Yes, forgot about him. Actually have forgotten about him full stop since he left Arsenal.
If it’s true about Sanson I hope he keeps up the tradition of French midfielders arriving at the training ground to sign adorned in hideous knitwear a la Berson and Makoun.
France hasn't exactly been a hotbed of Villa legends for us over the years, let's hope this chap puts that right.
Not a great record, but look at how many great French players other teams have found. It's about time we found a Vieira, Pires. Ginola or Cantona!

World class at Newcastle and Spurs, flabby and disinterested for us.Don't think Berson had a fair run at. Veretout sulked and didn't fancy the second division, Gana was OK and went on to be better, amarvi was average, and Ayew did OK.

It would be good to have some of the success that clubs like Newcastle and Leicester have had and pick-up a Sissoko or Kante.
