OM season, whatever this weekend is going on during the 34e And last day of Ligue 1, will have been completed. Second and assured of finishing the championship on the podium, the Marseille club has achieved its objective: namely to compete in the next edition of the Champions League. A challenge taken up with a workforce, which is largely revamped at the offseason, under the leadership of a Zerbi Roberto who will also have marked the spirits.
As such, the Italian coach according to Emmanuel Petit deserved to run for the title of best coach of the year during the UNFP trophies. However, the person concerned in his category was ahead of the Luis Enrique, Adi Hütter, Bruno Genesio, Liam Rosenior and Eric Roy. “” It is a scandal. Honestly, it's a scandalexclaims the 1998 world champion in an interview with Madeinfoot. Monaco is my training club, but I find that Adi Hütter has nothing to do among the nominees. »»
“” When we see where OM comes from, what the club went through Marcelino, Gattuso, then Gasset … De Zerbi resumed a team in ruins, in an extremely complicated sporting situation, but also financially, not to mention the tension with the supporterscontinues Emmanuel Petit in his indignation.
He arrives during the season, and he describes OM for the Champions League. It was the main objective! »»
Emmanuel Petit does not forget Adrien Rabiot
In the eyes of the former midfielder who has become a consultant, the Marseille context, sometimes heavy, is not sufficiently taken into account. “” Everyone knows the pressure in Marseille. A season there is like three or four elsewhere. It is trying, physically and mentally. In Monaco, you are protected, there is no media or popular pressure. With the budget they have, they have greatly disappointed me. Ok, they are in the Champions League at the end, but their season is far from convincing. When we look at what Zerbi accomplished, he should have been part of the nominees », Harts Emmanuel Petit.
The observation also applies to Adrien Rabiot, snubbed by his peers in the category of the best players in Ligue 1, and even absent from a typical team with a strong Parisian accent (nine players out of eleven). “” Even Adrien Rabiot should have been among the nominees. I'm sorry. He arrives for his first season. You have to look at what he did with Marseille. This is the essential element, the leader of this team. I find that the Marseille environment has been underestimated for quite a few years, in the nominees for the end of the season. »»
