Despite two crushing defeats in their last three matches (against PSG and AJ Auxerre), OM do not seem to be calling into question their project built over three years.
After eleven days of Ligue 1, almost a third of the French championship, Olympique de Marseille are in third place. From an accounting point of view, the Marseille club is within the transition times for possible qualification for the next edition of the Champions League.
Except that Roberto De Zerbi has already mentioned the possibility of leaving the ship after the debacle at the Stade Vélodrome against Auxerre on November 8. However, this post-match press conference outing was more like pure communication than a real threat to leave. According to Jérôme Rothen, the Italian technician is well on his way to settling in for the long term. Knowing that since Rudi Garcia, no coach has spent two consecutive full seasons on the Olympian bench.
OM advocates stability
“I hope there is stability in this club, finally. For more than three years now, I have exchanged a lot with Pablo Longoriarevealed the sports consultant on RMC.
I had the impression that he was right and that each time he backpedaled. And this instability was chronic. There, you have the feeling that there is a real turning point, already because he has surrounded himself with men on the ground, and Medhi Benatia is one of them. »
And the former left attacking midfielder continued: “I am happy to see that a big club like Olympique de Marseille is integrating veterans into the management who can contribute. There is a severe lack of him in French clubs, so it’s good that Medhi is there. And then a passionate person like Roberto De Zerbi with all his staff can only do good for Olympique de Marseille. Before the match against Auxerre, I found that in terms of communication and everything he was able to achieve, it was a 100% success. »
