Interesting signing. He came on as another midfield/striker at Wembley. Now he's a centreback? One of those wait and see players as far I am concerned. I hope he turns out well as we are definitely light in the centreback department.

I certainly think he's been brought in as cover. I think as long as they stay fit, CW will want to try and keep Worley and Wright together at the back to build a solid partnership. Sangare may be a cheaper option than Creighton to provide competition and cover. We also have Gaughan although he is very inexperienced at the moment.

He seems to have had a lot of clubs in a short time, hope he's not bad news.

Looks like he can score from corners too. Useful signing by CW.

he can't be worse than futcher. And he did play at Wembley...if you watch the sky coverage im sure Rhys Day beat him in the air from the corner which led to Alfie's clincher!

Saw him a fair bit at York so feel able to comment. Achieved cult hero status at York. Well liked by the fans and Gary Mills wanted to keep but Martin Foyle had only give him a contract unitl january and he sorted the move to Morocco. A good player, very strong in the air, scored from a few set pieces including this one v Stevenage www.youtube.com/watch?v=32y13RxqhBMgo to 7:20 Strong in the tackle, always fights for the cause. Not the most skillful of players but does want a centreback needs to do and does it well Played just in front of the back four towards the end at York.

Thats what we miss.

We've had a few Frenchies over the years:
Jeannin, Gnohere, Remy, Eric Sabin, Norman Sylla - any more??

He is a good player and an absolutely superb bloke by all accounts. Just asked a few York friends.
