Didier Deschamps Dismisses Paul Pogba Concerns
Didier Deschamps says there are plenty of reasons why Paul Pogba has struggled for consistency when playing for France.
Didier Deschamps was giving little away regarding his team selection ahead of France's clash with Albania in Marseille on Wednesday and dismissed questions relating to Paul Pogba's inconsistent displays for Les Bleus.
Pogba has developed into one of European football's best midfielders at Juventus, helping the Bianconeri to Scudetto success in each of his four years in Turin.
He has failed to replicate that dynamic club form on a regular basis for France, though.
Asked why, Deschamps said: "He doesn't have the same shirt on. He's not playing in the same formation. Juventus play with three centre-backs but that hasn't prevented Paul from playing good games with us.
"He's played some less impressive games but I am not asking myself how to use him in a similar fashion to how he is used by Juventus.
"He has also shown he can perform for the French national team."
