I came here to remind y'all that I'm one of the few people who had said that Deschamps is a bad coach, he was just lucky to have France's golden generation on his useless hands.
Just scroll few pages behind and you'll see my rant on why Deschamps and Guardiola are frauds...
Currently, it's minute 65 in France vs Spain and the Spaniards are having the French absolutely thrashed technically, tactically, and - most important of all - mentally.
And it's not even debatable that France has the better players, Spain only has Yamal and 10 other dudes, whereas France has Ballon d'Or contender in every position (except for goalie and RB maybe). And yet, the Spaniards are all over the French, which means only 1 thing and 1 thing only: the French are getting outcoached which - with a nuisance like Deschamps - it's not surprising to me. Maybe it is surprising to you, those who don't know ball, but not to me. It's not by accident that in their last 2 meetings Spain have defeated France each time...
And even if the French eventually win, it will be because of their stars, not because of Deschamps (and no, I don't hate Deschamps, I actually liked him as a player, when I was a Juve fan in the 90s...) But let's not kid ourselves: when it comes to coaching Deschamps is sub-par. Not the worst coach ever, but not as high quality as football casuals tried selling me the hype for... And the same with Pep, both of them are mediocre coaches...
Anyway, rant over, just wanted to remind y'all of how accurate I was in my ramblings
