[Albion] Mats Wieffer SINGS on 5 year contract

[Southern Scouse]

This is quite exciting! Seems the Reds offered £25m, hoping the Arne factor will swing it but, BUT…. He’s on his way to Lancing!!!!!
Is this a dramatic last call from LFC or a smoke screen for the Italian chappie who may be going to the arse! Ooooo

 

[Napper]

got to be a good sign Athletico + Milan in for him

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

1908.nl dismiss the Liverpool rumours

Tell, you what, my Dutch has been getting a bit of an unexpected workout in the last day or so

 

[Mr Bridger]

oh dear

FFS, they'll turn up with actual guns.

 

[Hugo Rune]

potentially 60 m spent in a week on 2 positions we need.

DM possibly our biggest hole at the moment. Could this be our Caicedo replacement finally?

Know nothing about him but this feels like a major signing and really strengthens us where we were really weak

Not really if Hürzeler is to play his St Pauli system.

This guy looks like a specialist deep lying playmaker in midfield when we have possession.

When the opposition have possession, he’ll drop back between Dunk & JPvH to make a back three. He appears to have a similar physique to our centre backs and has absolutely top level aerial challenges statistics.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Think this will be a very good signing for us.

So Liverpool matched our offer? Based on this it would seem they never actually tabled a bid.

His attributes do on the face of it suggest he might well be *that guy* in Hürzeler’s system. Aerial prowess and physical stature of a CB but well accustomed to playing the DM role in possession.

Did they get as far as bidding for the player ? Not seen reporting that says that.

 

[GT49er]

I'm sure we can make a much better analogy involving shell-suited scouse scallies in this case.

Strewth! - what's it like still living in the 1980s and 90s?

 

[chrisg]

Hopefully not another Kudos scenario, with the player asking for too high wages and waiting for a larger club.

Seems like he has been handpicked for Hürzeler’s system. He’ll be playing with up to 3 other Dutchman in and around our back line. What more could he want?

Dunk

 

[Change at Barnham]

With 4 Dutchman in our team I think another orange away shirt would be nice.

 

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

I assume he’s flying over now if he’s not at Lancing already?…

For everyone to do that 'bouncy dance thing' on the concourse every game in honour of our orange friends.
