Ligue 1: OM, new disaster in sight?

Penultimate in Ligue 1, OM will have no room for error on the Troyes pitch on Sunday evening. Otherwise…

With four defeats in five days, Marseille is in penultimate place in Ligue 1 before the restart. But the schedule that awaits Bruno Genesio’s players, with two consecutive trips to Troyes and Angers, could allow them to bounce back and finally launch their season. At least we must hope so because if the Olympian supporters have been lenient so far, the situation would become electric in the event of another misstep against ESTAC.

“If you lose on Sunday night, there’s fire, I’ll tell you right awayannounces Eric Di Meco on RMC.
OM will take time to get out of this, it will be long and painful. I think everyone understood that. Plus, this season is off to a bad start. You can be in a year of transition or financial crisis, and you are not obliged to take the four planes at the start of the entry championship (Monaco, Paris FC, Rennes and PSG, editor’s note)…”

Eric Di Meco fears for OM

“You could have taken small teams, and with the same squad, the same coach, the same training, you would perhaps have around ten points, and everyone would be happyhe adds. Now, the real level of the team, we understand, it will be average-good, if you have everyone, and if you have everyone in good shape. We knew the problem of this offseason, but we had forgotten that in football, you have injured and suspended people. »

“Suddenly, with the international break, you have several players missing, and there are already two missing, you are in a trance. You have to tinker or try things. And there, suddenly, in matches where you are playing your season, if you are diminished and it does not work…”fears Eric Di Meco. Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Amine Gouiri and Derek Cornelius were injured with their respective selections while Timothy Weah will be suspended this weekend.
