Missing an attacking midfielder — Riolo
“OM needed a big match. Plus this week they did their commando operation, so if you lose it puts your head back in the bag. We must therefore measure the extent to which this victory will be extremely important for Marseille. But will this give any reflection on the play of this team. (…) We understood that away from home they are comfortable playing transition, it's their style, but at home they have not yet found their way of playing other than having an unwavering will. (…) In the midfield there is one too many players. There is a lack of an attacking midfielder, a creative midfielder capable of giving you the last pass. Rabiot has never done that in his life, he must play in front of the defense. It's never been a box to box, he's not fast enough, he has a caravan. (…) In this team I take out Rabiot… TheABOUT must play more, there are good players on the pitch. We need to have more ambition,” declared RMC journalist Daniel Riolo
