Journalist
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 staff of 10 Sport, after a diploma obtained at the International Institute of Communication in Paris.
When it comes to criticizing Luis Enrique, Daniel Riolo is usually at the forefront. Clearly not convinced by the current PSG coach, the RMC journalist very rarely minces his words. This was again the case when discussing the subject of Vitinha's positioning in Paris. Luis Enrique was thus accused of making a complete mistake with the Portuguese midfielder.
After a complicated first season at PSG, Vitinha took on another dimension during the last financial year under the orders of Luis Enrique. But is the Spaniard using his midfielder in the best possible way? Daniel Riolo don't think so, thus criticizing the choices of the coach of the PSG regarding the positioning of Vitinha on the ground. While the Portuguese is regularly used as a number 6, the journalist RMC would like to see him more as number 8.
“Luis Enrique burned him by putting him in front of the defense”
Criticizing Luis Enrique regarding the case Vitinha, Daniel Riolo thus blurted out during L’After Foot : « Vitinha's position is essential because he is PSG's best midfielder. Luis Enrique burned it by putting it in front of the defense. (…) In front of the defense, if he is still there, I think it is an error. I never thought that it was his position, I am convinced that he is better if he is 8. If he is 8, he will annoy OM even more because he has his shooting quality, his passes are good, he will be able to launch the attackers on the rapid recovery phases. If he insists on putting him in front of the defense, I think it's a mistake ».
“It’s been a year since I said it, but hey, the other guy does what he wants”
« This is his place, this is where he must play. And I think that's why he lost it. It's been a year since I said it, but hey, the other guy does what he wants and doesn't listen to anyone anyway. Then maybe he feels that he doesn't have many people to put in front of the person, but in these cases he had to recruit », then explained Daniel Riolo.
