The composition of OM with a surprise

After OM’s new draw on Sunday, when Toulouse came (0-0), Adil Rami, consultant for Prime Video, does not see Marcelino lasting long on the Marseille bench. The Spanish coach’s game plan has reason to be singled out.

Now a TV consultant for Prime Video, at 37 years old, Adil Rami, former OM player, is not at all convinced by the Spanish coach of the Phocaeans, Marcelino. The defender who played for Valencia and Sevilla has met the technician several times in La Liga, and he does not see him adapting to the French championship. Rami once again pressed the person concerned after the pitiful performance of the residents of the Stade Vélodrome during the reception of Toulouse FC (0-0) on Sunday.

“ He’s an old-fashioned coach. I’m not a coach, but I know that he has always done that with this team, his whole career, but here you are at Olympique de Marseille, you are in France, it’s different. Sooner or later he will have to adapt. I don’t see this coach staying until the end of the season. Yes totally. Impossible… », Launched the 2018 world champion on the Prime Video set on Sunday evening.

Rami said to himself “ skeptical » concerning the Marcelino method at the beginning of the month and it is clear that the OM meetings prove the detractors of the coach chosen by Pablo Longoria right. Since the elimination in the 3rd qualifying round of the Champions League against Pana in mid-August, the Olympian team has had a series of four disappointing matches in collective expression. The playing ideas of Igor Tudor’s successor are not yet assimilated by the players or are simply not adapted to a team expected to dominate in this championship.

OM are certainly 4th in the standings after five days, with two victories and three draws, but Valentin Rongier and his teammates can completely sink during the next two shocks against PSG and AS Monaco. The first two dangerous Europa League matches, against Ajax next Thursday, and Brighton, could plunge the club into a real sporting crisis.
