This captain of the Blues who had “trembling” at the Vélodrome

Current OM players are struggling to perform well in front of their home crowd this season. Faced with pressure from the Vélodrome, and contrary to what they show on the outside, they seem to completely lose their means. This explains why they have only won one of the five league matches they have played there so far. But, let them rest assured, they are not the first to completely thwart in this enclosure.

Daniel Bravo, former OM player, has just given an interview to La Provence in which he revealed that a former French international was afraid of finding himself in front of Olympian supporters.

A former OM player “in panic” at the Vélodrome

“It was hard for William Gallas. He became a great player, but at first he had the shakes when he entered the fieldconfided the current BeIN Sports consultant.
He asked me to quickly pick up to give me the ball. He was in panic. The Vélodrome is difficult. He can be extraordinary and carry you. In good times, you can no longer touch the ground. But when it whistles, you have a leaden screed.”

The 84 European champion then admitted that he himself had a little apprehension during his first steps with the colors of OM: “ When I arrived, at 36, it wasn't easy. Some said: “Why do we take old people? » The pressure was not easy to manage, fortunately I did it relatively well because I had a lot of experience. I showed that I was a warrior. I knew very well that Marseille liked it, I managed to get adopted.”
