Many voices are being raised to demand the arrival of Zinedine Zidane at the helm of the France team. Not a good idea for everyone…

For many observers, at the end of the League of Nations match against Israel, Thursday at the Stade de France (0-0), there was an urgency to see the French selection revitalized by new blood. And not necessarily on the ground. Arriving on the bench of the France team in 2012, Didier Deschamps would have served his time according to many of the critics invited to speak on the subject. Not all of them, it’s true.

In this concert of disavowals, he is a former player who judges the Zinedine Zidane option much too premature, especially since Didier Deschamps does not deserve it according to him. “ As long as there are results, I am for stability. Because whoever is going to replace Didier Deschamps, I wish him good luck. We must not forget everything he did », says Souleymane Diawara.

“Everyone is going to fall on him”

The former defender of OM, champions of France in 2010 under the orders of Didier Deschamps, holds in high esteem the current coach of the Blues, crowned world champion in 2018 and still a finalist four years later. In a live on Twitch, the person concerned maintains that Zizou’s time has not yet arrived in the French team.

The one who was a Senegalese international adds in fact that the succession has everything of a trap today for the substitute of Deschamps. Even expected as the messiah such as Zidane. “
I don’t want him to join the France team right away. If he does worse than Deschamps, everyone will fall on him. (…) Zizou no, not for now. We have to get someone else! »
