The France national team have strongly denied claims there was some form of training ground bust-up just days before their World Cup quarter final clash against England.
Les Bleus take on the Three Lions on Saturday night with a place in the last four at stake, though if certain reports are to be believed, France's preparations have been less than ideal. The rumoured bust-up is alleged to have come between struggling right-back Benjamin Pavard and manager Didier Deschamps.
After Pavard was at fault for Australia's opening goal during the 4-1 win over the Socceroos in France's first game of the competition. He was was swiftly dropped against Denmark on match-day two. Many, potentially including the defender himself, expected Pavard to come back into the starting line-up for the final group game against Tunisia, but that was not the case.
