Ludovic Obraniak targets the performance of Warren Zaire-Emery, believing that the young midfielder is not comfortable in an attacking role and deplores a lack of creativity in the France team.

The Blues fared poorly this Thursday against Israel (0-0) in the Nations League. One of the symbols of this disappointment, according to Ludovic Obraniak, is none other than the performance of Warren Zaire-Emery, the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder.

Aligned as an attacking midfielder by Didier Deschamps, the young French international was unable to convince the consultant to

The Team. The latter questioned the ability of the former Parisian Titi to evolve into a more advanced role on the field.

Obraniak sees a lack of genius

“It wasn’t a great success but it wasn’t a gift. This boy must be facing the game, never with his back to the game. He will not be able to evolve as a second attacker given his body orientation. I had a hard time seeing any complementarity with Kolo Muani”he judged.

The former LOSC player also highlighted the glaring absence of a creative player in the French ranks. “But, at least, the three circles tried and showed generosity. Kanté worked in front, behind, he saved a few shots. Camavinga tried his luck from afar. But we are clearly missing genius, a boy with a more assertive technical sensitivity to passing, capable of creating, making others play”analyzed Obraniak.
