Koscielny retires from Les Bleus, takes a dig at Didier Deschamps

Arsenal's Laurent Koscielny has announced his retirement from international football, and has criticised France coach Didier Deschamps in the process.

The defender missed the World Cup after suffering an Achilles injury, but says France's victory caused him a lot more psychological damage than his injury.

The 33-year-old says everyone's a friend when you're in good form, but you're forgotten when you're injured.

His last appearance for France was in March, in a 3-1 friendly win over Russia.
