Emirs and Princes: the PSG vs Monaco clash of the titans of Ligue 1 Season 2013-14

btw nakh when you posted about bielsa i thought it was a done deal. but it's not confirmed, even though it made front page of l'équipe today so this could still go the way of other classic marseille done deals like jardel coming

Really good win for Lyon. PSG mostly threatened from set pieces - look a shadow of their best when Zlatan's out. Ferri was excellent for Lyon.

coming back to gignac, burger king got in on the fun and is mocking him too. see their twitter account, announcing the opening of a new BK in marseille :

their message says: we've never been good with rhymes, our thing is burgers.

Berbatov just out-Berbatoved himself with the most nonchalant lob I've seen in ages.

It was exceedingly Berbatov

Helene Costa, first female manager to be appointed for a french professional club!

Helene Costa quit on her first day?

yup - Club president commented "oh you know how women are..."

Five red cards in Marseille vs PSG, including Neymar who left the field claiming he’d been racially abused.

Nice vs Marseille has descended into chaos. Fans throw bottles at Payet, Payet throws one back, dozens of Nice supporters pile on to the pitch to chase after him and brawl with Marseille players.

This is the second match in two weeks suspended because home fans couldn’t stop chucking stuff at visiting Marseille players and it’s crazy that the ref didn’t stop this one sooner.

Marseille players didn’t want to resume the game. Nice players were waiting on the pitch with the referees, Marseille never came back out and will lose the game 3-0.

Thats shameful if its carried through tbh

Is this the third or fourth Marseille march this season that has been suspended after their players were assaulted by opposing fans? I’m losing track.

Lyon / Marseille stopped after four minutes when Payet got hit by a bottle (again).
