Gourcuff pt 2

I've mentioned him before, but having just seen his goal against PSG I can't help but mention him again. New Zidane or not, this is a goal of sublime technique which the great Zizou would have been proud of. If Gourcuff stays at Bordeaux next season I'll be very surprised/disappointed.

Watch the goal here and be impressed.

Gourcuff

If you haven't heard of Yoann Gourcuff, or if you've only heard the name but never seen him in action, then check out these two clips from last night's game against Chelsea:

Making a fool out of JT (the replay at the end shows it beautifully)

The New New Zidane?

I only saw the highlights, but he looked very, very impressive. I'll be damned if Milan don't take him back, or if he doesn't find himself in the Premier League having secured a £120m transfer to Man City. The boy has talent, no question. Whether he has what it takes to be up there with the best remains to be seen, but lets hope so.
