Deschamps is the perfect national team manager, always puts up interesting team shapes. Both in 2018 where he placed Matuidi on the left side to allow Pogba in a pivot, and in 2022 where he played a fluid front 5 attack.
Each player is allowed to play their best/most efficient role in a non-symmetrical shape. Maximizing Griezmann’s impact by giving him a free role in midfield, same for Mbappé in attack who showed glimpses of playmaking at times.
This is where you see that there may had been actual football reasons for not picking Benzema in the past few years. Giroud being the absolute tactical stabiliser in that team as a target man unlike Benzema who wants to do more considering his technical abilities.
I don’t like talking about the World Cup as you may have noticed in the past few days, due to the extremely high result bias from fans and even the best football analysts (Croatia vs Brazil). However, this France shape is simply ridiculous, no matter if they win or not.
