Weren't there comments that came out which suggested Makoun didn't like living in this country and had no intention of coming back? I think there's a decent player in there but it sounds like his attitude was all wrong.

I think had Houllier stayed he'd have found a playing partner for Makoun. As it is we'll just never know whether he could have been a good PL player. The news is really met with a shrug of the shoulders and on to other news.
It's a real shame it didn't work out here. He looked a good player to me, but he was hardly likely to play for us again.Best of luck with his next club and all that,.

That is the first I've heard of that.I think OCD's confusing Makoun with me. Good luck to the fella.
Also worth remembering at the time we signed Michael Bradley who really did look toss in a few of his cameos and since then he's gone on to do very well in Italy.I think it just shows our decisions in central midfield since Milner left have been awful bar Westwood who will be a good player for us. That's one of the reasons we've plummeted from top 6 so quickly.Loads of teams get away with dodgy defences if their midfield and attack are good, Norwich for one did last season. Ours isn't.
