Can we be disappointed after a 3-0 victory? This is the case for the France team on Friday evening, after this success against Azerbaijan which took time to take shape.
At the end of a first period without relief, it took a personal exploit from Kylian Mbappé to break the deadlock. The Bondynois carried his team, but the other offensive elements shone much less, like Michael Olise.
“Positioned on the right side of the 4-4-2, he didn't have the usual juice. He also had a lot of waste and sometimes showed complacency”points out L'Equipe, which inflicts a scathing 3/10 on the Bayern player.
Olise? Deschamps is disappointed, but…
In such a match, the left-hander was nevertheless eagerly awaited.
“It is this creativity which should allow us to make the difference against the low blocksanalyzes Rio Mavuba in his debrief. Michael Olise is there for that, to make the French team's game easier against this type of opponent. He hasn't always been successful this time. »
“No, it’s not his best matchDidier Deschamps also recognized at a press conference.
Even if he is used to this position with Bayern Munich (right), he is more used to playing in the middle. Michael has a lot of qualities, he had more waste on the technical level. »
However, the coach does not intend to let go of a player on whom he is betting a lot, and who could regain his role as No. 10 in a 4-2-3-1 on Monday in Iceland. “I’m not worried about him, he will remain a very important element for the Blues”assures Didier Deschamps, who will undoubtedly bet on Olise in the absence of Kylian Mbappé.
