Chaouki Ben Saada

Nice coach Didier Olle-Nicolle recently told Actufoot06.com that he is finally seeing the necessary physical improvements from Chaouki Ben Saada that will possibly make him figure more prominent in the line-up.

“Ben Saada had a really great start to the season if you compare it to the level he was at before and also the playing time he used to get," the coach indicated. "He then started to tire a bit. However, in the last eight days I feel that he’s been much better, more active, and more available.”

The Tunisia playmaker has only played for a half hour since his team’s 4-1 loss to Lorient on October 17, but the words of his coach appear to indicate that his fortunes could soon change.

Olle-Nicolle’s revelation will not come as a surprise to Tunisian fans who noticed that the diminutive midfielder was visibly short on fitness during his country's 1-0 loss to Mozambique, which put them out of World Cup contention on the final day of qualifying.
