An OL assistant coach said that Fabio Grosso has completely changed his behavior compared to what he was before.
Fabio Grosso, the young Italian coach, is having a very complicated first few weeks as coach of Olympique Lyonnais. Between the poor results of his troops and also the attack he suffered in Marseille, he has already experienced many strong and varied emotions.
“A more directive and stricter Grosso”
As a player, Grosso was less faced with these kinds of constraints. And this is not without consequences on his character. Rémy Verctoutre, one of his assistants in Lyon and who was also his teammate, confirmed this on Thursday on the L’Equipe Channel.
“As a player, I knew him to be very light-hearted and jovial. It is much less so now. Now he is directive, strict. While being very close to the players. And he hasn’t lost his French”confided the former doorman.
Grosso has less reason to smile now, but that doesn’t bother Vercoutre. “The staff enjoy working and we hope that this will quickly translate into results. I like working with a former teammate. But you have to keep a certain distance sometimes.”
