OM lost to Auxerre this Friday evening in Ligue 1. A new worrying debacle at home even if for Adrien Rabiot, the title remains possible.
OM are still struggling at the Stade Vélodrome. Just a few days after having already suffered a heavy defeat in the Classic against PSG on home soil, the Marseille club sank again, this time against Auxerre. The Burgundians taught Roberto De Zerbi's collective a lesson, for a final victory of 3 goals to 1. Despite an honorable ranking, it was the beginning of a sporting crisis which began in Marseille. However, some players think the title is still playable. In any case, it is for this ambition that Adrien Rabiot joined Olympique de Marseille a few weeks ago.
Rabiot, an erroneous observation?
Coming out of the defeat against Auxerre, at the microphone of DAZNthe former PSG player notably indicated: “We see a different team away and at home. The public is normal. When we are OM, we cannot do a performance like that at home. (…) In the end they are not happy, that's normal. We say it among ourselves, the coach knows it too, we deserve these whistles. You have to keep working, there are things to review. We can't play like that. We cannot lose at home against Auxerre when we have different objectives. Auxerre, they are there to play for survival and we are here to play for the title and qualification for the Champions League. It was a day without and it is unworthy of OM's objectives ». This is clear… even if the title seems to be slipping away for the Phocaeans, who would be well inspired to already validate their presence for the next Champions League. When they return from the international break, Roberto De Zerbi's men will pick up strong with a trip to Lens.
