Play. OM, this permanent soft focus
The Marseille game plan was never clear. A back four, certainly, but frankly wobbly, with Andre Ayew in an unpublished left-back, a Giannelli Imbula always alone in the world in line with the environment, and too loose forwards in the defensive withdrawal. It is especially in the attitude that OM lost to solidarity and organized Lorient, but fragile on set pieces and long balls. The hake have not looked back since they were able to exploit the Marseille defensive errors. Many, and unforgiving to this level.

Players: Jordan Ayew regaled, Nicolas Nkoulou sank
Two goals, decisive action, activity at all times: Jordan Ayew did not miss his return to the Vélodrome. The Ghanaian striker was the great architect of a successful Lorient also inspired by Romain Philippoteaux, passer and scorer, and Didier Ndong, tireless in the middle. Benjamin Lecomte has also played a major role in his sorties and a free kick from Dimitri Payet.
The islanders, who initiated the reaction of OM on foot stopped two shots, was the only Marseille satisfaction with Andre Ayew. Nicolas Nkoulou, directly or indirectly involved in at least three goals Lorient, symbolized the Marseille defensive bankruptcy. We will not forget Florian Thauvin replaced soon halftime after first forty-five minutes unworthy of the highest level.
The stat: 11 goals conceded in four games, it’s open house at the Velodrome
Paradoxically, it is only against Lyon, the best attack in the championship, OM managed to keep a clean sheet in his last four outings at the Velodrome (0-0). The rest? Three goals conceded against Caen (2-3), the other three goals conceded against PSG (2-3), and now five face relegation yet Lorient at kickoff (3-5). Marseille defense is like a sieve.

What could change everything
We will first talk about the choice of Bielsa. Including Rod Fanni sanctioned after his mistake in Nantes (1-0) and left on the bench against Lorient. Aligning the axis, Marcelo Bielsa could shift Jérémy Morel left and Andre Ayew to use his preferred position in the middle. But Ayew has not missed his side match. So we will mainly talk about the mistake from Nicolas Nkoulou allowing Lorient to regain the advantage a minute after the first Marseille EQ. He literally sealed OM then appeared to reverse the situation.

The decla Marcelo Bielsa (coach of the OM)
“If OM is in crisis course?.”
The question: Bielsa is he the only one responsible for the crisis at OM
?
No, but the Marseille coach has a great responsibility for his tactical choices are enough to confuse his players. André Ayew left back, Mario Lemina first positioned high in midfield leaving Giannelli Imbula only to recovery, then right back to the exit wound Brice Dja Djedje (29th), while Rod Fanni, an option to lateral position, is languishing on the bench. There is not much logic in that.
In the second half, the Argentine technician went even further. After entering Michi Batshuayi (69th), his team has evolved into a configuration on the edge of suicide, with only four players for defensive purposes – counting Imbula – and six offensive elements (Batshuayi, Ocampos, Payet, Gignac, Ayew and Alessandrini). The most incredible in this story? It was about to walk, for OM returned from 0-2 to 2-2 and 2-3 to 3-3.

Bielsa has not made the right choice, but it has not made any more than bad choices. If his tactic is questionable, the attitude of his players is also the. The goals conceded by OM are mostly due to individual defensive errors, including two conceded in the first fifteen minutes of the game that greatly complicate the game of Marseilles. The second period, despite a significant response and a renewed aggressiveness, confirmed this. And suggests that Bielsa is not solely responsible for this incredible rout Lorient. Crisis synonym for OM.
