A change of manager didn't help Makoun really but yes, some player's need time to settle. Who know's how Sanchez might turn out now he's got a season under his belt?

I fear another restless summer of underwhelment.
Makoun was a tidy player, but it was clear he looked like little boy lost in the premier league. He may have faired better by having a box to box dominant midfielder next to him, a Viera or even an Ian Taylor in his pomp. Berson similar although to a lesser extent.

Right, let's get it on.
