Samir Nasri spoke about the profile of the new coach of Olympique de Marseille.
After a mixed start to the season, Olympique de Marseille will be expected to turn around in the coming weeks. Arrived this summer to take over from Igor Tudor, the new coach of the Marseille club, Marcelino, is not yet unanimous.
“He suffers a little”
Called to speak on the profile of the Spanish technician, Samir Nasri expressed some doubts. ” He’s a good coach, I met him in Spain. He has proven himself at Villarreal and Bilbao. Then you have to see if it is the size for the Marseille environment. He’s a very good coach, but it’s special for Marseille. He has to release a little more, because I find his posture a little bit… He suffers a little? Yes“, launched Nasri, consultant of the Canal Football Club.
It’s not the first time that Samir Nasri has expressed his skepticism about Marcelino. At the beginning of August, the former French international had already made remarks by contesting a choice by the OM coach, who had left Chancel Mbemba on the bench during the first leg of the Champions League against Panathinaikos (defeat 1 -0).
