The Blues had a complicated evening on Thursday. In a Stade de France which sounded hollow like never before, the French team did not manage to win against Israel, having to settle for a sad 0-0. Didier Deschamps’ troops dominated the debates and multiplied the chances but faltered in the finish. Enough to perhaps make the French coach regret the absence of Kylian Mbappé.
Like the day before at the pre-match press conference, the former midfielder was asked about his captain. On Wednesday, the double world champion was very scathing. “
I won’t say more (Editor’s note: only when the list of players called up was announced), he indicated, before clarifying his thoughts. You are free to speak or interpret, I have 23 players to manage, Kylian is not here, leave him alone!
“, he cursed.
Didier Deschamps recognizes a problem
Raised on the subject on the set of the post-match show on TF1, the annoyance was once again palpable. “He’s not here, so I’ll tell you what I already said.” Leave him alone. I said what I had to say. Sometimes it’s good not to say too much. There is no sanction,”
he first said, nevertheless saying a little more when his interlocutors suggested that he was not at his best at the moment.
“It’s factual. He is in a complicated situation, I am behind him. He is going through what is not the happiest period of his career. Despite everything, he wanted to come. I think it’s better at the moment for him (not to come to the Blues). Everyone has the right to have a complicated period. There is the physical aspect, the psychological aspect too. There are constantly interpretations, whether I speak or not. So I’m careful to weigh my words,” this time he confided, adding: “Either I say something or I don’t say anything. I didn’t say anything but I’m not going to get into debates. »
