In today's edition, Provence studies the game deployed by OM in recent weeks. The daily notably questioned consultant Daniel Bravo about the counter-attack quality of Roberto De Zerbi's team: “It’s a little surprising. We always said that De Zerbi was about possession of the ball, that he played well, that built the actions. In fact, I find that OM are a formidable counterattacking team. It is therefore logical that at the Vélodrome, faced with more cautious and grouped opponents, OM has difficulty finding the solution. OM is a team that likes depth and space, moving quickly forward; she has more difficulty when having to play in small spaces”he confided.
“It’s basically a question of trust”
The counter-attacks do not correspond to the game generally deployed by Roberto De Zerbi's teams. Bravo considers that the Olympians still lack the confidence to put in place the real football desired by the technician: “It’s not the De Zerbi style we knew. Even he must be amazed and must work on it. To be better at the Vélodrome, he must be better in possession and find the solution in small spaces. OM has the players for it. It's basically a question of trust.”he added.
OM will host Monaco on Sunday evening for a decisive match for the top of the table. After the green, it will be interesting to see if the Phocéens manage to control better than against PSG and Auxerre, two matches to completely forget…
