Returned after the arbitration, Pablo Longoria cried foul at the end of the meeting between OM and RC Strasbourg. More generally, anger has invaded the Marseille club like the exits of Leonardo Balerdi, Geronimo Rulli and even Luis Henrique. For his part, Roberto De Zerbi expressed his total incomprehension regarding French arbitration.
Tired of the arbitration decisions week after week, Pablo Longoria expressed his dismay at the end of the opposition meeting loon au RC Strasbourg. « You have to say stop. The penalty action on Rowe is a scandal. (…) These are too many decisions. I'm not victimizing myself, but we're reaching a point where we can't accept that and I don't accept it. Every weekend it's the same thing. I'm the president, I have ambitions, the whole team is frustrated, so what should we do to change this dynamic? Because every weekend it's the same thing », lamented the president of loon. His trainer is just as distraught.
“I see things that I don’t understand”
« I have nothing more to say than my president. I can just say that I have seen things since my arrival in France that I don't always understand. Not only for us, but also in other Ligue 1 matches, because I follow the whole championship », noted Roberto DeZerbi at a press conference.
“I respect everyone, but there you go”
« I have already said it, I am a foreigner. I arrived here as an Italian in France. I respect everyone, but there you go, I see things, a lot of things that I don't necessarily understand, so maybe it's because I'm not French, but me, the only thing that matters to me here is that I came here only for OM, since I consider the club to be the most important in France, as I have always done since my childhood. And afterward, I think it's up to you to judge, to draw your conclusions, the media are also there to sometimes take a position, have a very clear opinion and judge. So I think it's also up to you to do it », added Roberto DeZerbi. The message is clear.
