The Provencals are currently ahead of the “Dogs”, which go six, only two points.
On the eve of the game, Marcel Roberto de Mirby coach told about the mood in the team.
“We worked a lot and prepared well for the game. We saw that enthusiasm returned to the team after the match against Brest. And courage too.
Before that, we went through the period when we were too predictable for rivals. Jonathan Rowa on the edge of the attack can bring us this unpredictability. That’s why I chose him instead of mope for the previous game. Nile is a cleaner attacker, and Jonathan – faster than him, creates more situations. But he can also play on the left.
This week we tried protection with three and four defenders. Let’s see what we will stop in the next game.
For Marseille this season, the system with three defenders and two central midfielders remains the best. We have changed for the match against Brest, and now we can play both so and so. But I am still convinced that for these players it is the best system.
As a trainer, I prefer a system with two wide winger, constant -way defenders and two central defenders. But now the main thing is to respect the characteristics of your own players. The trainer is not very smart unless he does not.
Play a draw? We cannot be satisfied with only one point after this match. It will be a hard game. Lil is a very good team that performed well in the Champions League and in the Championship. We cannot just think about protection and try to get a draw at any cost. We need to concentrate on ourselves, because we are still ahead.
I believe in hard work and appropriate privileges for it. I don’t like to get what I don’t deserve. I always come at a press conference to talk after defeat and make an honest analysis.
If we talk about the Champions League, then I think we deserve it. We are in second place. But the championship has not been over yet, ” – said Italian specialist.
The Lill – Marseille match will take place on May 4, at 21:45.
