Olympique de Marseille started its Ligue 1 season in the worst in the way. Beaten from the start by Stade Rennais (0-1) on Friday, the vice-champion of France must also compose with tensions which broke out within its locker room.
Faced with this already burning climate, the RMC editorialist, Daniel Riolo, did not fail to point the finger at Roberto de Zerbi. For him, the Italian coach carries a large part of responsibility in the atmosphere which reigns today in the sky and white.
“We wash the dirty laundry in public”
“I believe that the real OM problem is merger. This enthusiasm is never controlled. I have no positive reading of the event. Before the shouting, we first have a first match with a big expectation and a team that does not respond. We have a rant of the coach when we are only in the first match. Always with Zerbi, who is in permanent fusion, who never brings down the pressure and gets angry. We spread it in everyone's eyes, we wash dirty laundry in public. We had speeches on the size of the balls … It's lamentable “dropped the polemicist.
Last season already, OM had crossed several turbulence areas. The heavy defeats against Auxerre (1-3, 0-3) or against the Stade de Reims (1-3) had left deep traces, especially internally.
