Mason Greenwood hauled off at half time of derby clash as Marseille boss fumes ‘I expected a lot more from him’


MARSEILLE boss Roberto De Zerbi slammed the performance of Mason Greenwood after hooking him off at half-time.

They were beaten 3-0 against Paris Saint-Germain last night as they fell six points behind their rivals at the top of the Ligue 1 table.

Greenwood started the game dubbed “Le Classique” on the right-wing but struggled in the opening 45 minutes.

He failed to get into the game and was often pinned back in his own half as PSG dominated.

The one-time capped England international also did not register a shot and gave possession away four times with his passes.

Greenwood was hauled off at the break, with fellow Englishman Jonathan Rowe replacing him.

Asked about the change after the game, De Zerbi said: “Because I didn’t like the way he played.

“If we want to compete for the title we have to push in all matches.

“He’s a good guy but I expected a lot more from him this evening.”

Since joining Marseille in a £26.6million deal from Manchester United, Greenwood has scored six goals in nine game.

But a drought in front of goal has seen the 23-year-old find the back of the net just once in his last six games.

Off the pitch, Greenwood continues to settle into life in France and his girlfriend Harriet Robson is expecting their second child.
