His record of the draw against Austria


"

Because of what we were able to do, the number of chances we created, especially in the second half when it was an attack-defense, we failed to reverse the trend.

We had total control in the second half and we lacked efficiency, it's a shame in relation to our content and what we had done very well in the second half.

His view of the Konaté-Saliba hinge and the inexperienced midfielder


It was a difficult baptism of fire but without experience and automatism, the individual quality is there.

I take this into account in my analysis.

We conceded few chances, and it is important that I can see the players in different options.

Bouba (Kamara) was in his register with volume, his ability to recover balls, it's quite positive of course.

Like the first match of “Ibou” Konaté.

It's solid.

There are a lot of young people, it's a rejuvenated team compared to usual

If Mbappé's entry was planned at the end of the match


It was planned for him to play because he had better feelings yesterday (Thursday).

Kylian is Kylian.

I prefer to have him on the field from the first minute, he has had little so far (released during the match against Croatia last Saturday, editor's note), he did not go far from the double after a stoppage miracle of the guardian.

My choices are more constrained, with fatigue, which is not an excuse but reality.

Obviously we do not have all our potential available for each match.

We have one last battle to fight in three days.

The difficulties of Griezmann, released on the hour mark


Antoine, I knew he was not going to play the whole match, he had an hour.

I'm not going to tell you this, but he's not in his best shape, it shows in his game and in the influence of the team's offensive animation.

If he wants to try the Mbappé-Nkunku-Benzema trio on Monday against Croatia


"

I'm not here to try, it's a question of balance, there are advantages and disadvantages of being three (in front) .

I will think again to make sure I have the best solution.

Christopher (Nkunku) has also played a lot and confirms everything he has been able to do with his club and us too.

Afterwards, Kylian is Kylian, Karim (Benzema) also has accumulated fatigue even if he is on top.

I had expected him not to play the whole match, but since we had to win the match, he stayed until the end.

His reasons for staying in the 4-2-3-1 system


It is the most rational system for using the width and the intervals between players.

I try to put each of them in the best positions.

How with King' (Coman) and Moussa (Diaby) in the corridors.

We had little imbalance, apart from the goal and at the end of the match because we push.

This balance allowed us to attack well and create a lot of chances.

»

His opinion on Coman's match, very moving


He can play right and left, created a lot of imbalance, with less precision in the finish but he has this ability to destabilize the opponent and offer chances.

If we can finish them better, that would be perfect.
