Marcelino leaves OM, the revolution is launched

Against all expectations, Marcelino decided to leave OM in recent hours, visibly shocked by the current context. To replace him, Jacques Abardonado was called in to fill the interim role. For his first match on the Marseille bench, he obtained a draw against Ajax Amsterdam (3-3) by making several tactical changes. A disavowal for Marcelino as Daniel Riolo points out.

Thursday evening on the lawn of theajax Amsterdaml’ABOUT played his first match since the start of this new crisis which saw Marcelino resign. It is therefore Jacques Abandonado who replaced him and who has already made strong choices which allowed him to snatch a draw (3-3). Choices that Daniel Riolo sees a disavowal of Marcelino.

“It’s a disavowal of what was done before”

« Barely arrived on the bench, Abardonado sends a clear message: it is the disavowal of what was done before. That means that in the club you had people who didn’t think like the coach who was in place and who insisted during several matches with a certain system. He changes the system, he puts Ounahi, Harit whose return is worth highlighting… the way OM expressed themselves before was not good. After careful consideration there were defensive failures in all directions », explains the journalist from RMC at the microphone of theAfter Foot.

“Their profile will perhaps no longer be retained by temporary workers”

Daniel Riolo continues by highlighting the situation of two recruits, namely Ismaila Sarr et Angel Correa : « After tonight’s match (Thursday Editor’s note), Sarr who was an indisputable starter, Correa who barely arrived and settled into the team, these are guys who will say to themselves are we going to play everything again right now ? While they are not necessarily unworthy. Their profile will perhaps no longer be retained by temporary workers ».
