Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
Has Roberto de Zerbi finally found his typical team? After his victory against Lens, the OM coach renewed his starting eleven with the same result. Arriving this summer, Adrien Rabiot took his place in front of midfield, alongside Mason Greenwood. Despite the Marseille club's victory against AS Monaco this Sunday, Daniel Riolo underlined the limits of the French international in this position.
Is this the effects of the mini-course organized by Roberto de Zerbi ? Whatever the case, OM showed a combative face to overcome theAS Monaco au Velodrome. For this meeting, the technician had aligned his team in 3-4-2-1 with Adrien Rabiot higher up the pitch than usual. But for Daniel Riolothis is not the position in which the French midfielder flourishes the most.
Riolo points out a problem with Rabiot
« We know what I think of him, but he remains a good football player. On the other hand, never in his life can he play where he played this evening. Putting him in this position tonight is really not doing him any favors. This is not where Rabiot will be useful. If you play with these three, they have an identical profile » said Daniel Riolo.
“His mother didn’t want it. »
According to the journalist, Adrien Rabiot could have hoped for better if he had not followed his mother's advice. “ Why do I often criticize Rabiot? Because this guy had everything to be in front of the defense. His mother didn't want it, so neither did he. And I think that ruined all his possibilities. Higher up, he doesn't accelerate, he doesn't know how to speed up the game, so from the moment you have Hojberg and Rongier who can play up front, you can't have three guys like that. Because OM didn't create enough, tonight they didn't create enough play! It's a very important victory for OM, but there are still many questions unanswered… » confided Riolo during theAfter Foot this Sunday.
