Despite OM’s slight delay over PSG in the Ligue 1 standings, Rod Fanni, former Marseillais, still believes in the title.
This Saturday, OM overthrew Stade Rennais on Breton soil, and consolidated their second place in Ligue 1 (1-2, tops, flops and scores). Also a way of putting a little pressure on the shoulders of PSG, by coming back to 4 points behind the current leader, who faces ASSE this Sunday.
If Marseille maintains its chances of bothering Paris for the title, there is a former Marseillais who firmly believes in an achievement by Roberto De Zerbi’s men. Indeed, in the Stephen Brunch show this Sunday on RMC, Rod Fanni, who worked for OM between 2010 and 2015 and between 2016 and 2018, spoke.
“PSG is not that serene”
“I am one of those who believe in the title. For some time now, we have seen a team that keeps the ball. I believe they are the 2nd best team in the championship. Whether they concede a goal or score one, the serenity is always there. In midfield, with Hojbjerg it’s XXL. We can also talk about Rabiot. We have players who are strong in character and calm. Even “average” players like Luis Henrique or others have taken two notches higher. They no longer panic. They are not afraid of losing the ball. It produces play. Everyone can score,” he analyzed.
The former defender also highlighted the real team cohesion that currently reigns in Marseille: “It’s becoming more than a team, it’s becoming a family. When you have these ingredients, a team of friends like in Montpellier (during the title in 2012), it can surprise everyone. I think they have the means to tickle PSG who are not as serene as that.”
