Yoan Gouffran

You could be forgiven for wondering just what the function of Gouffran actually is.

His position in the side has always been shrouded in grey and it seems that his time is now up.

A new manager is a new start and the deadwood at the club tends to be axed.

No matter where he plays, the impact is minimal from the Frenchman and when there are young players who work their socks off week in week out, it becomes impossible to justify his place in the side – or his wage packet.
