Jean Makoun SIGNED!

[luke25]

Jean II Makoun (French pronunciation: [ʒɑ̃ dœ̃ mɑkun]

Thats one hek of a pronunciation

[TonyD]

He looks a bit older than 27.

Quite a bit

[PaulWinch again]

Hang on 3 and half year deal, shouldn't we start renegotiating better terms now?

[Marlon's Hairy Wood]

fantastic.

great to make a high calibre signing like this, i'm happy as larry an all of that

[Rip Van We Go Again]

Welcome Jean.

[Rip Van We Go Again]

His musical tastes are a bit naff, apparently a big fan of Cliff Richard who he sees as an inspiriation.
I'd like to ask him
'Why Cliff Jean?'

I must admit, that I quite like Wired for sound. Can't help but tap me toes to that sucker!

Anyway. This is a decent signing. Is it earth shatteringly brilliant? No. Is it better than anything O Neill did? Not really. But certainly, it's a decent player in an area where we've looked decidedly shit this season.

Now we need a left back, another CM, and a striker. Bish, bash, bosh, roberts yer uncle, fanny's your aunt!

[JJ-AV]

If I were one of the players who had reportedly been undermining Ged I'd be very worried if this was the calibre of player the manager was capable of signing when we were in 18th.

Infact it might push me to get my act together.

[PaulWinch again]

I've only ever seen him play in Champions League games and he looked very good. Better than what we have in centre mid definitely.

[maidstonevillain]

I did note GH's earlier comment. Lyon have gone from 18th to 4th since Makoun was back in the team.

Heres hoping.

The initials JM are a good omen as well.

Ah, the voice of reason. Give him a pay rise when he gets his work permit.

[Eigentor]

I'm not sure if this is a good signing. If we had kept our nerve until the 31st, maybe we could have got Jenas for £13m.

[Hopadop]

He has the look, large head and pullover of a lean and hungry Billy Ocean

When the going gets tough...we sign Wigan & Blackpool players.

Watching the interview on AVTV, the interpreter seems to be that Lorna Languages, the foreign players liaison officer.

Must be a shock for her, having something to do. She looks well chuffed.
