    It's probably been said already, but I had no idea Yann had been diagnosed with Leukemia when he was younger, now that his is inspiring, being told he'd probably never play again and then playing how he has done... and he seems really humble and acknowledges he was naive in worrying about his career more then his life, real inspiring story and as it has been said in so many places

    Good luck Stan, get well soon and stay strong

    I did know about Yann's leukaemia, but had no idea that he was in a wheelchair for so long...God he's a fighter.

    All the best Stan.

    He did an interview with a local rag that I put up after he signed. Well worth finding it and reading it as it was a real insight as to how far he has come. A true fighter.

    "I think you can see on the pitch that I'm not a guy who gives up"

    Understatement of the year IMO...
