A loan. Not a steal.

Thimothee Kolodziecjzak is a steal for Lyon. Unfortunately the pathetic managment we have over at Lens has a noted penchant for developing the best young talent in France and Africa for the nourishment of satiated clubs like Lyon. You will love to see him attack and defend. Cheers!

Inara, it looks like Pjanić had a pretty good debut for Bosnia. I couldn’t find any extended match reports, but judging by the short ones and numerous comments of Bosnian supporters, Pjanić was ‘excellent’, ‘technically terrific’, ‘fought like a lion’, and gave all the other teammates an example to follow. In a game that Bosnia (undeservedly?) lost, Pjanić was apparently the brightest spot in their team. Way to go, Miralem! That’s our boy!

A loan deal? It’s for the entire year, right? At least it has an option to buy. I guess we can send back TK if he doesn’t make the grade, though I doubt that will happen because he’s supposed to be talented.

Revision: Beynie has been loaned to AFC Tibize, and Kolo’s deal is also a loan with an option to buy.

its great to have players who play with so much “commitment” and “passion” for the club, but sadly its not enough sometimes.
I took the liberty to correct your post, you are welcome.

Govou is pretty useful in the tough, physical champions league games: I’m not a fan of the guy but he does get the job done. Obviously we can’t afford to have two wingers like him on the pitch without sucking the life out of our team which is why i liked the ben arfa-govou ticket (and I’m looking forward Keitou)
Inara: what the hell is wrong with becoming a “French” Arsenal? I like the part of their strategy about having an exciting team it’s just the selling aspect I don’t understand

Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian – it’s all the very same language. I’ll see what I can find about Pjanić…

Govou obviously works very hard during matches, he runs a lot, try’s to win the ball, and like someone above me mentioned, he does a great defensive work.
but for a team that plays with 2 DM, you really need a winger who’s got good attacking skills, and this is where Govou fails to impress me at least.
