Pierre Ménès delivered his analysis of the draw between Olympique de Marseille and RC Strasbourg at the end of the 18e day of Ligue 1 (1-1). Leonardo Balerdi (25 years old) takes his place.
OM ended a frustrating week yesterday by being held up by RC Strasbourg at the end of the 18e day of Ligue 1 (1-1). Already eliminated in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France by LOSC on Tuesday on penalties, Roberto De Zerbi's men failed to get the better of an Alsatian team which took four points out of six possible this season. .
Ménès skips the refereeing controversy
If he completely ignored the refereeing controversy raised by Pablo Longoria at the final whistle concerning in particular the penalty forgotten by Bastien Dechepy following a foul on Jonathan Rowe at the end of the match, Pierre Ménès did not miss Leonardo Balerdi . Struggling in the duel with Emmanuel Emegha, who cheerfully challenged him after his goal, the OM captain fell back into his ways, leaving his match on several occasions and displaying a certain aggressiveness.
-“One day, someone will shut up”
“Balerdi, I say unbearable because this player will one day end up in big trouble. His attitude on the pitch is unacceptable. You cannot, every time there is a group come and fight with your adversaries, provoke, cajole, open your big mouth… One day, I think someone is going to shut it. Maybe that will earn him a few suspension matches… But really, it does a disservice to Balerdi, who can be a very good player but when he loses concentration like that, sometimes he does anything, which happened to him again this evening. »
