A reaction is therefore expected from the Marseille players, who were not spared by Roberto De Zerbi after this scathing setback against AJA. The Italian coach even offered to leave after the meeting.
Finally staying, the Italian coach does not intend to leave anytime soon. “ If you think I’m going to resign, that it’s my idea, I really want to emphasize that I’m not running away. I stay here, I did not flee from Shakhtar even when Putin launched bombings in kyiv. I believe in this OM, in the players I coach », said De Zerbi at a press conference this Friday.
De Zerbi: “If we all go in the same direction, we will be able to overcome the problems”

If we let ourselves get caught up in anxiety, it will be harder (…) We have a strong team, we know what we have to do to progress. Me, but the players and the club in general, do not accept the match against Auxerre. On the ground, it was not enough. I didn’t use strong words. I just took responsibility. »
