Gallas: "It's too easy"

WG: If you wear the jersey of the French team is already a good motivation, able to represent his country. Because when you play for the French team, we want to give for 90 minutes, whether in a stadium of 50 000 or 80 000 people. We will do everything to win.

When Taulier east of the French team, we did not want to s'économiser despite the love of the jersey?

W.G.: No, we must see differently. When you are young, you dream of playing in the French team. So when it happens, we should not complain because it is a championship match three days later. It was fortunate to be in the French team.

The defense was the strength of the French team before. Today is his weak point. How do you live?

W.G.: It is very hard. It has received many purposes. We never could bring the same defense, there have always been injured or suspended. Indeed, for this match against Uruguay, Eric (Abidal) is injured so it will still have to find someone to replace him in defense. It is a very important sector in a team, we need bases. He will do with it. It was a few days to find automation. I hope we will have time to address this problem before major competitions.

Feel a difference compared to the last rally under pressure before the matches against Romania?

W.G.: You feel better. The media have not released for some time, they were always behind us. They said so much that it was not obvious to work. Today is different. And if we make a good match against Uruguay, do not we put too much pressure for the next matches. We try to ignore all this, but it is never clear.

On a personal level, you have sometimes been disappointing lately ...

WG: I have been disappointing, that's what everyone says. And it is that I am there to support me a little. On my last matches with the French team, I think the word is a bit hard. I heard a lot about my case, including that I fuyais dueling. A few years ago, it was said that I did not have much to do in the team because I was well placed. And that the French team won. When it is less well, we try to put the blame on a player, and the easiest solution is to keep the player on the cape. But we must justify these criticisms and I think that the media went too far. We must look at the images and analyze the game a player to know if it was disappointing or not. The criticism about me after the matches against Serbia were not justified. Anyway, I do not need me so critical, I know if I was good or not.

Is not there a problem more general?

WG: It depends on the outcome of the French team. If we won all our matches, I do not think I would have been criticized. I am not saying that I realize the same benefits as the 2006 World Cup. But not here to say I'm disappointed that I flee or dueling. If I have one in my area for 45 minutes, I will not go in another area just to show that I do not flee the duels. In a case like that, for example, face Portugal at the 2006 World Cup, the media said I was well placed. Today, I am told that I dueling flee because the French team is worse. It's too easy.
