After several tactical adjustments, Roberto De Zerbi seems to have found the perfect balance for his Olympique de Marseille. The trio composed of Valentin Rongier, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, and Adrien Rabiot is now the keystone of the Marseille environment. Daniel Bravo, former OM player and now consultant, was full of praise for them in Provence : “The midfielder is extraordinary, he can give the most that the Vélodrome lacks to dominate the opponent and score. »
Bravo praised the versatility and intelligence of Rongier, the power of Højbjerg, and the return to form of Rabiot, author of two recent goals with the France team. This solid midfielder is complemented by the judicious repositioning of Geoffrey Kondogbia in central defense alongside Leonardo Balerdi, an idea which strengthens Marseille’s defensive stability.
A crucial test against Monaco
Before the reception of AS Monaco on Sunday evening, Bravo called on OM to confirm their rise in power against a direct competitor for the podium. “It’s the right time to show that OM is up to the task,” he said, underlining the importance of this shock as Monaco comes out of an intense match in the Champions League.
