Deschamps: As a coach, you must learn to keep up with the times. If you don’t adapt to young players, you will only become a stubborn old man.

French team coach Deschamps was interviewed recently and talked about how he gets along with the young players in the team.

Deschamps said: "Today's players are more confident, they are more confident. In the past, young players did what we told them and that's it. Today's players are more calm because they are ready earlier, play earlier and are more mature."

"It's like in In the business world, a young man comes and he is able to go to his boss and tell him that he wants his position. This can be seen as a lack of humility, but you can also understand that he is ambitious. "

"While some things were better in the past, those may not work now, such as you can't ban now. Players are prohibited from using mobile phones in the locker room. The current generation of players are born with mobile phones. The key is for me to adapt to them and adapt to the times. "

"Young players have limited concentration. I must adjust my coaching methods to adapt to the players. I prefer to keep it short and concise, I don’t want to become their ‘background music’, I’d rather they listen to me. "

"It is by adapting to youth that you can find the balance between being an old fogy and not pretending to be a youth. After all you are always getting older and there are always more and more young players. "
