Daniel Riolo is not surprised by the treatment received by the coach of the Blues and his captain. Copiously whistled by the public present at the Groupama Stadium during the announcement of the team composition, Kylian Mbappé and Didier Deschamps are taken against by many supporters of the Blues. “They embody this lack of love. Deschamps embodies the fact that we are bored when we watch the French team, and Mbappé embodies a little of the disillusionment with this player. His character, everything that has happened over the last year, everything he represents in this football that is going backwards and is no longer popular…”revealed the 54-year-old columnist to the microphone of RMC After Foot.

If the French team got some breathing room by defeating Belgium (2-0) in Lyon, this Monday. Mbappé and Deschamps are still under fire, for different reasons. The 25-year-old striker has not scored in the blue jersey for 5 games – only one goal scored in the last eight, against Poland from a penalty during the Euro – and his attitude, on and off the field, is also being singled out. Didier Deschamps, for his part, is, according to some, outdated and his adventure on the bench of the Blues should have been cut short earlier. In short, the French team comes out of this first post-Euro international break with even more questions than before this last one.
