OM: at the end of a bad week, Thauvin and Villas-Boas step up – football

After 6 consecutive victories in Ligue 1, Olympique de Marseille suffered a serious stoppage with only one point taken in two games. After this poor operation in the race for the podium, winger Florian Thauvin and coach Andr Villas-Boas pounded on the table.

Thauvin frustrated by the latest OM performances.

Presented just a few days ago as a title contender, Olympique de Marseille had a disappointing week with their defeat on Rennes (1-2) followed on Saturday by the draw conceded at home against Reims (1-1 ).

But at some point, we only play sideways or backwards, we never take risks …, pest the French international at the microphone of the Tlfoot channel. That’s a deserved result, that’s all. A lot of things are wrong. We play too sideways, too far back, the last pass didn’t go, there wasn’t enough movement … A lot of things were wrong.

While the dynamic of 6 consecutive victories seems to be definitively halted, the technician called on his troops to react on Wednesday on the Angers field for the last match of the year 2020. We have four days to rest. The problem is mental fatigue. We have one last game before the break where I think we can prove that we are better than, pleaded the Portuguese in front of the media.

During this first part of the season, with the Champions League disputed, the lack of depth of the Marseille workforce was glaring and some executives, like Boubacar Kamara, ended up on the knees. The truce should do good, especially as OM are negotiating to postpone their late league match against Lens, initially set for January 3, January 20, which would allow the Marseillais to gain 3 additional days of rest before resuming face Montpellier on January 6 on behalf of the 18th day …
