Marco Stiepermann

[Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,557]

Next German on the way to Norwich is Marco Stiepermann.

Midfielder, more attacking and can play on either flank. 6ft 3 so another big lad.

[Fr. Chewy Louie 137]

Based on the YouTube clip I just watched, he scores or sets up a goal literally every time he touches the ball. Promising.

Heinz??

Few bits and pieces coming out of Germany. Manager was asked about it yesterday and straight batted it.

Stiepermann hasn''t trained with his club today and things seem to be happening.

He''s an attacking midfielder?

What could this mean to the current squad, another exit?

[Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,557]

I think he would add extra depth to the wings.

There is only Josh, Wildschut and Watkins currently who are really wide players. Stiepermann can play out wide as well as central. Versatility seems to be a thing with Webber signings.

Seems to fit with his comments on the Scrimmage

If this happens it''ll be five and I''m liking it.

They mostly seem to come as young players with potential and who have played at a decent level in Germany.

The exceptions are Vrancic who is older but seems to be the pick of the bunch and young Zimmermann from a lower league who was initially bought in as back up but might be better.

None of them has broken the bank, far from it.

Only one or two needs to come off and we are quids in. More than that and we have a successful unit on our hands.

By looking at the clip it does seem as if he fits in with Farke''s idea that it is the setting up as much as the scoring that is importantA precision pass where the scorer will be expected to hit the target 9if only the goal).This fits in with the idea that it is about which player is available rather than players moving about in some restrictive formation.The commentator also pronounced his name a schteamerman
