Marseille coach Jean-Louis Gasset encourages Jonathan Clauss to be more impactful for his team.
Wednesday evening, during OM’s match against Nice, Jonathan Clauss, just back from injury, was able to score his 1er goal at the Vélodrome. The former Lens player enjoyed his winning comeback, but he has no time to rest on his achievements. His coach is already behind him to make him do even more.
Clauss “can do better”
At a press conference this Friday, Jean-Louis Gasset declared that he will be particularly demanding with his side during the last matches of the season. “He must bring us his freshness and his excesses. If he becomes a scorer, we take. He is an international player. It must necessarily bring us something more. »
While putting pressure on his protégé, Gasset also recognizes that we should not expect much from the French international for the moment given that he is only just returning to the field. “When a player returns from 5 or even 6 weeks of unavailability, we don’t know how much playing time he may have. It takes the experience and confidence of the player to not relapse. I felt at half-time against Nice that he was tired. We pushed a little and he came out at 68e » he clarified.

Gasset does not want any relaxation
Gasset also spoke about another individuality, in the person of Pau Lopez. He defended him against the criticism he was the target of after his lackluster performance against the Gym: “Thursday he was our hero. It happens in championship matches that players have a worse move. Pau Lopez is a very good goalkeeper and a great professional. He will recover.”
OM faces Lens on Sunday in the championship. Only 8e in the standings, the Marseille team no longer has any chance of winning the Europa via Ligue 1. Despite this, Gasset does not intend to sell out the domestic competition. “Yes, you can never say it’s over until it’s finalized, but we would have liked to take six points, of course. Now we have three points left against Lens, which are very important on Sunday, to get within two points and finish this championship as best as possible in the last three matches.”
