The France team can validate its ticket for the round of 16 of Euro 2024 this Tuesday late afternoon against Poland. Ousmane Dembélé could be out of the starting team.
Didier Deschamps is deep in thought before playing against Poland. The Blues coach knows that the performance against the Netherlands is not acceptable. Offensively, the France team has great difficulty finding the fault. This is due in particular to rather problematic technical errors. Ousmane Dembélé does not escape criticism, while many observers are campaigning for him to stay on the substitutes’ bench. This is particularly the opinion of Sébastien Tarrago, who hopes that Deschamps will open his eyes to the PSG player.
Dembélé on the bench, Deschamps will have to make a strong choice
On the set of The L’Equipe channel, the journalist did not in fact speak the language on the subject. “I think we need to get it out!” I like him a lot and I defended him a lot. He is someone who often annoys with his style of play. But you have to send a message and a message that is sent to the rest of the group. We don’t talk about it much but it’s a bad result against the Netherlands. I don’t believe you win a competition if there aren’t more than 13 or 14 players involved. We have to send a message even if he comes back for the round of 16 but he cannot be satisfied with what he has done. Besides, he’s very nervous.” notably indicated Sébastien Tarrago, who wants to see Ousmane Dembélé on the bench against Poland so that he becomes aware of the situation. The opportunity also to see players like Bradley Barcola, Kingsley Coman and Randal Kolo Muani at work.
