I just got confirmation that De Zerbi has dump-trucked several players, including Derek Cornelius. De Zerbi ain't playing… What shocked the Marsielle supporters is that most of these players are under long term contracts and were involved on the pitch… And so it goes… This was made clear before the Aston Villa game. (My cousin is there right now, my source).
Kone doesn't run and track the way Marsch wants him too, which has also lead to breakdowns in our shape and subsequent goals scored against Canada. I think this could be one reason why he hasn't been in the starting 11 for Canada.
Unfortunately, I think his window has already passed. Only one good or decent performance with the Canadian sweater and this is definitely a bad look as well.

Kone is on his 5th club in 4 years. Maybe he needs to be spoken to that way at this point.
De Zerbi’s assessment is fair. Kone does have a tendency to hold the ball for too long, and he is prone to turnover.
