In front of the press, Roberto De Zerbi gave the reasons for the “commando” training carried out this week. The Italian technician particularly wanted to create links between his troops: “We intensified the things we wanted to work on in training. When we're together 24 hours a day, sometimes it honestly feels good to talk, we're human beings too. When you have breakfast, lunch, dinner with others every day for a few days, you start talking about a little deeper topics. When we live together, it’s not just 2 hours after training and 3 hours after training, it’s more intense on a human level, that also feels good”he declared.
“It’s an idea I’ve had in mind for a while”
OM did not carry out any training during the off-season. The technician considers that this was missing: “We organized this because we hadn't had a training course of this type before the start of the season. Some players arrived after the start of training, others arrived after the transfer window closed. It's an idea I've had in mind for a while. Whether we win or lose, it doesn't change the fact that we are looking for certain elements. I think we are on the right path to obtaining them. »
Roberto De Zerbi certainly hopes that the Phocaeans will show more solidarity against Monaco, as was the case against PSG and against Auxerre.
