OM: Bruno Genesio, the decision that does not pass at all

After OM’s defeat against Paris FC (2-3), Sunday evening in Ligue 1, Walid Acherchour criticized a tactical choice by Bruno Genesio.

Should we be worried about OM? After starting this 2026-2027 season with a card against Strasbourg (4-0), the Olympian club has just suffered two defeats in a row, against Monaco (2-0) and Paris FC, last Sunday at the end of the 3e
day of Ligue 1.

Coming out of this new defeat against the PFC, Walid Acherchour pointed out a tactical choice by Bruno Genesio. According to the RMC Sport journalist, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Himad Abdelli are not made to play together in a two-man midfield.

“Hojbjerg and Abdelli cannot play together”

“Hojbjerg and Abdelli cannot play together in this environment because they need a player who runs for them”launched Walid Acherchour in After Foot on Sunday evening.

And to add: “I would like to see Nnadi on his return from injury to add more muscle, with Weah higher up the pitch to bring speed on the wings, and put Bamo Meïté on the right side. This would put Harit back at the heart of the game. All the opportunities come from him. They need that, for lack of anything better…”
