Jean II was not in any of the pictures from training. I thought he was back with the club now and was being a fresh crack at things. It seems weird that nobody has heard from him or seen him. So where is our famous jumper wearer? I hope his apparent absence is nothing at all and he will resume his career with us. I think he has a lot to prove and a potentially a lot to offer.
Although the 'Squad' page on the Official Site does not include the two newest signings, there is no mention of him at all.
Strange!
Maybe he's in negotiations?
Maybe he was just a figment of our imagination, like Mathieu Berson
or even like Václav Drobný.
He is next to Wally if you look carefully!
Hopefully J2M is the makeweight in a deal for another player from France. Given we've been linked with two players in the last few days?
Il est dans le ciel, avec les Holtenders.
Due back in training on Thursday apparently having had extended leave for personal reasons.
Hope he does impress Lambert when he returns, he's got a lot of experience and we paid good money for him.
Fook knows why TSM sent him out on loan last season when our midfield was short on experience, especially once Stan took ill, not like the Greek league would of improved his knowledge of English football - nearly a year down the drain really as far as experience of the Prem goes.
Good news for JDII fans
I'm one of them! I don't think he's a tackler by any stretch of the imagination, but he certainly looked to me a player who's capable of playing possession football. Alongside an all-action, tough-tackling type (which I hope/think El Ahmadi is) he could be a real asset. At least worth another try anyway, I'd say.
