Marc-Andre ter Stegen

[kupest]

I've said it for weeks, Joe is toast, or at least in terms of bringing in a new No.1.

Is the Ter Stegen thing true TH?

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

We should be a lot further down the line with the solution though, first day of the season and we don't know who is going to play one of the most important positions on the pitch.

Whilst you are correct, it does always depends on the stature of the replacement you want and the club they are already at.

Ter Stegen has been aware of our intentions for a number of months.

you think this ter stegen rumour has legs then tolm....

It's true he is the one we want and he fancies it, but the info posted that it is now done, is still a little up in the air.

Anything can happen in a fortnight and Barca and Hart also have to factor in their own next moves.

To have Ter Stegen and Rulli fight for it?

Personally I would prefer we got Bravo, binned Willy, have Joe learn the system and then in a couple of years have either Gunn or Rulli with Hart as back up

I'm sure Joe will be keen :(

We don't but our manager 100% does...

Who would even buy Hart and would he even go? I have my doubts about the whole thing

Ter Stegen for 67 mil (buyout) doesn't sound as bad as it does on the surface if we get 35 for Hart (as was rumoured a few months ago) and we have our goalie for the next 10 seasons. Talked myself into it after watching Hart and Caballero trying to play the Pep way vs Arsenal.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Not claiming to be itk but been told by my brother that this is close. He texted me saying " ter Stegen is close and hart is free to leave" this is from a guy who works at city. Who he is and what he does I have no clue. It's probably bullshit. Just thought I'd share.

He texed me at 8am so before the tweet came out.

Joe would HAVE to leave in such a situation! It is very clear. And I suppose he would have been told in detail.
Several PL clubs would be interested as he is Englands no.1
I don't see a problem there. If Pep wants him to leave it is all about the right fee.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

By' eck, I'm not having a go at Pep. Never will, I just believe he can develop Joe to play exactly the way Pep requires.

but it's not as easy as that.

Everton and maybe West Ham probably the only options in England

 

[Hamann Pineapple]

Currently injured so fits our strategy. Done deal for me.

 

[doobyedoobye]

I'm still surprised that the keeper we have starting today is not Pep's first choice. It's clear that the footballing keeper is one of the key pillars to a Pep team and he's been coming for such time long time you would have thought it would have been one of the first deals / positions to have been finalised.

Ha ha you are not kidding. We are the fcking masters of this!

Then I don't get why only 2 clubs would be interested in Englands no.1 and one of the best keepers in the world.

All this dicussion is more about 'religion' than about managing a huge company...
Pep is here to make difficult decisions and now he is doing it. He is a doer.

Just a thought: is ter Stegen really 'injured'? Might be in our favour this time....

 

[ScottSinclair]

Don't know if already posted, but a guy on the City page MCFCjustsayin that usually get things right, and obviously has some sources close to the club has said ter Stegen already is done.

Has it ever occurred to you that it's because he's not one of the best keepers in the world. Not sure even West Ham would take him over Adrian. Everton is Hart's best option if you ask me.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Wow...if this has been done. A future world no.1 keeper for me in Ter Stegen. He fits into Pep's methods, feel bad for Joe but he hasn't been the same since we actually won the title. I know he had the best defence in front of him then, but mistakes and flaws are exposed when that isn't the case. We all know that his distribution is occasionally woeful as well.

I think we all understand you can't be sentimental in these times if we want to move forward, and if Pep doesn't think Joe ( at 29 ) can't change into the style he needs then he will get the keeper that fits the bill.

With all the young players along with Ter-Stegen if we do get him, this team under Pep after 12 months will be a beast
