Intro:

After their slip-up at Monaco last weekend, Ligue 1 leaders Olympique Marseille will be looking to return to winning ways when they face Lille on Sunday.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (French): Andre Ayew, Marseille midfielder

"I want to finish the season with Olympique Marseille. It's my ambition when I see what we are living and what's happening. But you never know. I feel good and my aim is that of completing the season here."

SOUNDBITE (French): Andre Ayew, Marseille midfielder

"I did not wIn the title (champion of France) in that year (2010). That is sure. Jordan (Andre's brother) won it. But I participated in the promotion of Arles (from Ligue 2 to Ligue 1 in 2010). For me, it was a beautiful year that I will never forget. If we can be the champions of France this year, that would be great for me because that has been my dream for a long time."

"In my opinion, (Vincent) Enyeama (goalkeeper for Lille and Nigeria national team) is the second best goalkeeper of the championship (Steve Mandanda being as the first). He is like a big brother for me. He is somebody who I know well. He is the best African goalkeeper. He is on the list for the African Golden Ball (African player of the year). He shows us many good things with his national team or his club. So, do we feel the pressure ? No, we don't. But we should mention that we have an African goalkeeper of this quality. I am proud."

SOUNDBITE (Spanish): Marcelo Bielsa, Marseille coach

"I think the best young players in the world are in French Soccer. This is what attracts my attention the most in this league. The greatest, the best teams in the world are going to buy 15 players under the age of 25 in this league."

"(The young coaches Zinedine Zidane, Bernard Diomede, Claude Makelele and Eric Roy were in training at the Center Robert Louis-Dreyfus in Marseille at the beginning of this week in order to observe Bielsa's working methods. They met and spoke with Bielsa. What does Bielsa think about Zidane?) "Zinedine Zidane is a living monument of soccer. I see him more as a statue than as a living being."

"To be with Zidane - and what is more, he was here to listen to me - it was an unforgettable moment."
