West Ham’s summer signing Julien Faubert is happy to be back on the pitch after a long absence.
The former Bordeaux right back and right midfielder appeared for the first time ever in the 2-1 win over Fulham in The Premier League, and also replaced Freddy Ljungberg during the FA Cup game with Manchester City.
Even if he reckons that he still has to adapt to a different football and to recover the physical strength that made him famous in France, the versatile player is satisfied with his first footsteps in England.
“I feel good,” the one time France international said. “The five first minutes have been difficult but I got used to it.
“I know that English football is very quick and I haven’t played a single match in six months. But from now on I feel good.
“I didn’t know when I would play when I returned. But right now I am feeling confident. I just have to work my physique.”
