Typically a player is loaned out to get him playing time. I expect this will happen with Freddy. Hopefully the team plays a formation that suits his style.
I haven't read the whole thread, but Freddy just returned from the Olympics and hasn't had much time at all to train with Monaco. I'd give him more than a couple of games before I started worrying about his playing time and his relationship with his new coach.
if you want you can use that francophobia. Say you're supporting the small Monogasque in there struggle against the larger French clubs.
