A lesson to meditate to Didier Deschamps
To illustrate his words, the former Arsenal player takes the example of Fabian Ruiz who, for a long time, was not as inspired with PSG as with the Seleccion. “PSG supporters made fun of him, but also the press, former players, etc. They said he was a different player when he played for Spain than when he played for PSG ”he recalls.
“But since PSG has changed and has played with a unit like Spain, we have suddenly discovered that Ruiz is a very important player. It is not a coincidencehe adds. I think if you want to improve your players as an individual, the team spirit must be good. This is why Spain is the best team in the world, and that France and other countries are not at the same level. »» To meditate to Didier Deschamps.
