OM café

I think between Peguy, Bamogo and Koke we can solve our goal scoring problems. Allez L'OM !


Don't forget... Marlet :eek:

[RandyNA74]

Well it doesn't look like we had a fighting chance. Oh well, at least we gave you a decent run for your money for a short while. Luyundula is turning into a great player for you.

[iougs]

Well well well,

that was a great game for OM ... They played really well.

What a goal by Battles !

Congrats to OM ... they seem to be on the right track ... now, they just have to win in their own stadium.

So true. You would think with the noise and intense support that is always present @ the Velodrome that OM would dominate at home.

The problem is that intensity can turn against you fast when things don't go well....

nice links marsiglia
i liked thath:
What followed was to go down forever in the annals of the FIFA World Cup. The legendary Giuseppe Meazza stepped forward to take the penalty looking full of confidence. As he went to place the ball on the spot, the string holding up his shorts broke, leaving them to fall around his ankles and sending the bumper crowd into fits of laughter. Unperturbed, the Inter Milan man pulled his shorts up with his left hand and placed the ball on the spot with his right, then took his run-up and, still holding his shorts up, planted the ball into the back of the net for what would turn out to be the winning goal. Brazilian goalkeeper Valter, no doubt perplexed by the whole incident, did not even move. Romeu got a goal back for the South Americans three minutes from time, but it was too little too late. The Vélodrome had provided a show worthy of Marseilles, a city renowned for its love of all types of excess.

and that:
The club’s patch-work history has been embroidered by the likes of legendary strikers Josip Skoblar and Jean-Pierre Papin, lavishly-skilled individuals such as Roger Magnusson and Chris Waddle, player-makers of the class of tiny giant Alain Giresse and Enzo Francescoli, colossal defenders like Karl Heinz Forster and Carlos Mozer, all coaxed and coached by some of the world’s great managers, including Franz Beckenbauer, Tomislav Ivic and Raymond Goethals. One of the city’s most celebrated sons, Zidane, still recalls the emotion he felt when standing on the curved banks of the Vélodrome watching his idol Enzo Francescoli. Perhaps in homage, Zidane’s oldest son also happens to be called Enzo.

I must give Troussier credit because I VERY MUCH opposed his "all the players we have are fine" and was hoping for a mad dash of players to come in in January.

He seems to have gotten them working very well as a unit and more specifically in ATTACK. They also have a knack for scoring double goals in the first half that does wonders for their momentum for the rest of the match.


And, they won at the Velodrome finally!!

[om4ever]

Some players became more productive with Troussier such as Batlles, Cheyrou, Luyindula, Marlet, and Olembe. They got a chance to show their abilities and it worked well.

We were very close to lose Batlles in the winter market.
Cheyrou need a few more matches to maintain his capabilities.
Still, Marlet succeed with one out of ten chances.
