The Return Of the King

[A Humble Man]

I hope Diarra returns on Saturday

[The King]

I don't see Litmanen anywhere.

If Diarra is available then we have a surplus of players for the two critical centre mid positions, Diarra, Sidwell, Frimpong and Karagounis. What a nice problem for Jol.

You forget the guy we have signed from Ajax ... Enoh? I believe he is also a CM?

Volzy is returning?  :wine:

Hopefully Diarra is returning this week or next.

It certainly would not surprise me to hear Jol tell us he's another 3 to 4 weeks away when this latest "deadline" arrives. I'm not very optimistic that he's going to return this season or play for us again.

I'd love to be wrong though.

With the CM options we have now could actually go for the 3 man midfield that Jol tried and failed to implement back in September. Could be a useful option away from home.

yeah, too bad he has dodgy knees.  he needs a run of games and if he was healthy i think our year would have looked very different.

Would love to see him back in the side, I hope we keep him next season, yes he has had his injuries but he is a class player when fit
