Marseille Boss Criticizes Mason Greenwood, Former Manchester United Star
Mason Greenwood, the former Manchester United star, is currently working on his career at Marseille. However, his manager, Roberto De Zerbi, recently criticized him following a disappointing home loss to Lille.
Manager’s Criticism of Mason Greenwood
De Zerbi expressed his dissatisfaction with Greenwood’s contribution in that match. He noted that the team failed to perform, saying, “We didn’t string three passes together” and emphasized that “one shot on target for a player like Greenwood isn’t enough.” This commentary stands in contrast to Greenwood’s earlier praise for De Zerbi, who he credited for aiding his development.
Greenwood’s Performance at Marseille
Since joining Marseille last year, Greenwood has shown promise, scoring 11 goals and providing four assists in 19 appearances across all competitions. The 24-year-old has been working to establish himself after serious allegations were dropped against him, which he has always denied.
Prospects for International Play
Former Watford striker Troy Deeney has voiced his belief that Greenwood might still represent England in the future. He commented on Greenwood’s recent acquisition of Jamaican citizenship. Although he hasn’t played for Jamaica yet, Deeney argued that if Greenwood can regain his form, he should be reconsidered for the England national team.
- Greenwood’s performance statistics at Marseille:
- Goals: 11
- Assists: 4
- Appearances: 19
- Deeney’s comments on second chances:
- Believes in not writing off players due to past mistakes.
- Points out the necessity of rebuilding trust for a national team return.
Greenwood’s journey continues under scrutiny, but he remains determined to prove himself and achieve further success this season. His focus now lies on improving his game, with support from his teammates and coaching staff at Marseille.
