Nasri urges Man City boss Guardiola to manage France: Beautiful football!

Former Manchester City and Arsenal star Samir Nasri thinks Pep Guardiola should coach France.

Les Bleus won the 2018 World Cup under Didier Deschamps, but some want to see them play less defensive football.

And Nasri thinks his country would be play beautiful football under Guardiola, who has always expressed an interest in international management.

"I am happy that [France] won the 2018 World Cup, but there are some flaws," Nasri said during a live Instagram chat.

"[Deschamps] can construct three teams of a very, very good level and I have the right not to like it.

"Look, I have friends who play for the national team. They deserved to win the World Cup, but put [Pep] Guardiola in [charge of] the French team and you will see how they will play. We would enjoy it."
