Garcia and Payet, when the two men were still in the same camp.

Outside Marseille, Dimitri Payet no longer seems to have much support.

It must be said that the man is a lodger and that he does not hesitate to set fire to each of his media outings.

Long before igniting the PSG-OM Classic this season with his mocking tweets against the capital club, the Marseillais had already set the tone at a press conference on the eve of a hot OM-OL won by the Southerners.

That day, while Rudi Garcia was going to return to the Vélodrome in the shoes of the OL coach, Payet thought he had found the right words to annoy the camp opposite.

“It's weird to see him in the camp across the way.

A few months ago, we were hosting Lyon and, in view of his talk on Lyon players, the supporters, the president, it feels weird.

(…) It's true that I wouldn't like him to talk about us like that, ”he said with a smirk.

"We also have the right to make mistakes about people"

It was not until almost a year later and a documentary from the L'Equipe channel to know Rudi Garcia's reaction.

And it is unfiltered: "If it happens a posteriori, give me the expression, the player has no balls.

You have to come and say it in the face when it's time to say it.

When, at times, there were difficulties with my results and my teams, there are players who have been great.

Because if they didn't agree, we exchanged.

The one who doesn't say anything is that he's a sneaky guy and that he's not a straightforward guy, ”he said before concluding:“ We also have the right to make mistakes on people, obviously ”.
