The Les Bleus manager has said that he would not allow the boo brigade to get on his nerves, after seeing his side draw a blank against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Uruguay-c3035 last night
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Du-c11689 Havre on Wednesday, and a large section of crowd jeered the players after the final whistle.
However, Didier Deschamps is unruffled from that unpleasant event and has stated that such actions will not hurt his ambitions for the team.
While talking to reporters, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-de-Marseille-c40127 player said that he is not bothered by the boo boys and there are a lot of positives to be taken from the game.
“That’s not what I’ll take from this match and it doesn’t bother me.”
The former France international said that he is aware of the expectations fans have from the national side but added that friendly matches are complicated to deal with.
The 43-year-old said that the team was missing several key players through injuries, and playing internationals in Augusts has always been a tricky business for Les Bleus.
“There are always expectations from the fans. And August friendly matches are complicated. It’s a while since we won one,” the former World Cup winner told reporters.
Deschamps, whose side will open their 2014 World Cup qualifying campaign against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Finland-c2898 next month, said that their desire was to win the match but it was just not meant to be.
The former Monaco manager said that supporters always protest when Les Bleus do not win such matches but that’s because they want their team to win. Deschamps added that he would have loved to see France win in his first match in charge as well, but sometime
one does not get what he desires.
“The desire was there but when the result isn’t, there’s always a chance (the supporters) will protest, because they want to see France win. But so do I, and so do the players.”
France are once again going through rebuilding phase after a less than convincing Euro 2012 campaign. And with a new coach at the helm in form of Didier Deschamps, good things are expected from them in future.
