Little by little, the crisis in defence is easing up. The injuries worries which blighted the plans of Didier Deschamps over the first half of the season are luckily becoming a thing of the past. Kovac aside – who recently underwent surgery on his ankle – the treatment table is now a distant memory for the other sidelined players.
Giorgio Chiellini and Nicola Legrottaglie made their come backs against Vicenza and now it’s Jean Alain Boumsong who’s preparing himself for a return to action. As announced by Dr Agricola at the beginning of the week, the Frenchman is back training with the rest of the squad: “That’s right, I feel fine again now. The injury I picked up in Milan is behind me and this week I’ve been able to do everything my team mates have done in training – I hope to return to action soon. Injuries aside, I’m settling in more and more, I like Turin and I hope to be here for a long time”.
Boum Boum 
has good memories of Crotone, having scored an important goal there earlier this season: “I remember it well, but winning the game was most satisfying. It was a tough game, just as they all are. This is a good championship, but we want to do all we can to win and to get back into Serie A as soon as possible”.
In the forty days he’s been sidelined, a lot has happened and a lot has been said, in particular the criticisms levelled at the defence. Boumsong is with his team mates: “When things aren’t going well, it’s easy to point the finger at the defence. That’s football, but we all know it’s eleven players who win or lose out there”.

...its a damn shame that we have to see him running around in our beloved black and white everyday. You know if we give him to ManU for free they may actually agree to have a serious discussion with us about a possible C. Ronaldo swoop :thumbs:
