Olympique de Marseille are going through a turbulent period. Beaten 2-0 by Stade Brestois 29 on Friday in Ligue 1, the club delivered a worrying performance, reigniting concerns about their mental strength.
OM are searching for solutions to turn things around. A coaching change and major shifts within the club’s management have taken place, but the problem lies elsewhere. Speaking on RMC, Daniel Riolo did not hold back, describing an OM side that is “sick.” According to the pundit, the issue goes far beyond tactical choices or squad quality.
