Gaël Clichy, the Manchester City defender, expressed his disappointment at not being a regular starter in the French national team. While he has been a consistent presence for his club, Clichy faces competition from Patrice Evra in the national team, and coach Didier Deschamps has often preferred to start Evra.
Clichy acknowledged the coach’s choices but felt that he deserves a chance to prove himself. He highlighted his disappointment at not getting the opportunity to establish himself as the first-choice left-back after Euro 2012. Despite the challenges in his international career, Clichy expressed determination to fight for his place and continue delivering strong performances at the club level to influence the coach’s decisions.
