Olympique de Marseille coach Igor Tudor spoke on Friday regarding the season of his central defender Chancel Mbemba.
Arrived last summer in relative anonymity despite his experience at FC Porto, Chancel Mbemba is more than meeting expectations. The Congolese international defender has established himself as one of the great architects of the excellent campaign of Olympique de Marseille. In the same way that the Marseille club can rely on an offensive energy leader in the person of Alexis Sanchez, Mbemba personifies the character of this team in the defensive sector.
Why Mbemba no longer started OM matches
Intractable on the man, lively, alert and capable of disconcerting gestures to score or dribble in the opposing area, Chancel Mbemba has become one of the darlings of the Stade Vélodrome this season. A trajectory that was not enough to make him an indisputable holder – if indeed this notion exists in the methodology of Igor Tudor. Because if the Congolese returned to the starting lineup once morest Troyes last Sunday (3-1), he had not been aligned at the start of the matches between OM once morest Montpellier (1-1) or even Lorient (0-0). And his absence was visible, in the content as in the results. Asked regarding the management of his defender, Igor Tudor made quite enigmatic remarks. As if to kick into touch – which is unusual for him. ” The most important motivation comes from the soul of the players, from their heart. The coach can instill it, but it is the player who is decisive. With Chancel, we talked a lot throughout the year, he is having a very good season Soberly commented the Croatian technician. An answer that does not explain the recent non-tenure of the best defender in the squad./football365.frApr
