After eight seasons at Bayern, Willy Sagnol has achieved cult status. A full-blooded cry of “Willyyyyy“ rings round the Allianz Arena whenever the France international is on the ball. Rated one of the best right-backs in the world, 2007-8 was a season to forget for Sagnol as he struggled for form following an eight-month injury lay-off, although the 2006 World Cup runner-up was a valuable and authoritative member of the France squad at the 2008 European championships, promising good things ahead in the new season.
