Florian Thauvin is having a sublime term at Marseille, arrowing home from distance after Morgan Sanson's bulldozing run and backheel.
The 24-year-old's strike past Rennes is his seventh league tally of the season, and he's also contributed three assists - a far cry from the indifferent performances he made at Newcastle United.
Saturday's match also featured another ongoing revival of a Premier League flop, with Clinton Njie, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, opening the scoring:
