In Rothen ignites on RMC, Christophe Dugarryformer player of Girondins de Bordeaux and consultant, spoke about Antoine Griezmann. Diego Simeone is in awe of the player and considers him one of the best players in the history of Atlético Madrid.
The subject was as follows:
Is Griezmann more considered in Spain than in France?
« I don't agree. Why do you say he's not appreciated? The French love Griezmann. Not as much as in Spain? We don't live in Madrid so we don't know anything about it. I think the French love Griezmann. French football? Uh, who is French football? Deschamps? Ah, is it French football Deschamps? What are you telling me… If you don't think there was enough enormous consideration to fight for him to stay in the French team? That’s another topic… Is it related? If you go that route, I pretty much agree. I think we let him go quite quickly, too quickly. Afterwards, I think there is a deep respect for this boy, who explained things in a very simple way. I think he also gained the respect of the French public in general, and even the Spanish, because he is a team player. He is a player who fights for the team, who never pulls the cover on himself, who is a scorer, who is a passer, who knows how to do everything on a football field. He never tried to show off. »
