French national team's history (1958-2021) in line-ups and stats

[@mgpunya1]

After Platini you thought France will never produce stylish player until Zidane. Of course they have many very good players..

[@yohanauvray543]

Until Zidane and Henry to be exact.
Yeah unfortunately you’re right but it’s pretty ironic that we are considered as the best team of the world right now.

[@mgpunya1]

@@yohanauvray543 You can have the best individual players in a team but they've to 'blossom' , click & peak at the same time as a team too, which is important i think. But the exceptional & outstanding ones always seems to be able to carry his team....

and now there's griezzman and mbappe

[@strongerbibadi1953]

Griezmann et Mbappé sont largement inférieur à Zidane !

[@synkaan2167]

My best 11 :
GK : Fabien Barthez
DF : Lilian Thuram, Laurent Blanc, Marcel Desailly, Bixente Lizarazu
MF : N'Golo Kanté, Zinédine Zidane, Michel Platini (C)
FW : Kylian MBappé, Karim Benzema, Thierry Henry
It's not easy to choose, I could have put Tresor in DF instead of Desailly or Blanc and I could have choose Manuel Amoros instead of Lizarazu.
And this comp could need an other midfielder (like Tigana or Viera for example, it would be more balanced) but I'm unable to remove Henry, Mbappé or Benzema ^^
Oh and I chose to avoid older player like Kopa or Fontaine because I think football was too different back then.
Pas évident de choisir, j'aurais pu mettre Trésor à la place de Desailly ou Blanc en défense centrale et Manuel Amoros au lieu de Lizarazu.
Et la compo aurait besoin d'un milieu supplémentaire (comme Tigana ou Viera par exemple, ce serait plus équilibré. La on aurait p-e du mal à faire le lien mais bon je pouvais pas enlever un de ces 3 attaquants lol.
Ah et j'ai volontairement évité les vieux joueurs des années 50-60, je pense que le foot a trop évolué depuis.

For the line ups I can check it looks to me the formation are sometimes not the good one.

[@pklm2309]

Excellent video but Papin wasn't a starter at WC 1986?

[@sportsavenue5654]

Yes, he was - at the beginning of the tournament, but after that Jean-Pierre didn't play a single minute in those three crucial playoff games against Italy, Brazil and FRG. Obviously these matches have impacted my choice.
By the way, would you have like to subscribe? Maybe you even already did it - it's hard to figure out these kind of things here.
