Escaré is clearly from the Puig-Aubert school of thought that says that if the full-back is left one-on-one, someone further upfield has failed to do their job and why should he make up for someone else's mess.
You got away with it in the 1950s and if you were as good as Puig-Aubert though.
Or on the other hand, it can only be months until Escaré takes the field with a fag on and a bottle of brandy.
