Bernard has publically criticised Pelissier on the French site.Some of the fans agree .Others prefer a man who plays with his heart rather than ,I presume ,with his brain.By chance I am currently reading"Crimea" by Orlando Figes ,who describes the French commader in chief General Pelissier as "a short stocky man wth a rough and ready manner" Colonel Rose,theBritish commissioner at French H.Q. says of Pelissier"he is a man of violent temper and rough manner,but I believe him to be just and sincere;and I think that in all important matters these 2 qualities will triump over his ebulliations of temper" Eloi was 25 yesterday .Will he ever learn self control? Will he ever pass a ball after he has made a break?How is it that Bosc after only a few games is already a far better number 9.?
Poor old Bernard had a sleepless night.He's not theonly one.
