Metz is twentieth in the Championnat but you know they managed to take Bordeaux out of the competition in the previous round. Even if they’re dead last in the Ligue, they could surprise us like they surprised the Girondins.
A big shakedown was supposed to happen and Cissé was not even supposed to be included [...]

It’s a secret for nobody that Djibril Cissé is not having the best time of his life right now. The best paid player in the Ligue1 has only scored twice and given three assists in ten games as a starter. When you compare those with his french National Team colleague Karim Benzema, those numbers seem [...]

Sorry for the very -VERY- bad pun but I just couldn’t resist the temptation. Marseille will be opposed in the round of 16 of the Coupe de la Ligue to one of the only two teams that are having a worst time than us in the Ligue 1 right now, Metz [...]

Mamadou Niang scores at the 9th minute his second goal this week, Ronald Zubar at the 31st and Laurent Bonnard finishes at the 51st. Normally that would mean a great night for us and a 3-0 victory. But nothing went our way last night at the Bonnal Stadium in Sochaux. And I mean NOTHING. Marseille [...]

A few hours before Marseille had to confront Porto in the UEFA Champions League, Mathieu Valbuena signed a new contract with us and is now tied for three more seasons. This new deal will end the relationship between Marseille and the pocket-sized midfielder in June of 2012. The staff is obviously rewarding one of the [...]
So close….

Marseille and Porto gave us one of the more pleasant games of this matchday (not as pleasant as Arsenal’s display but hey! those games happen once a year). The game was not an offensive festival but how great both teams played is a testament of the quality in this group. Marseille relied as expected on [...]

I know all eyes will be on us after the game we offered football fans everywhere a few weeks ago at Anfield. Everybody will be looking for us to confrim that result and some people may even put us as favorites against Porto tomorrow night in Marseille. Granted the game we played against the last [...]

After a game that I didn’t watch entirely (hey! I have school and studied all weekend), Bolo Zenden scored a goal that I did not see live. Thank god Youtube is here. I would review the game but by the time I rewatch this, we’ll be more focused on Porto than anything else. It is [...]

Jean-Pierre Papin is to marseille what Tom Cruise is to the Chuch of scientology….
O.K bad example but you get my drift. Jean-Pierre Papin is Marseille’s player of the century. He was a major builder of the Tapie dinasty. He’s been there for our most glorious moments (even if in the defining moment of that era, [...]
