According to Pablo Longoriathe match against the Greens had all the characteristics of the game wanted by the coach: “a lot of play between the lines, looking for solutions for getting the ball out and looking for the intermediate space”. The Marseille president welcomed the visible progress on the field, the fruit of the work carried out in training, and confided that this match had been particularly pleasant to watch, both for the players and for the managers. “ This is one of the matches that most resembles Roberto. To tell the truth, you saw yesterday (Sunday) that there is work in training, you saw it on the pitch, it's nice for the players, but especially for the coach. It's a good period, even more so after Auxerre. When you are down 3-0 at half-time, you ask yourself questions. It’s true that this international break has been long. (…) Yesterday, to tell you the truth, was one of the matches where I enjoyed watching the team under Roberto the most. I told him yesterday after the match. We see that the players respond well to the philosophy even if we are still far from what he wants to apply. The players are starting to enjoy it more, and so are we as leaders. »
