Samwam27 606 Posted August 31, 2017 I see reports we''ve made an approach fro 25yr old Matthias Zimmermann, from Stuttgart.The full back, who can also play in midfield, was instrumental in the Stuttgart team who on the Bundesliga 2 title last year, and Crystal Palace are also interested in a deal for the impressive player.Looks promising as he can play right midfield or defense, and better still is a Bundesliga 2 player, much closer to Championship level than the German 4th tier.Thoughts?

Fuzzar 1,861 Posted August 31, 2017 I think we''re weak on the right side of defence. Pinto in a back four is a bit of a liability and I don''t think Martin has the legs for this position any more. So thumbs up, provided of course he can actually defend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted August 31, 2017 Hope this isn''t true. Seems like were just buying any player from Germany now until we find a gem. A CDM and a full back from these shores please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted August 31, 2017 Did I read he is a Right Back? Thats ok, but its a Left Back we desperately need - Declan John has just joined Rangers on loan, a deal like that would be OK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

westcoastcanary 173 Posted August 31, 2017 The Germans being the sane, professional people they are, their transfer window closes at 7pm. They clearly think there are better ways for fans to spend an evening than glued to their keyboards, getting worked up over mostly imaginary possible comings and goings!

Budapest Canary 154 Posted August 31, 2017 I figured out our master plan: our scouts spotted all Zimmermanns and we''ll sign them. Imagine the confusion among our oppositions when they face a team of eleven Zimmermanns. ("I told you to mark Zimmermann, not Zimmermann") . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
