Téji Savanier has more football talent than Antoine Griezmann? This is what FC Versailles footballers think.
FC Versailles, N1 club, created a buzz this weekend with a sequence that went viral. In a group life video published on the club’s networks, several players discuss football in a relaxed atmosphere and amidst laughter. Until two of them embark on a debate that is… daring to say the least.
“There are 200 or 300 players better than Griezmann in history,” blurted out one of them, corroborated by one of his comrades. “Téji Savanier, if he really wants to play, he is stronger than Griezmann. »
The reactions were not long in coming: bursts of laughter, frightened faces, raised eyebrows… A pure locker room moment, between assumed provocation and slightly borderline humor, which immediately made the rounds on social networks.
Not comparable results
But beyond the joke, the comparison inevitably makes you smile. Antoine Griezmann has won a World Cup, a Europa League, more than 120 caps with the Blues and a major influence on French football over the last decade. The Atlético striker has built a career at the highest level in the world, between consistency, playing intelligence and leadership.
Téji Savanier remains a player of pure talent, capable of lighting up a match with a pass or a free kick. But the playmaker from Montpellier Hérault SC, relegated this season to Ligue 2, does not have the same track record, nor the same international influence.
The sequence has the merit of reminding us of what we love about football: unfiltered debates, improbable convictions and locker room discussions where everyone is right… until proven otherwise. And in this little game, Versailles won the buzz game.
