France coach Didier Deschamps has no problems with Thomas Tuchel resting N'Golo Kante.
The 29-year-old has struggled with niggling injury problems over the past two seasons.
Tuchel has heaped praise on Kante but has been cautious with his workload since taking over from Frank Lampard in late January.
"He is used to playing at a very high level, he does not save himself," Deschamps said at a press conference of Kante. "I am not unhappy when Tuchel does not start him every game.
"But everything is about communication. Players can arrive from their club not in ideal shape and then come back in better condition.
"The reverse is also possible. With Kante, it is more about physical problems that have been ongoing for several seasons. He does not save himself but he is like that, I will not change it.
"With a little experience, he is learning to manage himself."
