Alou Diarra - L'equipe (ed. Feb 18 - back training with Charlton)

Would have both of them back in a heartbeat.

Was really hoping we'd sign Diarra this season. Hope he gets invited to pre-season. Think he could do a job at this level. Maybe not every week, but would provide steel, class, and experience in midfield.

Potential 1st coach? Although that mean three inexperienced coaches with LB and JJ.

Was a major influence in the dressing room and involved behind the scenes at Charlton.
Jacko would speak very highly of him at the time.

Must have an eye on a coaching role now.

Yeah I was really hoping we'd sign him for the run in. He's a player of true class and by all accounts a model pro. As Henry says a good candidate for a 1st team coach, maybe a player-coach role (though we definitely need experience alongside what would then be three inexperienced coaches).

Buy 3 with a vast amount of differing experience

But not as coaches.
