In recent weeks, Olympique de Marseille coach Jorge Sampaoli has been the subject of criticism for his choices, particularly in relation to the use of center forward Arkadiusz Milik (28 years old, 16 games and 5 goals in L1 this season). Invited to RMC radio on Tuesday, Marseille President Pablo Longoria spoke about this situation.
“On the question of individual cases, of course I speak with the coach after the match, not right away because we are in emotions, it’s not the time to do analyses. We speak the next day. In management players, you have to adapt because each player has a particular management. In the case of Milik, no one can doubt his international level. His statistics speak for him. We need the best Milik to achieve the objectives. But afterwards, it is the authority of the coach, the choices of the coach, a manager cannot enter into the choices of the coach. I have to respect his authority, “explained the Spaniard.
