Lyon is coming back at the top, they are incredible with mitfelders of quality (Gonalons, Malbranque, Grenier/Gourcuff). I think they can become champions, they are clearly better than PSG.

Lyon stay top after their 1-0 victory.
Joey Barton set up both goals for Marseille during their 2-1 win at Brest.
PSG lost again 2-1 at Nice and drop down to 4th place and 5 points behind the leaders.

I remember Malbranque when he played in England!
I can't believe how bad PSG are at the moment and maybe Carlo Ancelotti will soon be looking for another job!
