After another worrying match for the France team against Israel (0-0) on Thursday evening, Jérôme Rothen is not kind to Didier Deschamps, whom he accuses of lacking ideas.
The matches pass and concern grows around the France team. Once again worrying and authors of an indigestible performance in a delicate context during the reception of Israel Thursday evening at the Stade de France, the Blues did not score (0-0) and displayed regular weakness in the game. Enough to seriously annoy Jérôme Rothen, who identifies a culprit: Didier Deschamps.
“When we see the coach’s attitude, before, during the match, in terms of communication, he doesn’t give off anything. Yesterday’s context was special. I don’t want to blame the players for the pace of the match. When you given the weight of the context, it’s complicated. The team opposite played on their qualities. Where you can blame them is on the technical level. Whoever the coach is, except Didier Deschamps. would have done better”, conceded the consultant in the show Rothen s’igné on RMC this Friday.

“The coach annoys everyone”
Regardless of the coach on the bench (Bruno Genesio, Thierry Henry or Zinedine Zidane), Jérôme Rothen is convinced that “it will be better” for the Blues. “People will discover a different policy. It absolutely has to change! How can President Diallo not realize that the team is pissing off everyone and that the coach is pissing off everyone too? Yesterday, I said that We were going to get bored. That was the case at half-time, when you’re a great coach, when you want to change things, why don’t you change the guys? who make incredible technical errors? You put Zaire-Emery in number 10 for 70 minutes, what’s the message?”
Jostled and criticized, Didier Deschamps regretted the lack of accuracy of his players in front of goal against the Israelis. “We are not going to find any mitigating circumstances, we could have done more, obviously. Even if against a very grouped opponent, we had chances but we were not efficient. We were too calm in the first period, we took too long in the transmissions, we started timidly, on tiptoe, which favors a well-grouped opponent. I’m not going to be satisfied with what we did and not having. taken by goal, we should have won with so many chances, we are capable of doing better,” added the coach, whose choices against Italy on Sunday (8:45 p.m.) will be closely scrutinized.
