Genesio, speaking to L'Équipe Football, said the team has managed to resist the end-of-mercato chaos to conserve important players and maintain a coherent squad. The Marseille coach believes the team is sufficiently armed to compete in three competitions this season, but would have liked a more robust squad of Ligue 1-confirmed players.
Genesio also expressed relief that the transfer window has closed, describing it as "long and difficult". He acknowledged that the team's situation is less bad than he feared ten days ago, and that they now have a formed group with opportunities for players to shine. The coach emphasized the importance of continuity in the team's game, stating that this will be their primary objective.
Genesio also discussed the development of young striker Amine Gouiri, who has shown both scoring and playmaking abilities. The coach believes Gouiri has made progress in maintaining continuity in his matches, but still needs to improve in this area.
