Pascal Dupraz has surely been Didier Deschamps’ biggest support in recent months. At each media outing, the Savoyard defends the record of his colleague at the head of the French team and considers the public too harsh on him. This Sunday, on the show Big Mouths of Sportthe former Evian coach Thonon-Gaillard questioned the public’s position vis-à-vis Didier Deschamps and Zinedine Zidane for the position of coach of the Blues.

“The disenchantment (towards Deschamps and the Blues) is simply lobbying. Because everyone dreams, me first and foremost, that Zidane is the coach of the France teamconfessed the former TFC coach in Les Grandes Gueules du Sport on RMC. The disenchantment starts from there. We beat Deschamps with all our might, we say every time that the French team is boring… Boring? But often a winner, whatever people say. And not that boring, if you want to look at football in its broad sense. Football today is a lot of strategy. Even at Manchester City, we get bored sometimes. So it must be said that we are lobbying”explains the 62-year-old technician, who puts himself in the mix. Didier Deschamps will have the opportunity to prove him right this Monday, by beating Belgium (8:45 p.m.).
