This time, for sure, OM are in the midst of a crisis: beaten 1-0 by Lens on Wednesday at the Stade Vélodrome in a late match, the Marseille club have poor results.

For Virginie Phulpin, our columnist, "the club has reached the bottom of the daisies".

EDITORIAL

OM were beaten again last night at the velodrome stadium.

1 to 0 for Lens.

An absolute non-match from the Marseillais.

For you, Virginie Phulpin, in this club, there is now a fire on all floors.   

"There is a big difference between the Marseille supporters and the players. We saw it last night. When the players are on the pitch, they give the perfect illusion of not being there. And when the fans cannot. be at the stadium, they find a way to be present anyway with their inscriptions as gigantic as premonitory of the genre “you are disgusting.” I quote, of course. But we must admit that this is the best summary of match that I have never seen. In fact, the supporters are the only ones playing their role at the moment at OM. Which is funny in a closed session. The players, the team, are worn missing. We had already noticed last weekend when they were defeated against Nîmes. The tone had risen, and they had promised a revolt. All they managed to do was go down in history. stats. 4 shots in total in the match, including one on target. They've never done worse at home since stats started in

football.

The famous slogan 'forever the first' remains a little bit in the throat at the moment.

The only moment of lucidity of the Marseillais came after the final whistle, when captain Stève Mandanda said that a lot of things had to be changed at the club.

It's hard to prove him wrong.  

What does this phrase mean, exactly, he wants to change trainer? 

I don't know if the players have all let go of André Villas-Boas, but some, like Dimitri Payet, still give the perfect illusion.

Otherwise, how is it possible to move so little on a piece of land?

And the coach, what does he say?

"'If you haven't seen a game it's my responsibility. I made my place available last week, I have no problem with that,' Villas-Boas explained at a press conference.  

Ah there is a great collective emulation at the moment at OM.

Each tries to pull the other down, and it works perfectly, the club reaches the level of the daisies.

Will the management part with André Villas-Boas?

She assures us not.

It must be said that it is difficult to expect anything from the president.

We see more the name of Jacques-Henri Eyraud on the banners of supporters demanding his resignation than his shadow on the sidewalks of the city.

The less time he spends in Marseille, the happier he is.

Logical for a president who finds that there are too many Marseille supporters who work at OM.

On Saturday, he put a lot of pressure on the players: he got angry all red.

Obviously, it really scared them.

The president of OM is about as respected in the locker room as physical distancing in the metro during rush hour.

And that is also starting to become a real problem ".
