Certainly, the gap has once again widened between OM and PSG in the standings due to the draw conceded by the Marseillais against LOSC (1-1) when the Parisians disposed of OL (3-1 ). However, the atmosphere is said to be much more competitive in Marseille in recent times and the ambition for excellence that drives Roberto De Zerbi is still strong.
Roberto DeZerbi changed its tactical posture. Since last December 8 and the victory acquired on the lawn of theASSE (2-0), the Italian coach swapped his 4-3-3 for a 3-4-3 which allows his squad to be more balanced and in particular thanks to the pair Valentin Rongier – Peter Emil Hojbjerg in midfield. This was once again the case during the reception of the LOSC at theOrange Velodrome Saturday (1-1).
“It’s been a good month since the training sessions have been at a top level”
Moreover, someone close to the locker room of theABOUT did not hide from Provence the drastic change behind the scenes in recent weeks at the center Robert Louis–Dreyfus. “The training has been at a high level for a good month. Now that we are able to reproduce it a little in a match, we have to put more mischief into it to protect ourselves from an opposing comeback.”
Roberto De Zerbi did not come to OM to be second
Which therefore explains the difficulties recognized for the LOSC par Ngal'ayel Mukau after the draw conceded between the two teams on Saturday evening. “It was the most difficult match we had to play”. Behind the scenes, Robert De Serve would not make tongue-in-cheek regarding his ambitions. He did not sign’Olympique de Marseille to make up the numbers and settle for second place in the championship behind PSG.
