Despite the possibility of reaching the group stage of the Champions League, Olympique de Marseille saw its third place in Ligue 1 as a failure. The Marseille club could have aimed higher, especially with better choices last January.
A few weeks ago, it was very difficult to imagine Olympique de Marseille finishing 11 points behind Racing Club de Lens. But Igor Tudor’s men collapsed with three defeats to end the season. The Marseille club thus won a third place in Ligue 1 with a bitter taste. And in particular linked, according to journalist Nicolas Filhol, to the inconstancy of certain players.
Lens made the difference in the transfer window
« What can somewhat sum up the players’ season under Tudor is that there has been a lot of irregularityregretted the specialist of Football Club of Marseille. A player like Balerdi played a lot, he had good times and bad times. The problem is that when he is less well, it shows a lot. A Veretout, your biggest salary in the squad, was very low at the start then he took off and was a strong man at the best moment of the season in January/February. He ends the season a little purring… »
And the midfielder is not the only one concerned. ” Lots of irregular players. You have players who stand out like Mbemba, Rongier or Sanchezquoted the journalist. The side, we do not even talk about it. Clauss and Tavares were the best full-backs in the world in ten games and then it was very difficult. Then the choices made by President Pablo Longoria in January did not help matters. ” Finally to end, I want to talk about the winter transfer windowcontinued Nicolas Filhol. We expected it to be perhaps the most that was even going to make you play for the title with PSG. »
Pablo Longoria: “Vitinha? I remain very confident. He has the characteristics we are looking for. A striker lives off his confidence, especially when it is his first experience abroad. Top scorer in the Europa League and one of the best in the Portuguese league”.

« But ultimately this winter transfer window, it is completely missed! Malinovskyi not at the rendezvous, Vitinha overpaid, not at the appointment. I do not condemn them definitively but I speak of this seasonhe judged, including Azzedine Ounahi. They were three important players that you recruited and who brought nothing. At the same time, Lens they recruited two players, Thomasson and Fulgini, who helped them pass a milestone and get that second place. Lens, they also beat us in the transfer window! “An area where Pablo Longoria is used to shine.
