Yoaan Gourcuff Related Content
After being subjected to some heavy criticism by the press earlier this week, former teammate Wendel has come to the rescue of Yoann Gourcuff.

Yoaan Gourcuff has been the target of the French press on numerous occasions this season but former teammate and Bordeaux believes that writing off Gourcuff is a mistake.
“Gourcuff is Gourcuff,” Wendel explained to RMC. “He was especially confident at that time; everything went well. He was comfortable on the field; he had a lot of confidence. The coach and the players were behind him.
“Everyone goes through difficult times. He'll become the player who finished the best Ligue 1 player in 2009. He has not lost his technique, finesse and vision. He must continue to work.”
