Hmmmmm, i'm not sure about this one really, I think he looked very tough and a good player when we signed him.
Useful squad player who could come off the bench if need be.
But now the dust is starting to clear and my assessment is that a lot of players were under-performing over the last couple of years because of Houllier. I don't think he was good for the players in the end, he wasn't the best man-morivator was he?
I always liked Houllier and was prepared to give him another season, but now we have the the new gaffer Rafa on board though, I can only see the future of the club becoming brighter, which in turn favours the players.
Another way of looking at it is that Biscan's confidence is so much shot to pieces from the Houllier regime, the public 'arm around the shoulder' tactic of Benitez saying he's willing to let him have a future at the club could do old Igor the world of good.
I'm giving Igor a chance.
