[BELFAST_BLUE_BOY]

very sad news - another great player I recall from my youth and watching world cup before it becam a circus .... a very strong player, skillfull, both feet and a clever player...he had it all...I would say one of the greatest left backs of all time - defo top 3.

RIP Andreas

Another gone long before he should have. Only two years older than me.

A brilliant left-back and a brilliant penalty-taker .

R. I. P. Andreas.

I know of him, he was part of the German machine of the 90s so must have been exceptional. 63! Dad loss.

He was named player of the year in Italy in 1989 when Serie A was the best league in the world. Should tell you everything you need to know about the kind of player he was. :-)

Shocked to hear that. One of my favourite players of that era.

RIP to a top player and by all accounts a top chap too. 63 is no age.

Shocked, he was 2 years younger than me.

Remember him well. Such a great player.
I'm fed up now of seeing so many of that/my generation go.
