Suicide squad; Olympique Marseille
|
I'm watching Olympique Marseille v PSG; OM managed by none other than Marcello Bielsa.
The commentators have outlined the OM team formation as a suicide squad; 3 defenders,3 in midfield, then one in the hole, then 3 forwards. Apparently they don't bother to defend, they expect to outscore the other team. Ibra and Cavani playing for PSG.
Hmmmmm; will be interested to see how this pans out, given the chat about Bielsa.

BFS would send his team out to defend deep and try their best to only lose 1-0
What is better?

He has only been there manager for less than a year. Why/how can he be leaving for us?

They are 3rd in the table with only the presumably bigger Lyon & PSG ahead of them & average 2 goals a game with a GD of +29. Must be doing something right.

He can bring Payet with him if he wants. And FANNI.
He's quite funny on touch line, living every moment.

Fanni looks seriously good, and Gignac too. 1-0 OM, Gignac header from the far post, not a hoof in sight.

OM defending looking a little suspect. Bielsa playing every ball.

Fanni? Is he the right back? I thought we were linked with him a few years back.

Gignac's a beast. He raped David Luiz twice in three yards before Luiz fell over with a hamstring injury.

Football how it should be, I would be very happy to have him replace BFS!

Very weird setup from Bielsa. Basically nobody on the flanks at all, very reliant on sheer hard work of players to cover the spaces.
Great atmosphere at the game. Better than anything the prem can produce.

True but ain't it refreshing to watch!
