Been reading a bit around French forums from last season. What I can glean is that over several years, he was perceived as having a lot of unfulfilled potential and needed to work on his touch, finishing and chance-creating. This time last year, he went on a bit of a run, starting with en eyecatching performance against PSG. Found a
funny quote from a French pundit: "Have you ever heard anyone talk about Guessand and instinctively say, ‘I think this bloke's good, I really believe he's on the verge of something’? But since last year, last winter, he's gone up a level."
We can only hope...
Somebody mentioned Palace wanting him earlier in the thread. Canvot (who we were trying to sign at CB) started for them, and gifted the winner to Larnaca.
