Bayern fan over here. I think the deal was fair for both teams. I really wanted him t join us from Schalke years ago but our board are cheap ya know, but I'm still really excited about this transfer.
What do you guys think of him as a big game player? Does he show up when really needed?
I kinda didn't follow him much after his departure from Germany.
Definitely a big game player, but if he put in his box early has a tendency to sulk. For me jury is out if he will fulfil his potential. Cant see it at the minute and even less in a farmers league. You get better by testing yourself against the best week in week out. Bar Dortmund I dont see that much quality in Germany plus the way the league is a lot more open will help and hinder in equal measure - help his League stats but hinder his development in CL as teams dont give you the space to run into that Leroy needs, and invariably once hes failed a few times his head drops. Also dont see how he can improve going from the best coach in the world to someone who is hardly inspiring.Bayern fan over here. I think the deal was fair for both teams.

As a big game player, he definitely ticks that box. He has this sort of self assuredness that means he can step up in those moments. But with Leroy, there will be plenty of moments you will be frustrated with him. It's the little things like miscontrolling passes to him and bad touches that mean, despite his very good numbers, he's still quite inconsistent and after a year of not playing football you'll need to be patient with him.
