An ode to Yann

Thought Sadie's ode was excellent and a really good idea. Maybe other Lifers could contribute one about their favourite player?

So if you were stood in a trench
Alongside you who would you want
I'll give you a clue he is French
But not with username le vol au vent

I can offer some more subtle clues
But you know who all this is for
He's the one who shouts sacre bleu's
As again he is chopped to the floor

In 2011 he signed for the addicks
And imagine our collective shock when
The YouTube site showed several mad clips
Of that diabolical play off pen

He's a dud, a fool we all cried
We swore, cursed and cussed
But we knew one certain thing
In sir Chris we surely all trust

So I am sure you all remember the game
Non non non turned to oooh tres bon
27th September, his first Charlton goal
Away at Milton Keynes Dons

His stock continued to rise
In league one we beat one n all
And wow that volley, quelle surprise
In the last game versus Hartlepool

Alas others were sniffing around
But to many cheers and whoops,
He rose and said ' my favourite colour is red
I won't play in green and white hoops.'

He has become a real fans fave
For the effort and endeavour he shows
He's big strong and oh so brave
As our man ( and woman) love grows

Now he's not perfection. Agreed.
I know his bulk concerns quite a few
But I think that's because he regularly feeds
On an opposing defender or two

So berets off to our man from Bretagne
And long shall he stay in our team
For me he is our main main man
The CAFC cream de la cream
