Didier Deschamps ya taka rawa a duka biyun—ya jagoranci tawagar zuwa nasara a 1998 sannan ya sake yin hakan a matsayin manaja a 2018.
Wasan karshe na gasar cin kofin duniya na 1998 shi ne na farko da Faransa ta taba yi, amma yanzu Les Bleus sun kasance cikin hudu daga cikin bakwai na karshe, inda Deschamps ya shiga uku daga cikinsu. A Arewacin Amurka, zai samu dama ta karshe ta sake kaiwa wani. Waɗannan su ne tsammanin, wanda nasarorin da suka gabata suka tsara. A cikin shekaru 14 da ya yi a matsayin manaja, Deschamps ya jagoranci Faransa zuwa manyan wasanni uku na karshe. "Muna cikin wadanda ake fifita," in ji shi yayin da yake zaune don hira.

Yayin da muke magana da Deschamps, mataimakinsa, Guy Stéphan, ya cusa kansa a kofa. "Kana da mafi kyau," ya yi wasa. Manajan Faransa ya amsa da murmushi: "Kullum yana da haƙiƙa sosai." Rikodin Deschamps a matsayin dan wasa sannan kuma a matsayin manaja yana sa da wuya a yi jayayya da sharhin Stéphan.
Amma kullum akwai bangaren ra'ayi. "A waje, akwai yuwuwar karin karramawa," in ji Deschamps. "Na sani sosai, tunda ina yawan tafiya waje, cewa yadda mutane ke ji a kasashen waje ya bambanta da yadda suke ji a Faransa." Damuwar a gida ita ce game da salon wasa. Kafin ya magance hakan, ya dan yi dariya: "Ya dogara da abin da kuke nufi da 'salon wasa.' A duniya, wannan abu ne daban, amma sai akwai Faransa, kuma Allah ya sani cewa idan an yiwa tawagar Faransa lakabi da mai tsaron gida ko mai takura, hakan bai hana mu samun sakamako ba."

Yana daukar wannan rawar jagoranci a waje, a filin wasa kuma, kuma ya san cewa idan ya yi magana, ba don kansa kawai yake magana ba—yana magana ne ga dukkan 'yan wasan ma."
