Mason Greenwood Criticized by Roberto De Zerbi After Early Substitution in PSG Defeat
After Marseille’s 3-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain, manager Roberto De Zerbi was unreserved in his criticism of Mason Greenwood. At halftime, with Marseille behind three goals, De Zerbi made a daring double substitution and substituted Greenwood. Later, the Italian manager expressed his disappointment with Greenwood’s strategy, implying that the forward lacked guts on the field.
The Expectations of De Zerbi Unfulfilled
“I didn’t like the way he played.” De Zerbi told reporters when he explained the decision. We must give it our all in every encounter if we are to contend for the championship. Although he is a good man, I had much higher expectations for him tonight.
The critical evaluation highlights De Zerbi’s high standards as he attempts to assemble a Marseille team that can fight for the championship. Given the focus on Greenwood’s future performances, Marseille supporters will be hoping for a better performance from the former Manchester United forward.
