Toulouse's goals: Casper Tengstedt leads the line
Where Toulouse's goals come from in the Ligue 1, led by their top scorer.
TL;DR: I've been keeping an eye on Toulouse's Ligue 1 campaign, and their 0-2 loss to Marseille on November 1 really caught my attention - it's clear they've got some work to do. Their current position of 12th doesn't tell the whole story, and I think they're capable of more than their 10 points from 9 games suggests.
