Starting Saturday evening against Germany in a friendly (2-0 defeat), Warren Zaire-Emery (18 years old) had a very difficult evening at Groupama Stadium, like all his teammates (see video). After the meeting, Didier Deschamps did not spare his young midfielder.
“He’s a young player, he didn’t have his best game with us. It depends on him but also on the players around him. Having playing time is important, even if I know that by making these choices, it can harm collective performance. The state of fatigue is important, but it can also happen to relax psychologically. Getting the machine back on takes time. Whether it is Warren or someone else, we have not managed to rise to the level of Germany.” He will perhaps have the opportunity to recover against Chile on Tuesday in Marseille.
