FABIEN IN TROUBLE IN MARSEILLE

Last updated : 18 February 2004 By Editor
Barthez is disliked by the fans at Marseille for replacing
the popular keeper Vedran Runje. His demotion split the
squad and is thought to have contributed to the manager
being sacked.

Barthez said last night: "I will not leave. Why should I? I
will work hard as I have always done to keep my place on
merit."
