On RMC, the former Girondins de Bordeaux striker now consultant, Christophe Dugarryreacted to the fact that some players would not be “thoroughly” or “100%” in certain matches, preserving themselves for the next match which would be more important. For the former Bordeaux, it is not conceivable or possible.
“I do not know how as you do to make a match by saying to you ‘I raise my foot, or I do not put it too much, because three days later I have a more important match’. Excuse me, I couldn’t do that, because … How to say, ‘I may be a little less sprinter, instead of sprinter 100% I will do it at 80 or 70%’ … But that doesn’t mean anything … When you are sportsman, you are in your match, that doesn’t mean anything … You can’t predict it in football, I’m sorry … Going to look or a goal to go score, or a defender who has to make a tackle to prevent a goal, he will do it … If you take a nose in the nose, you will take a nose in your nose … that is part of the game. If you don’t feel, you don’t play, you leave room for a guy. But I don’t see how it is possible … how you can play by telling yourself ‘I will avoid injury’. This is the best way to hurt yourself ”.
