Binnion praised Rowe for his work with Kone, saying that he has been excellent and that they have a great relationship. He also mentioned that Rowe has been helping Kone with his French language skills, which has been impressive given that Rowe has been learning French himself.

Binnion explained that Rowe has been working closely with Kone to help him understand the team's tactics and strategies, and that they have been using a language tutor to help Kone learn English. The team has also been doing language lessons together, with Rowe, Binnion, and another coach, Dave Hughes, all participating.

The focus of the language lessons has shifted from basic English to more specific football-related terminology, so that Kone can communicate effectively with his teammates. Binnion acknowledged that it's not easy for Kone, who is away from his family and adjusting to a new country, but he's been doing well despite a slow start due to injury.

Binnion also talked about the high expectations for Kone, saying that the team has high hopes for him and that any player they sign should be able to meet those expectations. He noted that the team's first-team players also have high expectations, but that the reward is worth it and that the academy players have to be ready to step up sooner rather than later.
