After trying different sports, Thibault turned to a career as an amateur footballer. When making a choice between becoming a professional footballer and a journalist, the qualities tipped the scales to one side. Here he is now in the editorial team of 10 Sport, after a diploma obtained at the International Institute of Communication in Paris.

For over a year now, Daniel Riolo has had Bradley Barcola in his sights. Despite good performances from the PSG striker, the RMC journalist is clearly not convinced at the moment. Riolo has made this known again, even explaining that he appreciates an OM player more than Barcola on certain aspects.

Visibly liberated by the departure of Kylian Mbappéthe Frenchman began to pile up the goals, he who today has 10 goals in Ligue 1, enough to make him the second best scorer in the championship behind Jonathan David. But despite these performances of Barcola, Daniel Riolo is still not conquered. He has been criticizing him for several months now on the microphone of RMC…

“I love what Greenwood does with the ball”

But who is the favorite of Daniel Riolo between the playerABOUT and that of PSG ? The question was asked by Provence and he replied: “ The question is difficult. Both can do better and I’m not a fan of their first part of the season but not for the same reasons. Technically, Greenwood’s background interests me more than Barcola’s. I love what Greenwood does with the ball using his legs, they seem springy ».

“His attitude is not always good when he has to defend”

Despite everything, Daniel Riolo also has things to say about Mason Greenwood. He then continued, confident: “ But I find him lazy, his attitude is not always good when he has to defend, while Barcola runs a lot more. Both are irregular, they can score a superb goal and then completely disappear ».
