After the 0-0 draw at Lens, Christophe Bouchet has asked for patience from the club's fans.

"We have a great team this year,"

"But you have to bear in mind that we made a lot of changes in the summer and the team needs to adjust."

"We are still improving and I think, by December, we will have a very competitive team." said Anigo.

What I would like to say: it’s better to work in silent rather than giving promises.

After the 0-0 draw at Lens, Christophe Bouchet has asked for patience from the club's fans.

"We have a great team this year," (already said, still to convince us)

"But you have to bear in mind that we made a lot of changes in the summer and the team needs to adjust." (You didn't have to make so many changes)

"We are still improving and I think, by December, we will have a very competitive team." said Anigo. (you said the same thing two month ago)

What I would like to say: it’s better to work in silent rather than giving promises. ( it's what your doing since the begining!)

les paroles les paroles....

What do you reckon ZoltaR?

I feel pretty confident that l'ASM can get a win - depsite their poor form. This is just the type of game they need to get back in the title frame.

Marseille not been playing too well aslo, but anything can happen i guess. ;)

[ZoltaR]

you know i still don't really know what we can expect about OM this year.
i also think anything can happend , however, the monaco team seems way stronger than marseille...
i hope the bad rainy weather will not influence the game.And i hope this will be a higher level game than former ones....

IMO - You wrong to get rid of Mido. He fell out with just about everyone but I guess it was best to make some money on him.

The sad thing is that Marseille haven't used the money to buy a new striker. You can't get rid of a player like Drogba and don't bring anyone in. L'OM have to be looking at a new forward in Jan. They needed one at Lens last week desperatly.

Maybe even someone on loan? Monaco have done well by getting Saviola for the season. Its a shame Marseille couldn't have done this.

ask the staff ^^
i agry, but we bought a striker : luyindula, but he really does not confirm is former level in Lyon...
i think we need a good striker indeed but also a good OFF mildfielder.( i mean a real international , not a marlet or luyindula-like fakie international)

For me Luyindula is not a striker - more a centre forward.

He is better with an out and out striker. With Elber at Lyon he was outstanding.

Yeah......I will admit you need a good player to create chances for you - like a Juninho at Lyon.

What about bringing a player like Carlos Tevez to the club - I wouldn't be too suprised if L'OM can pull it off - we did with Ronaldinho. ;)

I gotta think that getting rid of Mido was the best decision. Marseille was what, his third team in 4 years. Take into account how quickly he fell out of favor at Ajax. The kid has been a problem everywhere he went, and he thought he was to good, not only for Marseille, but for the whole french league. He's a headcase.

It's well documented this team needs a forward. Against Lens and St Ettienne they were woeful. I'd take someone on loan in an instant. Save money for next summer's transfers. But I cannot think of any out of favor strikers who would really help this club. It'd be nice if Chelsea let a struggling Kezman go out, but I just don't see that happening.

[hangthadj]

What about bringing a player like Carlos Tevez to the club - I

don't get my hopes up.

[Rima067]

What worries me for tomorrow's match is that Monaco score goalS and OM don't.


I'd actually be content with a 0-0 draw. At least if OM aren't going to score goals, let's have them not concede them either.

Wasn't there talk in the summer of getting Tevez or someone from Argentina? Can't they afford him now. I am actually a little dissapointed we didn't get Wiltord.

[SportBoy333]

If I remember correctly OM was not one of the finalists to get Wiltord. They weren't even mentioned as a potential place he would end up. The only French teams mentioned were OL and ASM. How OL were able to land Wiltord you have to give credit to their president who went after him hard. As for Tevez of all the teams mentioned to potentially land him I havent heard one French team mentioned.
