While he takes Pablo Longoria’s next departure for granted, Daniel Riolo believes that his adventure at OM is ending badly.
Olympique de Marseille continues to sink into crisis. And the defeat conceded to Brest (0-1), Sunday, at the end of the 22e day of Ligue 1 launched new major maneuvers. Like Marcelino in September, Gennaro Gattuso, feeling helpless, preferred to give up and Pablo Longoria and Medhi Benatia this time decided to call Jean-Louis Gasset to the rescue for a five-month mission.
But these movements call for others according to Daniel Riolo. According to the RMC polemicist, the fate of Pablo Longoria also seems sealed and his departure is only a matter of weeks. “The end of the season will make Frank McCourt face his responsibilities in terms of decisions. Which will perhaps be facilitated by, quite simply, the desire of Pablo Longoria to do something else and leave since he has put himself in a position of failure this year”he confided in After Foot on Monday.
“Longoria sank like coaches sank”
His beginnings when he had to succeed Jacques-Henri Eyraud had nevertheless brought hope, but the Spanish leader now appears out of breath, without ideas. “However, after a start that I considered with fanfare at the head of OM, I really liked his presidency, I have the impression that the page is turning. And as is often the case at OM, in a somewhat dramatic way. The pages often turn like this in Marseille. It often ends badly,” did not fail to highlight Daniel Riolo.
The RMC journalist is also not convinced by the arrival of Jean-Louis Gasset, who is coming out of a traumatic experience at the head of Côte d’Ivoire. According to him, it is only a choice ” by default “. “Longoria sank like coaches sank and like everyone ended up sinking at OM this year,” he added again, worried about the future as the Ciel et Blanc are now seven points behind the European places.
