The president of OM, Pablo Longoria, burned all his jokers at the head of the Marseille club, according to Eric Di Meco.

The president of OM has ringing ears. The bad season of Marseille, eighth in Ligue 1 and deprived of the European Cup next year, is directly attributed to Pablo Longoria by Eric Di Meco, who confronts the Spanish leader with his responsibilities. “The president said it recently, they were wrong about the summer and winter transfer window, about the choice of the first coach, then his successors. There were a lot of mistakes”he notes in Provence.

“The problem in Marseille is that there have been so many movements of players and coaches in recent years that you inevitably end up paying for italso deplores the 1993 European champion. We were accommodating because the results followed, but when you manage a club this way, the day it goes wrong like this season, you are accountable in cash. » For him, if Pablo Longoria remains the man for the job, this time he has blown all his jokers.

Eric Di Meco overwhelms Pablo Longoria

“I have the impression that President Longoria knows that this is his last chance. He can’t be wrong anymorehe analyzes. Before, he had credit. Not anymore. But I think he’s still the man for the job. There is such a construction site, through his fault, that it must be up to him to manage it. It is up to him to restore the situation. If someone arrived from the outside today, in this microcosm, with all the adventures we have experienced this year, the task would be too complicated. »

Despite all these problems, with insufficient results, a new coach to find and a squad to rebuild, Eric Di Meco believes that everything is not to be thrown away in the OM season: “We cannot say that the season is disappointing, because the results kept the public in suspense until May. The players had this merit. Its very important. There’s nothing worse than those years when you have nothing to play from April onwards. Disappointing, no. But failed, yes. »
