As the Blues challenge Ireland on Thursday, Bixente Lizarazu made very complimentary remarks about a member of the France team.
TF1’s star consultant, Bixente Lizarazu has been commenting on the Blues’ performances alongside Grégoire Margotton for many years. And like any observer, the 1998 world champion does not hesitate to reveal the profiles that reap his favors.
Within the current France group, Lucas Hernandez has always been praised by the TF1 consultant. Rigorous defender, left-handed and able to play laterally, the neo-Parisian has regained his best level, to the delight of “Liza”. ” The return of Lucas Hernandez is excellent news for the Blues. Whether as a left-back or as a central defender, the position he should occupy against Ireland, he offers maximum defensive guarantees“, enthused Lizarazu in his column for the newspaper L’Équipe.
“He has the duel in the blood”
” What I like the most about him is that he has a true defender’s mindsetcontinued Bixente Lizarazu, conquered by the qualities of Lucas Hernandez. He has the duel in his blood and this desire to challenge the opponent which gives greater security to the whole defense, especially if the winger who is placed in front of him is a big customer.”
