    He don't take any prisoners that's for sure! He reminds me of Manu Thetis the way he lunges in for tackles!

    While it is not the most exciting signing, I think this makes sense. MM was obviously impressed with Youga during the trial so offered him a short contract. I would imagine he is on low wages so if he doesn't make any appearances no-one loses anything. At 27 he still has some years left so if he can find some form who knows.

    He was probably just signed as a back up for Cressy as I believe the only other person we have who can play LB is Joe Whight, who I'm not sure has even made a first team appearance yet.

    As he is on a short contract we should see this more as an extended trial period rather than a permanent signing.

    He says he knows some of the french players already so they might have recommended MM give him a shot.

    He takes no prisoners, I can see that!

    Not going to judge him until I see him play in a town shirt, but having him in any defence from the highlights of that video, this could be suicide with the amount of diving that goes on now.

    Looks decent enough from the clips although some of those tackles in the first few minutes were mental, tackle like that today and he'll get sent off every match.

    Was watching it and thought who's that player looks decent in the yellow, realised it was Gavin Williams!! Also he played with Matt Holland1!

    Too true.

    Now then, McCarthy has talked about 'kids' and that he needs good solid championship players to get us out of this mess.... that's why I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Cresswell dropped.

    Alex Bruce mark 2.
    Looks like he'll spend most of his time suspended 'cos I can see him picking up at least a yellow every game if he still plays like that.

    Maybe some of us are annoyed by the attitude shown as it appears that its not WHAT decision is made thats important but WHO makes it.

    Maybe some just can't wait to put the boot in on fellow posters.
    Maybe some are too interested in scoring points.
    Maybe some are sticking up for what they believe in.
    Maybe some of us are annoyed at reading it all.











    And maybe it's all a bit infantile which ever way you look at it <ok>
