Confirmed Signing Merlin Rohl

[Blue Willy]

Anyone wondering who he plays like, he's been consistently likened in style to a young Leon Goretzka...a dynamic, all pressing, versatile number 8, who can carry the ball, with a knack for the odd goal. Like Goretzka, he can play anywhere in the middle - dm, cm, or am, but seems best suited at the 8.

So please don't compare him to Doucouré again. It's lazy.

This. The only similarity with Doucs is his energy, because unlike Doucs this lad has a good touch, is very pacey with the ball, and has TWO excellent feet.

You will probably be pleasantly surprised then.

 

[Eggs]

….what an impressive, humble and level-headed young man. I guarantee his parents will be prouder of who he is than what he is.

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

Excited to finally have a German. But can we please change the thread title guys - it's Röhl! Or Roehl.

Hellooo lad, oooh ye'air is gooooorgeous isn't it.
What produkkkt d'ye use?

This is the one giving handjobs for a tenner by the Halfords that @Bungle was referring to.

 

[brooklyn blue]

Has a wand of a right foot..

 

[ManxBlue]

I honestly can't remember.

Is he our first German player?

I'm mentally prepared to look stupid.
I've got a lifetime of training in that respect.

Thomas Hitzlsperger was German (I think).

Looks like he’s joined straight from the latest boy band.

Up the floppy haired, rolled down socks FC Sexy!

Thomas Hitzlsperger was German (I think).

And Stefan Wessells.

 

[yozzer]

And Stephen Schumacher's Ma definitely had a bit of Bratwurst in her.

Main disappointment with signing this fella is that it's after we have all chosen our Fantasy Footy team names.
