' I am optimistic '

The arrival of Roberto De Zerbi on the bench of Olympique de Marseille generates a wave of optimism among observers of the club.

A flamboyant game, inspiring precepts and management that seems to be unanimous: Roberto De Zerbi arrives in Marseille with a flattering image. Having become one of the most highly rated technicians on the market after his experiences at Sassuolo and Brighton, the Italian could be the face of renewal at theOM.

The De Zerbi era has begun a few days ago since the Olympique de Marseille players returned to the Commanderie to begin their summer preparation. The first contacts between De Zerbi and the players were positive. As was the official presentation of the OM coach.

“Everything is in place for him to succeed”

Asked to give his first impressions, Rolland Courbis did not hide his optimism. I am optimistic simply because I am charmed, confided the former OM coach, consultant for RMC. I listened very carefully to his press conference. Given his vision of football, I would not be surprised, or even very disappointed, if he did not succeed.”

“Everything is in place for him to succeed, especially with a schedule without the European Cup and recruitment prepared since his arrival. I don’t see why this boy, who I find endearing with a very pleasant vision of football, wouldn’t succeed at Marseille. I imagine OM finishing in the top four, and not necessarily in fourth place,” concluded Courbis.
