According to Christophe Dugarry, the president of OM must have known what to expect when he received the supporters on Monday at the Commanderie.

Undefeated since the start of the season, Olympique de Marseille faces a sudden crisis. After a very tense meeting with the supporters, unhappy with the content proposed by the Phocaeans during the last meetings, coach Marcelino and president Pablo Longoria would simply consider slamming the door.

Their departures would be a real earthquake for OM, but Christophe Dugarry is not surprised by the turn of events, or at least by the vehemence of the Marseille supporters. “We have known for years that supporters have too much power in France. Leaders are still surprised by this. But Longoria, from the moment you have a meeting like that, what did you expect? »railed the RMC consultant.

The president of OM reaps what he sows and therefore cannot be surprised by this muscular meeting, believes Dugarry, who once again regrets the too much power granted to supporters in French football. “You know that pressure attacks are going to exist. I strongly condemn them, I find it shameful, explains the 1998 world champion. But it’s obvious that there will be pressure. Unfortunately, this is the role that the supporters have given themselves. We don’t sanction them, we let them do what they want and when they want. »
