OM: “We have the same ideas to get out of this difficult situation”, Genesio “reassured” by his meeting with the leaders

“It’s going very well and you?” : before facing Troyes this Sunday (8:45 p.m.), in Aube, during the sixth day of Ligue 1, Bruno Genesio is doing well, thank you for him. After a series of four defeats, the OM coach had the leisure to recharge his batteries during the international break, but also to speak with his leaders, the sporting director Greg Lorenzi and the president, Stéphane Richard, whom he describes as “brilliant and attentive”.

The opportunity to make an important point with them for the rest of the operations: “We had to analyze this first cycle of matches. We are in an emergency situation, we must stop this negative series of four defeats, he said this Friday at a press conference. The season will be difficult. We must ensure the essentials but we must not only see this season. I needed to have a medium-term vision, on next season, the project for next season so that OM regains a status that suits it. I was reassured. We are aligned with the sports management and my president. We have the same ideas to get out of this difficult situation and on the necessary and essential steps to build something lasting,” he swears.

Relaunched on the vision of its leaders, Genesio assures that “it is not him who should be asked the question. I know where I want to go with OM. I have ambition personally and for the club. The situation is difficult. We have to manage the emergency. That's the first thing. We must break the negative spiral and find a calmer area in the ranking. Then, we must determine the OM project. With whom and how? An OM composed mainly of players trained here? A team made up of stars? We have made good progress with the President,” he assures, affirming that “the good times must arrive”.

Without Cornelius and Højbjerg, with Gouiri and Abdelli?

The sooner the better. The infirmary is less busy than expected, with Cornelius and Højbjerg injured, but reassuring indications for Gouiri and Abdelli. That’s already it… For the rest, Bruno Genesio wants to be combative.
