What can the FM players tell me about Bakari Sagna then?

 

 

Bakari Sagna (born February 14, 1983 Sens, Bourgogne) is a French soccer right-sided defender who has been playing for AJ Auxerre in the top division of French soccer since the 2004-5 season. Sagna has played for the French under-21 team during the 2006 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship. He has been linked with English giants Arsenal and Newcastle United.

 

He received his first call-up for the senior France National Team on May 24, 2007 for the Euro 2008 Qualifiers against Ukraine and Georgia.

At this time I would rather have Bellamy playing for us and wanting to play for us than that little mercenary scouse scumbag Owen tbh, they're both arseholes in their own way but if we have to have one I'd rather it be the one that actually wants to play for us... as amazing as that sounds.

Christ if Owen does go and we endup with Bellamy and Martins as the strikeforce i hope anyone sitting behind the goal, especially the corner flag area, has some sort of ball to head injury insurance or a crash helmet

lol ;)
