Laurent Blanc's Playing Career Laurent Blanc's Professional Playing Upper Era
Laurent Blanc is a retired French footballer. A defender, he was a member of the 1998 FIFA World Cup-winning France team that won the 2000 UEFA Nations Cup, and replaced Domenico as France's manager after the 2010 World Cup until the 2012 UEFA Nations Cup.
After playing for French club Montpellier, Italian club Napoli and La Liga's Barcelona, Brown joined Serie A's Inter Milan before joining the English Premier League's Manchester United in 2001.
Bron has excellent defensive qualities, especially in handling tackles and overhead kicks, but has the disadvantage of slow speed and turnaround which is common to many center backs. This was particularly noticeable after Brown joined Manchester United in the EPL, where he was often outpaced by opponents, and was one of the culprits of United's poor performance in that season (2001-02), when they were criticized for conceding too many goals. In addition, United sold their famous stable defender Tan before that season, and Bron's performance was compared with Tan's, which added pressure on Bron.
The following year (2002-03), Manchester United acquired Rio Ferdinand at a high price. Rio Ferdinand's outstanding performance not only helped Manchester United to win the championship, but also made Brown retire as a reserve. At the end of the season, Brown announced his retirement.
Unlike the average defender, Blanc not only has the ability to defend, but also good at attacking the goal from the back, representing the national team during the period has scored 16 goals in 97 international matches. Before every match, he loved to kiss the bald head of the national team goalkeeper Bavus for good luck, which became a legend.
