You have a point there also.
France players have been used to playing according to Didier Deschamps system for so many years. There must be a really strong bond there. When there is such change it won't be easy for the players to adapt to Zidane. This would take some good amount of time to happen. As you said it is the same for Zidane also to have full knowledge about the players.
I really don't know what Zidane really wants now though. It has been rumoured for a long time that he wants to work with France as a manager but I don't know if this is really his intention now.
Didier Deschamps have been long term manager for France and won Euro and FIFA World Cup trophies, I don't see bad achievement for France national teams under Didier Deschamps era and replacing his position by Zidane. I think its rumor have been long term and France football federation right now keep focus with Didier Deschamps until the next edition playing in Europe 2024.
No doubt with Zidane reputation success winning Champion League three teams with Real Madrid and winning La Liga tittle, but he has been three years without return back to be manager and likely he needs more adaption if want to be France manager position.
Depend on France teams achievement in Euro 2024, if qualify to final and success become the winner seems dificult with Didier Deschamps loss his position as France manager.
I think these discussions are pretty normal and it should not be forgotten that Deschamps has been the coach of the French national team for 12 years now. At some point people prefer some change and it is not surprising at all that the name Zidane is mentioned again and again. Deschamps was pretty successful, but the people mostly look back at the World Cup title in 2018 and not so much at the Nations League title as that doesn't really mean all that much.
As an outsider, I think that the name Zidane carries a bit more weight than the name Deschamps. Both had exceptional careers, but my guess is that more people sympathize with Zidane than with Deschamps. But in regards to their quality as a coach, I think there wouldn't be much of a difference for the Euro 2024. They will be the favorites anyway although I think at the moment England is seen as the favorite along with France. Spain and the Netherlands are quite far behind, but in my opinion these teams do have a chance to get something done at that tournament.
