SAINT AND SINNER IN PARIS MATCH

France Football is billing this weekend’s clash between PSG and Marseille as a match of biblical proportions. David Beckham could make his debut for the French Ligue 1 leader, but the media is more interested in a potential personal battle between the former England captain and Joey Barton. Beckham has been cast in the role of an angel while predictably Barton is playing a demon. Barton is already ramping up interest in the game by saying, in a cod French accent presumably, that his adversary is not the athlete of five years ago. Sacre bleu!

Looks like Joey Barton has learned quite a bit of French while waiting out his 12-game suspension for Marseille. The QPR loanee showed he has the accent down pat already while speaking with reporters after his first OM game!

Soccer bad boy Joey Barton scores this incredible “Olympic Goal” for Olympique Marseille against Borussia Mochengladbach.

A definite goal of the day candidate!
