Marseille Manager Roberto De Zerbi Calls for Increased Dribbling to Boost Offensive Play

During a recent press conference, Marseille’s head coach Roberto De Zerbi addressed the team’s offensive strategy, highlighting the need for improvement through increased dribbling. After analyzing team statistics, De Zerbi expressed surprise at Marseille’s low ranking in dribbling compared to other teams in the league.

De Zerbi reflected on his past experiences, noting that his previous teams in Serie A and at Brighton were among the top performers in dribbling. He emphasized the importance of adapting to the current players’ strengths while encouraging more dribbling to enhance the team’s attacking potential.

The Italian manager also discussed his tactical choices in recent matches, explaining the offensive roles of players like Amar Dedic and Quentin Merlin. He praised their abilities to drive the ball forward and create opportunities, while acknowledging areas for improvement in passing precision.

As Marseille prepares for their upcoming match against Stade de Reims, De Zerbi’s focus on increasing dribbling could be a key factor in the team’s strategy. With Champions League qualification at stake, Marseille aims to solidify their second-place position in the league standings.
