France forward, Antoine Griezmann has come out to say that Didier Deschamps knows exactly where to play him on the pitch.
This is coming after Griezmann played a vital role in France’s crucial victory vs Croatia in the UEFA Nations League.
According to him, he is taking advantage of being played in the right position in the national team and he is grateful for the confidence of the coach and his teammates.
He added that it was a complicated match vs Croatia on a difficult ground but France knows how to suffer for an important victory.
His words, “The coach knows where to put me,”
“I take advantage of this situation, of this place, of the confidence of the coach and my team-mates.
“It was a complicated match, not very beautiful to see, not very beautiful to play, on a difficult ground. We knew how to suffer, the most important is to win and show that we are strong.”
Deschamps added, “It was difficult for everyone. We knew we were going to have a battle,”
“We did the right thing in the second half. This team has always had character. Just because you won a title in 2018 doesn’t mean you win with a snap of your fingers.
“If we didn’t manage to score against Portugal, it’s also because the opposition was good. We had great opposition today even if we had an excellent start to the match.”
