On Tuesday, the France A team and the coach Corinne Deacon were in Clairefontaine for a new rally. The Blue coach took the opportunity to give a press conference, with the two friendlies against Germany (24 November) and Sweden (27 November) in prospect. She answered the journalists' questions and those concerning certain players selected for these two matches.


Among these players, Marion Torrent who today has four selections (three tenures), the first was on September 15 against Chile (1-0). And the least we can say is that the selectionneuse is satisfied with the performance of Montpelliéraine. What she likes about her: her fighting spirit.


"[Marion Torrent] is an example [among others] because if all the girls do that to me [Deacon refers to the qualities of Marion Torrent's commitment and fighting spirit on the field, her swinging side, which do not let anything go, I'm not sure it does not do much on the field, so we need players like Marion [Torrent], then we need other players, with other qualities, with others But, actually, that's what I said to Marion [Torrent], I like her swinging qualities, she does not let go anything. "


"Will she be here in a year and a half? Only the future will tell us "


"After that, there are some small flaws but of course, as I said to him, anyway in a football match, we never make a mistake, from there we have to accept the mistake, accept at a certain moment given to miss a pass, a control, to be a little late on a defensive replacement.But from the moment we make efforts, whether it is its partners, the spectators or me, we can obviously only encourage that kind of attitude. "


"You need a little bit of everything, you need two or three players like that, two / three players with other qualities, you can not make a team with aggression and combativeness. must find this amalgam [and] actually Marion [Torrent] has scored a lot of points in recent matches.Will she be there in a year and a half? Will these performances be what they are today? Only the future will tell, but in fact, we must find several different profiles but at the same time compatible. "
