The 2010-11 campaign delivered a respectable 8th-place finish for Toulouse as Les Pitchouns stabilized their position in Ligue 1 under manager Alain Casanova. Leading the attack were the joint top scorers, Daniel Braaten and the young Paraguayan loanee Federico Santander, who each netted 5 crucial goals. It was a vital year of transition, which saw the continued development of future stars like Moussa Sissoko and Étienne Capoue, and remains a defining chapter in the club's effort to consolidate its top-flight status as Les Violets looked to put a difficult prior season behind them.
