After the victory in Nantes (1-2) on Sunday, Roberto De Zerbi spoke to the supporters of Olympique de Marseille. The Italian coach did not like the behavior of certain fans who left at half-time of the Classic.
For Roberto De Zerbi, it was time to empty his bag. The Olympique de Marseille coach took advantage of his post-match press conference to address the supporters on Sunday evening. Following the victory in Nantes, the Italian did not hesitate to lecture the fans who had left the Vélodrome at half-time of the Classique, when Paris Saint-Germain was already leading 0-3 (final score). Described as Footix by La Provence, these supporters received a message from the Italian coach of OM.
« I want to address the people of Marseillebegan Roberto De Zerbi. You, it's normal, you are journalists, you write, but I want to address the people of Marseille. I want to say that my team is made up of good people, people who have human values, who suffered all week from this defeat and that they came here to take the three points. It's not something easy in this stadium either. »
« Construction takes time. We will have to succeed in overcoming these obstacles, in overcoming the difficulties, sometimes this will involve defeats.warned the former Brighton coach. For some players too, it means, with the style of play that I advocate, going beyond your limits. We are not always used to this type of football, but I still want to emphasize the very high level of this team. And so there you have it, even if we can sometimes win or lose, what we really want is for the supporters to be happy. »
De Zerbi judges the public too harsh
« So obviously it saddens us, it annoys us to see the supporters unhappy. Obviously we know that there were people who left the stadium against PSG after the first period, that's not something we want. We want to offer happiness to our supporters and therefore we must not forget that this OM was born two months ago, that we are second, that last year the club finished eighth and these are objective facts and I think the players shouldn't put up with this too much either. They really try to do their best », defended the Marseille coach, apparently surprised by the demands of the Marseille public.
