Eric Di Meco has voiced his strong disapproval of the sanctions imposed on Olympique de Marseille players, specifically the mandatory four-day team lockdown following their embarrassing 3-0 loss to Nantes last week. Speaking ahead of OM’s match against Le Havre on Sunday evening (9 PM), the former Marseille player deemed these measures “stupid.”
Di Meco believes that such “punishments” are not the answer and will not motivate the players to perform better. He further highlighted the difficulty for Marseille to swallow such a defeat when compared to Paris Saint-Germain, whom he described as ‘the best team in Europe for the past two years,’ suggesting that the contrast in performance makes the situation even more painful for the club.

Di Meco Slams “Stupid” Four-Day Player Lockdown at OM
On the sidelines of the trip to Le Havre on Sunday evening (9 PM), Eric Di Meco deemed the sanctions imposed on OM players and the forced four-day team lockdown after their defeat in Nantes (3-0) last week as ‘stupid.’ The former Marseillais believes that the comparison with PSG, ‘the best team in Europe for the past two years,’ is all the more difficult for Marseille to digest.
