The Olympique de Marseille coach was present at a press conference this Thursday to discuss the shock against Lille.
After the postponement of its match against Lyon, Olympique de Marseille will return to competition this Saturday, with a match against another big player in the French championship: Lille (Saturday, 9 p.m.). A match that Gennaro Gattuso approaches with the greatest vigilance.
Faithful to his communication since his arrival in France, the Italian technician flattered his opponent. “ It’s a team that is very interesting from a technical point of view. It’s a team that is very fast, so you’ll really have to be very attentive. The interpretation of the match will have to be impeccable. Because when you see the goals he generally scores, they manage to score when you lose the ball, they manage to get going again very quickly, so you’ll have to be careful, it won’t be easy.”
“Play with personality and manage phases without the ball”
Gattuso clarified his thoughts by revealing the key elements of his plan. “We will really have to put in a great performance. They are definitely a difficult team to face at the moment. We know it. We know that this is a team that can put us in difficulty. But we know that we too can put them in difficulty. If we play with courage, if we play with personality. And if we also manage the phases without the ball well. But it will surely be a very good match in any case. » The tone is set.
