Gennaro Gattuso, the OM coach, surprised everyone when he appeared in front of the media after the defeat in Brest.

Marseille experienced another hitch in Ligue 1 on Sunday evening. The Phocaeans lost in Brest (0-1), bringing their number of consecutive matches without a victory in the league to five. This is their worst series to start the calendar year since 1978.

Gattuso “disappointed” with himself

Times are tough for the Olympians and Gennaro Gattuso has chosen to take responsibility. At the end of the match he declared that he was the first to blame. ” My feelings ? the 1e thing I want to say is that I need to apologize. With supporters and the club. We hit rock bottom. And when you hit rock bottom, you have to take responsibility. They are mine and there is nothing else to say. No need to talk about the referee.”

When it is pointed out to him that he is not helped either by external elements, such as absences or the Clauss case, the Italian retorts: “Disappointed by this situation? I’m disappointed in myself.”

He no longer looks at the top of the rankings

Marseille is now 9e in the ranking, with as much gap on the jump-off as on the 3e. Gattuso warns: “The ranking is getting complicated. Now we have to look behind. Stop talking too much about Europe. You have to focus on taking the necessary points to have peace of mind. You have to concentrate on work and not talk too much. Tonight, the defeat is deserved. The team is in difficulty ».
