As glimpsed during the last training of the Blues, Didier Deschamps will operate a very wide rotation to face Croatia, this Monday evening in Split in the League of Nations.
No less than ten changes will take place compared to the team defeated by Denmark (1-2) at the Stade de France three days ago.

Only Tchouaméni will continue.
Unheard of under the Deschamps era.
The close programming of the meetings obliges the coach to regenerate the bodies and the heads.
In the heat of the Poljud stadium, Wissam Ben Yedder will lead the attack of the Blues supported by Nkunku, with Diaby and Rabiot to occupy the corridors in a 4-4-2 or a 4-2-3-1 it depends.
Griezmann, Benzema and Mbappé replacements
The Blues staff chose to return to a four-man defense for this match against Luka Modric's men.
A tricolor rearguard composed from right to left of Pavard, Saliba, Kimpembe (captain for a night) and Digne.
Finally, as announced by Deschamps at a press conference, Mike Maignan will honor his 3rd selection in goal.
Griezmann, like Benzema and Mbappé will therefore start the meeting as substitutes.
The composition of the French team:
Maignan - Pavard, Saliba, Kimpembe (cap.), Digne - Guendouzi, Tchouaméni - Diaby, Nkunku, Rabiot - Ben Yedder.
