Mason Greenwood is DROPPED by Roberto De Zerbi - just days after Marseille manager's pointed comments about former Man United forward

Mason Greenwood has been dropped by Roberto De Zerbi after the Marseille manager admitted he was unimpressed with the Englishman.

The former Manchester United prospect has had a productive season for the French giants so far, scoring 15 goals in 24 matches to emerge as one of the standout players in Ligue 1.

That said, Greenwood remains a far less influential asset when it comes to Marseille's open play, especially when it comes to his defensive duties.

And while he has scored three goals in his last five appearances, his finishing prowess has not spared him from being axed from Marseille's starting lineup for tonight's clash against RC Lens, days after manager De Zerbi blasted his lacklustre performances.
