I am not entirely sure what to think.OM was doing very well at the beginning of the season, and they were very close in points with OL.Then after one match it went downhill from there (I can't recall what match that was).
It was that demoralizing massacre at the hands of an in-form Lyon (they lost 1-4). Them came a string of losses and ties for Marseille. Until that moment, at least, Marseille were only three points adrift of first place.
I think the effect of that loss was similar to the effect that Lyon's loss to Bordeaux in January. It started a very bad chain reaction that's difficult to stop.

Ribery is gone if you guys fail to qualify for the Champions League next season.
As for Cisse, it's unlikely that OM will try to keep him. The crowd has stopped booing him though.

Maybe Lille can get Cissé.Odemwingie hasn't been producing enough goals.

Lille deserve better than Cisse.

Would Cisse's recent goals sway Marseille to purchase him?
I hope not. I don't think Cisse is reliable enough for OM if they want to seriously challenge for the title next year.

Cisse has been going through a rough spell but i wouldn't necessarily write him off completely. when he gets his confidence back he could be lethal.

We could'nt expect Cissé to score goals after goals, after jsut coming back from some serious injuries like he did. He just needs time to find his level. But not at 12M Euros.

Ribery again talks about a potential transfer. OM qualifying for the CL would certainly help keep him.

OM should sign Cisse. the club does want him but they want Liverpool too lower the value. Cisse will be lethal next season trust me. he has scored 15 goals since he recovered from his horrific injury.
he can be a frustrating player but he scores goals..

If we hold on to Cisse and Ribery we don't need any more attacking players. Even if Ribery leaves, we have Valbuena who is looking very promising.
A RB, a CB, and a CDM to help out Cana and I'll be very happy with the mercato.

I hear that Madrid is after Nasri. At this rate you guys wont have much of a team to compete in the CL with. It's ashame really, I was looking forward to the competiton next year.

Good news about Faty. I like him, and I think Rennes made a mistake by not playing him more regularly.
Re: Nasri - we've qualified for the CL. Lyon are imploding. I don't think we'll sell him now. At least one more year, and if we do well, more than that.

nasri's far too levelheaded to go to RM... he's getting ready to live the adventure he's dreamed of all his life certainly (CL with OM + les bleus) and he's not going to chuck it all out the window and do an anelka on hisself.
as for OL imploding, i think rumors of our demise are greatly exaggerated! :rolleyes:

I have never watched Cana played in French league, my son’s and I, are big fan of him, and we watch every game that he played for Albania. My question is; does he play with such a big hart for OM, as hi plays for Albanian NT?

Cana plays with heart and soul every minute of every game. He's the sort of player that every club needs - he is to OM as Terry is to Chelsea, Gerrard is to Liverpool, and Gattuso is to Milan.
It would be a huge mistake to sell him. You notice when he's out of the lineup, and the team is not the same.

Indeed.
As for Nasri, im glad to hear the rumors are unfounded. To develop into that class #10 that les bleus need, his place should be at Marseille, i feel for at least another 2 years.

One more question; it seams that you know a lot about Lorik Cana, is any way that you can watch OM games in US?
