Discussions are started. On Wednesday, Didier Deschamps revealed during Gilles Bouleau’s 20-hour TF1 newscast, the list of players called up to join the French squad for the World Cup, which will take place in Qatar from November 20 to December 18. The Blues boss relied on 25 elements to build his team: 3 goalkeepers, 9 defenders, 6 midfielders and 7 attackers.
available in the setApollo Morning this Thursday, November 10 RMC, Jérôme Rothen spoke about the formation of the Didier Deschamps list. The sports advisor showed himself unfiltered to share his frustration with some of the French coach’s choices:I don’t necessarily like this list. I find it unbalanced. We have a lot of defenders who can play even from the sidelines, especially our centre-backs. This bothers me because you need experts in the position for me. It is the choice of Didier Deschamps, it should be respected.“
Injured by injuries to Paul Pogba and N’Golo Kanté, Jérôme Rothen noted the level of players that make up the Blues midfield: “With the absence of Pogba and Kanté in midfield, we’re a little short, a little too short. I see that there are players who are not yet at the international level. At least for now, I hope they surprise me.“Former French international (13 picks) worried about the game Didier Deschamps is planning to present:”With this list, you get the impression that you’ll “leave the ball with you” by entrusting the truck keys to Benzema and Mbappé. I don’t see football that way.“
After the roster was announced, Didier Deschamps admitted that he plans to return to a game system with 4 defenders, thus abandoning the 3-D system that the Blues have been playing for several months. A difficult decision for Jérôme Rothen: “With a grope. I’m a bit surprised by the name of Didier, who has always had a line of behavior and sticks to it. It was necessary to renew this team after the Euro and it did. We often went back to three but this system takes time to set up. Although he doesn’t say because we have bad results and injuries in the last games, because we are weak in the midfield, he says to himself “I will make my defense more intense”. Everyone is used to this quad system. You know the principles of the game, but there are positions where players do not have this feature and do not want to play there.“Counselor RMC took the opportunity to reiterate his suspicions about the tricolor midfielder, using harsh words: “But I understand that from the fact that he’s a little messed up in midfield. This midfielder is for me one of the weakest players in the history of the French team.“
