The page must quickly be turned. Five days after the slap received against Paris Saint-Germain, Luis Henrique was present at a press conference two days before the trip to Nantes. And the Brazilian admitted that this defeat hurt: “After the Paris match, it was difficult. Including in the locker room, it was difficult to talk among us players but we had to turn the page and show on the pitch that we are capable of regaining the upper hand. We must give an answer quickly, for ourselves and for the supporters to show that we have objectives for this season. We need to forget what happened and move on” he confided in comments reported by La Provence.
Difficult to talk between the players after the slap against PSG!
And to bounce back, Marseille number 44 did not hide his joy at finding Quentin Merlin: “With Quentin Merlin, I have a connection that started last season and especially in pre-season. It exists with other players, but with him it's true that it's quite common. His return is good news. I won't say that I missed it because I was able to connect with the other players. We must not forget that I changed my position a little compared to last season and even at the start of the season and that is why it is important to maintain the connection not only with a player but with everyone the world.”
He then continued: “I'm very happy with the style of play we have. It's favorable for me. I have the ball, the possibility of making choices, of being decisive and I intend to be even more decisive and important for OM. It's annoying to have so many injured. The coach will be able to talk to you better about it, the roles, and the gaps that each absence causes. We just have to give, run and work even more to fill these gaps. I can take more risks. I try to do it in training and I will have to show it on the pitch. I know I need to be more decisive and show more” he declared before concluding on the problems encountered at the Vélodrome: “We score more and we win more away. There may be a little anxiety at home with the pressure from the supporters and we will have to work more. Maybe it’s mental work that we need to do.“
