While the Blues seem less and less convinced by Didier Deschamps, the treatment reserved by the French coach for Warren Zaire-Emery during the Euro goes badly.
Didier Deschamps is in the hot seat. And this time, it is not the latest results of the Blues that are in question. The lost semi-final at the Euro certainly left a bitter taste in the mouth and the slap received against Italy at the opening of the League of Nations further confirmed the difficulties of the French team against the big names. But if the French coach is in turmoil, it is because of the Kylian Mbappé case.
A month after having suffered the full force of his captain's refusal to join the Blues for the two matches against Israel and Belgium, the former midfielder decided not to select the Madrilenian for the two November matches. A strong decision which should not necessarily offend the players of the France team. According to Foot Mercato, Didier Deschamps' men have indeed had a hard time with the privileges their captain has enjoyed in the recent past.
Zaire-Emery, an incomprehensible choice from Deschamps
Likewise, a dry response from the former Monegasque towards Didier Deschamps during a discussion in front of the group would have further damaged the image of the French coach, whose leadership would appear to be called into question. But the Blues would have other grievances against their coach.
His communication would also raise eyebrows internally, both in substance and form, and some of his choices would not have been understood by the players, first and foremost the treatment reserved by “DD” for Warren Zaire-Emery during of the Euro. Like many other defensive players, the Parisian midfielder did not have a single minute of play in Germany. A surprising choice given the difficulties of the Blues and all the more incomprehensible since the native of Montreuil had to sacrifice the Olympic Games to participate in the Euro.
