The president of the French Football Federation Noel Le Graet has a healthy relationship with Didier Deschamps as Le Graet expressed his condition with the manager.
He said: “I have just spent a month with him. We took breakfast together, lunch, dinner and sometimes even after dinner. He is very respectful towards the federation officials. But above all, the players listen to every word he saysThat goes without saying. Everyone holds his work in high esteem. It’s simple: I forbid him to leave.”
Deschamps managed to push France through the quarter-finals of the 2014 World Cup until they locked horns with Germany and were knocked out from the tournament with a 1-0 loss.
Certain players of the French squad made standout performances and even though they failed on reaching the finals of the competition, Deschamps has received the support of fans, players and executives of the team as they are expecting the 45 year old tactician to make another impressive campaign with France during the 2016 Euro’s.
Taking into consideration that experienced teams such as:
Spain and Italy were surprisingly eliminated in the early stages of the 2014 World Cup; it was a fairly unpredictable element having to watch France edge their way closer and closer to the piece of silverware that they have not been able to lift in over 15 years but they will have to wait for at least another 4 years before being able to make another charge for it.
