There is an intense discussion about Arkadiusz Milik. Recently, he plays rarely, in the hit match with Olympique Lyon (1: 2) he entered the field in the 86th minute. This is not the best proof of his place in the team of Jorge Sampaoli, who in addition explains that “playing without a real nine is the best solution for the team.”
In this case, the following spoke, inter alia, Ludovic Obraniak. – Sampaoli did not react after the 60th minute to the team’s problems with. Payet moved from the center of the attack to the left, so no one was in the center of the offensive. Milik should then enter the pitch, because there is still not a large selection of attackers in this team. I believe that sometimes he should adapt to the offensive game system and be happy that he is a ninth – said the former Polish representative.
And French journalists also ask about the Pole. Damien Degorre of L’Equipe said “It’s been three weeks or a month. Why isn’t he? Marseille has one of the best strikers in Europe and is not taking advantage of him.” A Nabil Djellit, a journalist cooperating with, among others of France Football, he wrote shortly: “Sampaoli must stop humiliating Milik …”
Teammates do not see Milik in the line-up, Domenech shocked
As it turns out, Milik is also not very highly appreciated by his teammates. On “L’Equipe du Soir” after the match against Lyon, journalist Bertrand Latour revealed: – I learned that Sampaoli asked some of the more experienced footballers to introduce him to the perfect squad. Milik was not in any of them.
Shocked by this turn of events was, among others present in the studio Raymond Domenech, former coach of the French national team, who is a fan of the Polish talent. This season, Milik played in 12 Ligue 1 games (but only 698 minutes on the pitch), in which he scored one goal. But counting all the games (i.e. including the Europa League and the French Cup), he scored 10 goals in 20 matches (1264 minutes). In total, he played 36 games in Marseille, in which he scored 20 goals and one assist. At the end of the transfer window, there was talk of a possible transfer of the Pole, but as the French inform, it was Milik himself who decided to stay in Marseille. What’s more, he decided to rebuild his position in the team, appearing, among others on additional training.
