To be fair to him I watched the checkatrade final back a few ago and his performance was absolutely immense

Yes, I thought he was a nice footballer. Has he not had injuries? I read a quote from one of his Scottish managers that he should never have been signed, as he wasn’t fit when they got him. Motherwell or Hibs.

For me, I have a good memory of him scoring a tremendous equaliser at Deepdale against that horrible Preston team managed by Simon Greyson. It was something like the 96th minute, they’d been time wasting like mad, kicking the ball into the crowd who wouldn’t give it back. Ball boys doing the ‘what’s the hurry’ thing, when Bigi hit a screamer into the top corner from 30 yards. I went mad, it was so much justice, and deserved. So good luck to him.

I’m absolutely sure that was Franck Moussa

Never mind Bigi, we should sign Richard Keough according to someone in Facebook. Never mind that hes out for a year and his career is almost definitely over.

Moussa's post CCFC career is even worse than Bigi's. He's now without a club having played 25 games in 4 years. His spell at Cov was the pinnacle of his career.

Hard to see what has gone so wrong for him, apart from injuries. I know his tracking back wasn’t good but he was a real livewire going forward. He scored some spectacular goals too. The one at Preston mentioned above was great but I think his best was the delicate chip over the keeper at Sixfields (I watched him score this peering between two stands from the hill) against Leyton Orient. A player who possessed the skill to do that shouldn’t hav3 gone down hill so quickly.

I liked Bigi, another one on here where fans seemed to make up their mind about him regardless and was nowhere near as bad as some of the virtiol that went his way. I remember the early parts of that disastrous 16-17 season and him and Sordell seemed to be the only players who weren't complete and utter dirge.

Horrifically misadvised by his shithouse agent though.

Whilst I agree about Sordell, I recall Bigi going missing for large parts if not all of each game of the 16/17 season.

seemed to have gone backwards from his first spell for us.

He expected not likely to play for 15 months - probably in time to pair up with Jamie Allen?

I was a Bigi fan first time round . Nice tidy player with quick feet.
The Newcastle move ruined him as a footballer ... seemed to go backwards.

Bigi was our academy version of Stephen Hughes and Sideways Sammy. Looked tidy because they never took risks. Foot on the ball and then pass sideways or backwards. They all massively stifled the attacking capabilities of the team by giving the opposition the chance to reorganise and get into position.
