We have just learned of the death of Didier Roustan at the age of 66 from cancer this journalist marked a whole generation, this lover of the as Saint Étienne and the South American game will miss me personally especially when he commentated the South American matches on the team
Rest in peace didier roustan

Sad 😥, he must have had quite a collection of jerseys.
With its different shows and the jerseys
A true football enthusiast, we lose a great football man

RIP 🙏🏾

Oh, shit...

He was a great man with sensible words
Rest in peace and support your family and loved ones

Yes, sad news.

He was one of the very few with experience, passion and a face. Piss off the crab...

I'm one of those who don't give a damn when it doesn't affect a loved one, someone I've even known a little, and yet, Didier Roustan, it's not the same.

I exchanged with him several times on Twitter in particular (like a few here surely) and he always took the time to discuss football but not only. Answers inhabited by an enthusiast, often adorable.

He treated football as something serious and social. He's a bit like one of the guardians of a historical part of football who is leaving. His committed positions, his humanist vision of football, his anecdotes, all that, will be missed.

Anyway, for once, he's a guy who will be missed in football.

I have the feeling that his death causes the same electroshock as that of Thierry Gilardi.
He is one of the last great romantics of football who has passed away, a guy for whom football was above all a human adventure capable of writing the most beautiful pages of sport.
RIP Mr. Roustan, may you join in heaven those whose exploits you have told us for years!
And let's hope that the league and the fans pay you the tribute you deserve!

What genius, what reports!! He invented TV sequences, montages, shows, a tone... and what about citizen football shamefully put aside by the 3F. A part of our memory that is going away

I wasn't a fan, especially of his very/too romantic vision of South America. He was certainly an idealist, but he had this dark side in him that all communists have. This way of excusing mistakes, no matter how big they may be, in favor of what he thought was a superior good. I'm an opponent of the legend of Diego Maradona, who was so disappointed with Eric Cantona, so this type of personality wasn't my cup of tea.

But I watched 2 or 3 reports on his work, on what he brought to French-language sports journalism and what he accomplished, and I evolved in my perception of the character. I certainly did not always agree with his positions, but I recognize his immense talent and his usefulness in the French audiovisual landscape for many years.

May his soul rest in peace from now on.

This tribute would have deserved to be included in the evening team.
Bravo the artist. ❤️
