OM: European ambitions after a good run? 'It's too fragile,' Rothen replies

Summarised by MatchPal
Rothen and Petit argue OM's recent wins against relegation-form sides don't justify European ambitions; the foundation remains too fragile.
Olympique Marseille have won their last three Ligue 1 matches against Troyes, Angers and Le Havre. However, all three opponents are battling relegation — Le Havre sit bottom, Troyes 17th, Angers 14th — raising questions about the quality of the victories.
Former players Jérôme Rothen and Emmanuel Petit have dismissed suggestions that the run justifies European aspirations for the club. Rothen's verdict: the team's foundation is too fragile to build serious continental ambitions on wins against struggling sides.
