Re: Louis Appéré gone

He caused us no end of issues whenever we played against him prior to signing him. I was really pleased with the signing.
But through a collection of injuries, lack of a run of games (related to the injuries), and him looking low in form and confidence (again, probably related to the injuries and lack of games), he wasn't the player we saw previously and we hoped to sign.
This pre-season he has again looked low in sharpness and confidence. Two or three times against both Stortford and Swansea I can immediately think of where he would have been clean through on goal with a remotely decent first touch, but miscontrolled it, which allowed the defenders to get back, and with his lack of pace he then had to lay the ball off, by which time their whole defensive unit was back in position and the threat gone. And you could see the immediate frustration/disappointment in him.
Think this is one of those signings that made absolute sense for us, but just didn't work out, and with us now having better options it is best for all three parties that he goes there, where he can get a run of games and get his sharpness and confidence back. Am sure in L2 after some games he will look more like the player I have seen before. And he never looked like he was being lazy or shirking responsibility, it just wasn't coming off for him, so I wish him well.
