Defentatly not. It was probably harder for the Normans at first because their first three tactics didn't go to plan (archers, fighting, horses) then the Normans faked retreating. Then some of the Saxon warriors chased after them which meant a whole in their shield wall, so all the Normans could attack the Saxons. The Normans won

How many French soldiers were there in Battle of Hastings?

It is important to understand that the Normans were not French. They thought of themselves as Normans and a separate people from the French, although they spoke a dialect of French and had adopted French ideas such as mounted knights, massed archers and castle-building, they were still essentially Scandinavians who had been allowed to settle in Normandy ("the place of the Northmen") to prevent them raiding French territory.William's army included Normans, Bretons, Flemings and troops from Maine, but probably no genuine "French" troops at all.In total William had around 2,000 cavalry, 800 archers and 3,000 infantry; the English army is difficult to estimate but it may have been around 8,000 - all infantry.

Were the Normans popular?

The Normans were invaders. As any Occupying army knows, your first job after a successful invasion is to subdue the indigenous people to ensure that they cannot rebel against you. By definition, this does NOT make you popular.
