Bruno Salomon : “Cela veut dire que Bordeaux, même si tu les mets sur le terrain, la moitié des joueurs sera complètement claquée en trois secondes… Ca ne sert strictement à rien de jouer ce match”
Bruno Salomon spoke on the continuation of the meeting of the 20th day of Ligue 1 between the Girondins de Bordeaux and the Olympique de Marseille.
“If there is an injustice in playing this game? Yes, I believe there is an injustice. When you see that Bordeaux, in this Coupe de France, could not defend its chances very clearly against Brest, I do not want it to start again. I have the Bordeaux side too which makes me say that I do not want the invincibility against OM at home to fall because of the cases of Covid. The club has been undefeated at home against Marseille for 44 years… On the other hand, what I see is that there is normally a list of 30 players that has been presented to the League. Normally, in this list, you have to present 20 to go to a field. I don’t see why we’re taking so long. In England, the League Cup match between Liverpool and Arsenal, they don’t need to give a figure… They say that it is becoming exponential, that there are a few cases and that it is starting to accelerate… We stop everything, stop, postpone. In addition, we are in a period, in January, when you can still do things. I think we have to keep it right, you settle down, you let the club put out the fire a bit. The physical trainers and doctors of the Girondins asked the players to stay at rest, not to make any efforts. This means that Bordeaux, even if you put them on the field, half of the players will be completely slammed in three seconds… There is absolutely no point in playing this match. You have to be serious! “.
