The French team showed two fully opposed faces during their quarter -final of the League of Nations against Croatia. Because if the Blues were exciting during the return match at the Stade de France, they completely passed through the first leg played in Split. The fault notably with the bankruptcy of the midfielder. Positioned as a playmaker, Matteo Guendouzi was thus catastrophic and some did not fail to regret the international retirement of Antoine Griezmann.
But while it seemed to have to join the MLS next summer, the Colchoneros playmaker would be inclined to continue the adventure one more year at Atletico Madrid and this reversal could change the situation for the French team. At least it is the opinion of Jérôme Rothen, who clearly campaigned in favor of his return to the Blues.
“If he decides to continue at Atlético, it is because he is not worn out and that he feels able to bring his team at the top. He can still bring things. Basically, a player who holds in one of the best European clubs, by chaining the minutes and being rarely injured, must be in the French team. And then we see the shortcomings of this French team in the middle… ”, He said to the RMC microphone on Thursday.
Antoine Griezmann left the door open
“” There was the satisfaction Michael Olise on the last rally, a little in the role of Antoine as a playmaker. But Olise plays on one side in Bayern and it was the truth of this match against Croatia, he continued. For the other fields in the field, there is no possible comparison with Antoine Griezmann, whether in technical quality, the vision of the game, the vista and the experience. »»
And the former midfielder to continue saying that Antoine Griezmann had not completely closed the door of the French team. “I think it's not dead in Griezmann's head. Even if there is animosity and perhaps a little bit of resentment with the staff, he has not yet farewell. »»
