André Villas-Boas was initially optimistic: “I think it's going to be good for Lille. "Then be careful:" it's 50-50. Finally, the play fell on the wrong side: Dimitri Payet is out for the Lille-OM shock, Sunday (9 pm), at the end of the 25th day of Ligue 1.

André Villas-Boas did not want to take risks with his playmaker, victim of a big contracture in a thigh during the defeat in Lyon (1-0), in the quarterfinal of the Coupe de France, Wednesday. Payet was out fifteen minutes from the end.

His replacement Radonjic also in delicacy

Author of nine goals and four assists, Payet is, without any doubt, the best player of OM this season.

His potential replacement on the left wing Nemanja Radonjic is also hampered by pain: he suffers from a pubalgia. Unlike Payet, he is present in the group which moves to Lille this Sunday, but could be operated on. The OM staff will make a decision early next week.
