Olympique de Marseille is set to face Toulouse in the 36th day of Ligue 1, and while they are not aiming for the top spot in the rankings, a victory against Toulouse would bring them closer to PSG. After recent successful performances, the Marseille team is in a confident position, marking a significant improvement from earlier challenging times.
Nicolas Nkoulou, the Indomitable Lion and leader of the Marseille defense, expressed his satisfaction with the team’s progress. Nkoulou acknowledged the fluctuations in his own form throughout the season but remained confident in his abilities and the team’s overall improvement.
Reflecting on his performance, Nkoulou stated, “If you followed my start to the season, it was like the end of last year. Then I experienced this period of less well. I went back up the slope. Afterwards, I will become the player you imagine again. No way. Otherwise, I would never have returned to my current level.” He remained unfazed by critics, emphasizing that their opinions did not affect him. Nkoulou acknowledged the nature of the job, where criticism is part of the territory, and considered it a source of motivation to come back stronger.
With a positive mindset and determination, Nkoulou and Marseille look to continue their good form and secure a favorable result against Toulouse in the upcoming match
