Michel Baston (Brazilian LB, was at Lille, Lyon and Schalke, now at Al Ain) was expected to go to Napoli for a medical, and he decided he wants to join Roma instead. This change of heart ,ight be because he already worked with Gracia at Lille, so he knows the coach has faith in him.
Not overly excited at his arrival. Whist he does give us a decent cover at LB (Dodo isn't up to scratch yet, and Balzaretti is always injured and when he played, he didn't play well), I feel he is only a shadow of his former self because he stopped playing 'top quality' football for some time. Also, he is more a left midfielder/winger rather than a left back. All good if he comes on loan though.
I was thinking who the hell is Baston, I know Bastos though

He was great a few years ago when Lyon competed in the CL.
