"They struggled to qualify for the World Cup despite having so many quality players, although that does not guarantee you will get results.
"This is the toughest tournament in football and a lot of the 'big guns' have struggled."
With the likes of Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema and Arsenal midfielder Samir Nasri left at home by Raymond Domenech, the France coach has also kept Barcelona's Thierry Henry on the bench against Uruguay and Mexico.
South Africa left-back Tsepo Masilela believes that decision is down to Henry having an injury-hit season at the Spanish club.
