Not sure Spors has earned our trust. His fishing pond seems to be mainly limited to Germany. And after Sekou Mara, he then picks Downs, who is truly useless, and I'm not yet convinced Dobbin is much better than Archer. And even Jander might be less than a one season wonder. 9

Why does it matter if most of his shopping is done in Germany. If it unearths people like Scienza, Jander and Peretz then brilliant. That also ignores people like Larin and Azaz who weren't from there. 7

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Dear Tonda, just to be clear, signing a left footed CB and getting rid of our 2 back up right backs is not an excuse to go 3 at the back with Capt Jack as a sweeper and Fellows as a wing back. We’ve seen it before and it sucks. Massively. Is this clear?? 10
SNSUN Posted August 27 Posted August 27 (edited) Welcome Kevan. We can hope you're as good as Fonte, Van Dijk or Alderwereld, or your brother, but as long as you're as good as Jos Hooiveld we'll be ok. Edited August 27 by SNSUN 5

If anything it’s a massive advantage to have knowledge of a resource that is a high footballing level but significantly lower in price than paying English tax. A strange criticism. 5
BS8Saint Posted August 27 Posted August 27 A friend of mine is a season-ticket holder at Augsburg and said their fans are not happy he’s going. Called him a ‘mentality monster, who scores frequently but can sometimes switch off’ reckons he’d be a good fit for us. 13

CSA96 Posted August 27 Author Posted August 27 Some comments from Augsburg fans (and one Werder Bremen fan) on the Bundesliga Reddit post of this transfer - Goodbye, dear Schlotti, and thanks for everything!!! - The transfer fee is a bit low for a vice-captain so late in the window—especially since we’ll definitely need to find a replacement. Jeff won’t play 34 matches, and it’s uncertain whether Brackelmann will make an immediate impact. You have to squeeze English clubs for every penny. Still, all the best to him personally. - Bremen fan: That really is very little. I actually thought he was worth more than €4.5 million in sporting terms. What is the club's financial situation like? - I honestly don't understand our transfer policy at times. It has happened repeatedly now that key players go through the entire pre-season, only to be sold right before the season starts. Do we really have to overhaul nearly half the squad every season? It would be great to have a stable, well-gelled core for two or three years. If the guys have to find their rhythm and chemistry from scratch every single year, it becomes difficult to finish in the top third of the table or qualify for Europe. I wish Schlotterbeck all the best. He always gave his all; replacing the vice-captain on such short notice won't be easy. 5

Always a good sign when fans of the selling clubs or other teams in the league don’t have a bad word to say. I like this signing and his interview was very confident and supports the mentality monster comment. His heart is bigger than anyone else’s and wants to win 100% of his duels, great mindset.

Lighthouse Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Can't see any reason not to be happy with this, I doubt most Championship clubs would be able to pull off a signing of his pedigree, so fair play to Spors for that. Hopefully this means we'll see a bit less of Stephens and a lot less of Wood this season, perhaps starting with our game on Saturday. 12

Seems a really solid signing - experienced, pace, size, goals, a leader - What's not to like. 4
St Chalet Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Really liked his interview. Humble, wants to be here and will learn to hate Pompey. 4 6
saintant Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Happy with this signing and hope to see him starting regularly asap because we need a solid centre back to steady the ship. Hope we sign a second one to help limit Capn Jack's appearances. 1
Saint Marky Posted August 27 Posted August 27 Any thoughts on songs for our new CB? His name sort of fits to the Timberlakes ‘ I’m bringing sexy back’. If Fellows ever scores, how about ‘ for he’s a jolly good Fellows? Asking for a friend. 2
Cabrone Posted August 27 Posted August 27 I'm thinking less Jose Fonte and more Killer Svensson. I really hope so. 1
Saint Fan CaM Posted August 27 Posted August 27 I’m in agreement with the earlier suggestion of ‘The Terminator’. Let’s hope he lives up to the name…I’m feeling hopeful. Welcome Deven. Fingers crossed you’ll be in the team for the Swansea game (I’ve got tickets). 1

Never played in England, and yet his conversational English is better than most uk native speakers. Comes across as an intelligent and well mannered young fellow. Good luck to him. 1
whelk Posted Friday at 14:46 Posted Friday at 14:46 Decent signing it would seem. Although I thought that about Quarshie until his debut

Middlewordie Posted Friday at 18:06 Posted Friday at 18:06 Put him straight in on Saturday. Tell him he needs to put Josh Coburn on his backside at least twice and then sit back and watch the sparks fly.

Saint_clark Posted Saturday at 11:09 Posted Saturday at 11:09 Anyone else see the surname in the headline and shit themselves thinking we'd signed that centre back from Dortmund? I was wondering how the hell we pulled that off 😂 Out of the loop recently, what's the consensus on this guy does he look good from clips, stats etc?
