Medhi Benatia is not the type to keep her tongue in her pocket. Since he arrived at the head of the sport in the south of France, he has never hesitated to step up to defend the interests of his club. Like when after a crazy victory on the pitch at Olympique Lyonnais, he directly attacked the referee of the match, which ultimately earned him several suspension matches. But he also does not hesitate to point the finger when things go wrong in his club.
“That is unacceptable”
Yesterday, he was invited on the airwaves of RMC Sportthe opportunity for him to look back on one of the notable moments of the start of the season, the heavy defeat at home against Paris Saint-Germain 3-0. An event that he obviously didn't appreciate: “We want to put ideas in place, give this confidence to the coach and we know that it takes time. But you can't have a non-match, lack personality, combativeness like against Paris Saint-Germain in front of 65,000 people, that’s unacceptable,” he complained. The players undoubtedly got the message, and De Zerbi appreciated the support.
