A state of crisis is declared in the ranks of Olympique de Marseille.
With only one victory against the amateurs of Thionville in the Coupe de France (1-0), Olympique de Marseille is having a very delicate start to 2024.
The Marseille club continues to experience disillusionment on a sporting level, and the content offered during the matches does not reassure supporters and observers. Enough to generate strong decisions in the months to come? Bixente Lizarazu wondered about his former club.
OM: “the classic meeting that serves no purpose”
The 1998 world champion is clearly sounding the alarm in Marseille. “ Sports crisis? Yes, here we are, Lizarazu said in Téléfoot. It got off to a bad start with the very rapid resignation of Marcelino and the season is going to be very, very long with Gattuso. Three points in four games is too little. The mini-crises followed one after another, the last one was with (Jonathan) Clauss, the ‘classic’ supporters’ meeting which serves no purpose. »
“ I think these are the limitations of the Longoria system. I still think that. With so many changes, at some point you pay for it with a team that lacks talent and is looking for itself », concluded the former French international. As a reminder, the hypothesis of Pablo Longoria leaving at the end of the season has gained weight in recent weeks in Marseille.
