The French team is going through a complicated period. With the retirement of Antoine Griezmann and the non-selection for a supposed injury of Kylian Mbappé, a strange climate reigns over this October gathering. Fabien Bonnel, the spokesperson for Les Irrésistibles Français, the largest French supporters group, issued a statement on behalf of the group expressing concern and general sadness following the announcement of the international retirement of Grizouand the funny number of Kylian Mbappé.

“What stands out from this week, for us, is that the real captain has left, the one who was dubbed by the supporters, Antoine Griezmann. We wondered if the captain’s choice had been the right one, and with this episode, I don’t know. There is an error somewhere, even though we have just lost an exemplary model. Is this a communication problem? This is not normal as a captain. Either Real asks him to shut up, or France, but we know that when he wants to speak, he speaks. He must assume his captaincy. I wouldn’t go so far as to say that we have the feeling of being taken for idiots, and I don’t know by whom. But it’s a week to forget and it will be hard, because it will leave its mark”.
