The Lille man is glad to know that he has returned to full form for his club and is also hopeful of playing for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 at the Euros
After Gervinho left for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gervinho-c14755’s boots after a great 2010/2011 campaign.
However, the winger’s luck was not on his side as niggling injuries hindered his development at the start of the campaign.
After a hesitant start, Payet has returned in style and is finally starting to give full measure of his talent alongside Belgian international http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Eden-Hazard-c11863, Tulio De Melo and Nolan Roux who signed for the club this January from Stade Brestois.
The former Saint-Etienne man has now become an integral part of Rudi Garcia’s side that is going to play in the UEFA Champions League next season.
While talking to media, Payet said that it is never easy to integrate into a team like Lille that plays at such a high tempo.
Today, with six goals and four assists, Payet has proven that he will be a valuable asset to the club’s cause for the coming season. A strong finish to the campaign has given back some lost confidence and Payet is keen on meeting expectations.
“The club will recruit. But I know that I met expectations. I hope to have a good preseason in order to meet these expectations.”
Payet is convinced that he made the right choice by choosing to sign for Les Dogues. The France international hasn’t heard from the national team manager Laurent Blanc for a long time but is hopeful that he might be able to make it into the 23-man squad
that will play at the Euros this summer in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032.
“Until the list is not out, I think (that I can hope). I feel very fit but it’s true that it is perhaps a little late. Afterwards, if it’s not this time, it’s part of the motivation for rest.”
Certainly, the young midfielder won’t be gutted if Blanc does not name him in the squad.
