I am bit concerned why France is goinn for Zizou. I know he is good Manager but other than Real Madrid he didnt manage any other team. Deschamps worked with Juve, Marseille he had decent foundation but Zidane didnt work from ground up.
I hope it doesn't end up like Alonso situation . I just hope Federation think twice before giving it to him.
First the symbol
Zidane is THE greatest French player ever. The biggest star, the biggest name etc.
Having him as the head coach would be awesome. For the image of the team nationally, for the international image, sponsors etc etc etc. It would be the talk of the town.
And after Deschamps you need someone huge to take the mantle. Deschamps has an amazing record as France coach.
So guys want it to happen, and it will likely happen.
Now about Zizou own capabilities : he did his class, passed his coach exams, coached the young Real Madrid Team, and then coached the Real Madrid.
For a surprisingly great track record : 3 CL ! (One more being assistant) , 2 championship, 2 Espagne cup, supercoupe etc etc.
it is quite huge frankly
Okay Deschamps had more experience, but Zidane isn’t a nobody coaching wise. I don’t see many head coach with more experience, especially French ones (it is French culture to have (as much as possible) French coach)
