His famous namesake was the "King of Football", but Marseille backup goalkeeper Yohann Pele will take a reputation as the "Prince of the clean sheet" into his encounter with the potent Paris Saint-Germain attack. Steve Mandanda has not recovered from his thigh injury so the "Albatross," as Pele is known, will start at Parc des Princes on Sunday. He has made several blunders lately but Stephane Cassard, Marseille's goalie coach, insists he has full confidence in Pele. "He does not even have to prove his mental qualities anymore," Cassard told AFP. "Just look at the number of clean sheets Yohann has in his career."
