Lamine Kone has not suddenly turned into a shite defender
overnight, scientists have said today. He is in fact suffering from a
neurological disorder known as 'lost puppy syndrome', having lost his life
partner Younes Kaboul earlier this season.
"The medical boys have said it's an emotional time for
Lamine, akin to grieving after the death of someone close" said manager
David Moyes. "We did try to cheer him up. We threw a ball and a nice juicy
bone at him during training, but the bone intercepted, took a great first
touch, dribbled past Lamine and stuck one in the top corner. So the bone is starting
instead of Jermain on Saturday. Tough for Lamine and Jermain but you know,
every cloud and all that".
Sunderland remain bottom of the Premier League, becoming the
first side in British football history requiring snookers to avoid relegation.
