….i played at Cologne about 1973 or ‘74. Have a feeling it was new stadium but might have that wrong and maybe ahead of a European game against Hertha Berlin. Remember sitting on wooden bench at the side of the pitch watching the main match...

As a German blue I'm obviously very excited about this. As mentionef before, saw him in Cologne on Sunday. Was in the first row so didn't have a good 'tactical view' but close up he just seems to be very athletic, superb on the ball and with a...

Now the dust has settled I’m personally quite pleased with how this window ended. We have signed quality players who are good with the football. We have avoided low quality workhorses with negligible technical skills. We have strengthened our...

Like a box of snapped Subbeuteo players waiting for their araldite fix.

@ashwuk76 stop being silly and come share marshmallow with me over the dying embers of this thread, I’ll even dismount your head from me wall and let you have it back man.

There was about 10-15 minutes when we were two up where he was just taking the p!ss every time he got the ball. As you've said showboating is a bit of a lost art in the modern game, rare to see a player have the ability and mentality to beat...

Id rather we took the time to find the right player tbh, I'm not sure Tete was ever that.

Bundesliga is a very high standard league . As I’m sure you are aware.
