Even if Faris Moumbagna was the man of the week for OM, Christophe Dugarry is still not convinced by the qualities of the Marseille striker.
Faris Moumbagna is coming off his best week with the Olympique de Marseille jersey. The Cameroonian striker scored two decisive goals, a winning header against Benfica (1-0), and a return to equalize in Toulouse (2-2) in added time, which allowed him to receive some praise. “ A scissor like that reminded me of Jean-Pierre Papin”Jean-Louis Gasset even got excited after the match against TFC.
However, Moumbagna is far from having the talent of the 1991 Ballon d’Or. Very far, even, if we are to believe Christophe Dugarry. “He showed such technical limits that it’s almost surprising to see that he can play in Ligue 1”strangled the 1998 world champion this Monday on RMC. “We saw things all the same, it stings the eyes. There are guys who have never played professionally and must wonder how he does it. »
Moumbagna, 4 goals in 14 matches
Dugarry is clearly very skeptical of the former Bodo/Glimt player in Norway, who arrived this winter in Marseille. “He must have qualities. For the moment, he has not been able to show them, added the former Phocaean. If he’s there, he must still have something. » From what we have seen, we can say that Moumbagna is capable of providing presence in the opposing penalty area, and has a rather good ball strike. He is clearly not the finest attacker on a technical level, but a player of this profile can be of service to his team, depending on the scenario of the matches. And his record of 4 goals in 14 matches with OM is far from infamous.
