UEFA Nations League: Didier Deschamps' France has reason to be concerned in this World Cup year after a poor showing.
PARIS, France — Is the curse of the FIFA World Cup champions poised to strike once more? After a disappointing start to their latest UEFA Nations League campaign, France seems shakier than ever five months out from the start of the Qatar event. Sure, playoff tiredness must be taken into account, but two points from four games against Croatia (twice), Denmark, and Austria is concerning for Didier Deschamps and his team, especially given their lackluster UEFA Euro 2020 performance.Les Bleus followed up a 2-1 home loss to the Danes with 1-1 away draws against the Croats and the Austrians before a sloppy 1-0 loss at home to their 2018 prey on Monday to round out a dismal Nations League season in which squad depth was finally put to the test. Perhaps the constant rotation contributed to the team's recent inconsistency, but the previous 12 months have been a challenge for the two-time world champions, with crucial players like Antoine Griezmann looking like shadows of their former selves.To be honest, the warning flags had been present since the French's dramatic Euro loss at the hands of Switzerland, when Kylian Mbappe's failure to convert a penalty ensured a round of 16 exit for the French, regardless of their subsequent Nations League success. Given the vast range of teams covered and the fact that the Danish — one of two teams to beat them — are Group D opponents in Qatar, Deschamps' failure to beat Ukraine (twice), Hungary, Portugal, the Swiss, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Denmark, Croatia (twice), and Austria should worry him.Only Denmark and the Croats have beaten Les Bleus over 90 minutes, and the Swiss required penalties, but the reality is that France are as unimpressive as they have been in a long time. This is all happening as Zinedine Zidane fends off interest from Paris Saint-Germain and waits for a hint that Deschamps is about to step down as coach of the team he has fought so hard to rebuild over the last decade.Despite flashes of brilliance, Karim Benzema has struggled to duplicate his Real Madrid best since returning to the international battle, while Kylian Mbappe has recently struggled with injuries. Given the long and arduous nature of the previous season, the Nations League this summer may have come at the worst possible time for such a brilliant group, but it is also a squad that should be prepared to deal with weariness or the loss of a key figure like N'Golo Kante.That has not been the case, and it does not totally explain Deschamps' reticence to experiment with his players until so close to the World Cup, especially given the fact that big uncertainties now loom over many positions that previously appeared to be settled. Les Bleus' next tests before Qatar are Austria and Denmark, and Group D has only just been set with Australia, but Deschamps has a lot to think about over the summer, with little room for error after such a barren stretch.
