Marseille coach accused of not knowing how to use Greenwood

The 1-3 loss to Reims on March 29th saw Marseille drop to third place, and surrender their Ligue 1 title race to PSG. In their last three matches, coach De Zerbi's team lost all. One of the reasons is believed to be that key striker Mason Greenwood is not scoring as regularly as before.

Daniel Riolo, a journalist for After Foot , has criticized De Zerbi for not exploiting Greenwood's potential. The journalist believes that De Zerbi's frequent benching of Greenwood and questioning the striker's attitude and dedication is a big mistake.

Riolo emphasized: "Greenwood cannot come back anymore, he is no longer in the best form. The way De Zerbi manages Greenwood is not effective."

Explaining why he kept Greenwood on the bench, coach De Zerbi said: "He's had a difficult time since he gave birth to his daughter. I don't think he's ever had a season as tough as this one, as a key player for the club. Greenwood's physical condition is declining."

Greenwood was repeatedly crossed out by De Zerbi.

Marseille were once considered PSG's biggest rivals in the race for the Ligue 1 title this season. But now, the club is facing pressure from inconsistent performances, leading to the risk of losing their place in the Champions League next season. Recent poor results have also affected coach De Zerbi's future.

Greenwood has been in impressive form this season and can be considered one of Marseille's best players. However, the former MU star has been regularly criticized by coach De Zerbi in front of the media. Despite efforts to improve the situation over the past month, it seems that the relationship between Greenwood and De Zerbi has not improved.

Marseille will next play Toulouse in round 28 of Ligue 1 on April 7.

The squad revived their careers after leaving Man Utd De Gea, Greenwood and Scott McTominay are all in good form after leaving the "Theatre of Dreams".
