The Valencia defender had a very subdued European Championships and claims that he wants to show that his performance during the Euros was just a one-off
If one takes a look at the disappointments of France’s European Championships campaign, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adil-Rami-c3639 would indeed be one of them. Paired up with AC Milan’s Philippe Mexes, the former Lille star was unable to replicate the form that made him one of the best
centre-backs in La Liga.
Target of much criticism, the Valencia star now wants to prove that he is now back at the level where he will justify his selection for the national side.
“It is never nice, because two or three matches have destroyed everything that I have in the past two seasons. It’s hard, sometimes unfair. I have not had a good competition,” admits the 26-year-old defender.
The native of Bastia says that he is doing his best to return to his past best and has asked people not to forget how good he was a few years ago.
“A few years ago, I was a mechanic, yes mechanic. It should not be forgotten. Today, I have moved to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863, I play for France. I mainly want to show that during the Euro, it was not me.”
The Bastia man swears that he was not at his best in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mamadou-Sakho-c23293 and Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa, a central defensive pairing that Didier Deschamps prefers.
Rami claims that he knows that things in football change quickly and every player’s performance is evaluated by the national team’s staff on a weekly basis.
“When you are in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 national team, you are being watched, spied. All of your games are dissected, studied under the microscope. But I’m glad to be part of Didier Deschamps’ plans.”
Things have not gone well for Adil Rami in the national set-up in recent months. However, after making a decent start to the new La Liga campaign, the player can be hopeful of getting a fair amount of chances from Deschamps who is lucky to have a talented
squad at his disposal.
