Daniel Riolo and Emmanuel Petit reacted on Wednesday to Christophe Dugarry’s enthusiastic comments about Michael Olise. The 1998 World Cup champion compared the French winger to Zinédine Zidane, but the consensus from Riolo and Petit is that the attacking midfielder must still prove himself consistently – and on the biggest international stage – to enter the league of a Zizou.
