The Indomitable Lionssaw their African Nations Cup hopes ended by the Ivory Coast on Saturday and although Geremi has since returned to Chelsea, David O'Leary is unaware of the whereabouts of Djemba-Djemba. "Eric has not been back," the Irishman said, displaying as much concern as a dog that had forgotten where he buried his bone. "We've been trying to get touch with his agent. They all went back to Cameroon and everybody's looking for their players. It’s been five days now.
"I might see him today, but as of yesterday he wasn't back," Tubbs concluded shrugging before strolling off to training. Djemba-Djemba could have been in line for a rare start on Saturday as both Gavin McCann and James Milner are ruled out.
