On RMC Sport, Rothen said: "Everyone is responsible. We got excited about Greenwood and [Pierre-Emile] Højbjerg, but they are average players. It's up to De Zerbi to find solutions, but he hasn't found any."
And Dugarry called in to say: "[Medhi] Benatia (sporting director) is the one I blame the least. De Zerbi is the one primarily responsible. The leaders did everything they could to make him succeed. He was presented as the savior, but he offered nothing!"
