“I'm going to be sincere: when Roberto speaks, I have the impression that it's me who is speaking. In fact, he manages to externalize certain words that I have deep inside me, but which sometimes don't even come out because you don't externalize your emotions. That's why I think we have the right coach for this club. Roberto and OM are similar, and he is building a team with his values, so that people in Marseille identify with this group.”
