I hope not the guy is too slow. Since he has been injured we have returned to playing just as good as we did before he arrived. He would be useful in coaching(which i think he is doing now) our young defensive players. But if he comes back we will start to have defensive problems again. No one in their right mind can tell me that Blanc as he is now is better than O'Shea or Brown. And do not forget that it has already been spelled out for us last season when we lost at home to "B"olton, "L"iverpool, "A"rsenal, "N"ewcastle, and "C"helsea, If someone adds WHU or west ham to that then I can only say "change the U in west ham to a "Y" and you got BLANC WHY????
