. There was a lot of speculation about personal issues off the field impacting him back then, which might have played a role. Whatever the cause, he’s managed to bounce back brilliantly, illustrating that redemption is always possible in sports. A player’s downfall isn’t the end; there’s always a path to recovery.

Frank Leboeuf was quite outspoken about Cucurella two years ago, saying:

“We don’t want to see Cucurella anymore. With all due respect to a man that I don’t know, the player is not good enough for Chelsea. It’s as simple as that.

It’s crazy that they signed him for £60 million, but we can see that he doesn’t belong to this level.”

But now, Leboeuf has changed his tune:

“I want to mention somebody because I was very harsh, very hard on him about two years ago.

Cucurella. I call him Cucu the saviour! That’s what I call him. He’s become my idol! That guy is amazing: defensively, offensively. Cucu the saviour, I love you.”

Cucurella has indeed risen to the occasion, showing immense improvement not just in his skills but also in his role as an influential force on the field. His growth as a leader is evident, having shed the erratic habits that once plagued him.

Here’s hoping his incredible journey continues for a long time to come.
