1 - Marc-Andre ter Stegen

[vuji_31]

Just pack your things bro. You have been amateur for years. There is no Barto here to save you.

Last memory on Anfield/Roma.

Last mental midget.

This guy is a fraud.
1 good season every 4 years

Biggest fraud I've seen in football and the worst signing in this club's history.

You will never see such a poor player be an undisputed starter and terrorize a top club for 10 years.

I'm his biggest hater on these forums and I should be celebrating this fraud leaving, but I can't even do that given how sickening it is that this was allowed to go on for a decade.

Still a bit surprised as I did think there will be certain German bias.
If all this is happening, Flick truly is king.

He is a fraud. All German coaches saw that he wasn't that good and would never be the #1 for the NT. It's our dumbass front office led by Bartomeu back then that was praising him.

Ter Stegen: "I know I will play for Barcelona next season."

Ter Stegen: "I know I will play for Barcelona next season."

Default answer. Not the time for him to really think about his future.

After the friendlies we will see. If the club says he's not the starting keeper anymore, who knows. I wouldn't hold my breath, but at least there's some leverage with him potentially losing Germanys #1 spot.

So, it is becoming clear that Stegen is not rated as even back up material by Deco and Flick?

Not necessarily, they might simply don't rate him as no1 and with him being on high wage and team captain, it will be better for us to get rid of his money and reinvest it elsewhere while not having to deal with him being on the bench as a possible distraction.

Imagine if Garcia has a bad stint early on while Marc is on the bench? There will be many Catalan papers talking about how he is a fraud and we should start the captain again. No need to put our new GK in such situation.

Club captain, on high wages with contract until 2028, starter for Germany.

Most ot the idiots in here - > "he's third choice after Pena!"

My take on all this:
- club saw how poorly covered we are at GK and wanted to get at a decent backup and maybe future starter
- Pena is terrible and Tek is retired
- 25M is not much, we spent this kind of money before on Neto and Cillesen
- so we tried this before - getting a decent young/ish challenger/rotation option for Stegen
- who knows, maybe they might try the Stegen - Bravo rotation this season with Garcia
- if Garcia really is the business then he takes over as No 1, if not we sell at a profit
- anyway, much better to have Stegen - Garcia than Pena - Tek or Stegen - Pena

Yeah I think he's better than Pena, definitely. Need to see how this Garcia guys gets on though, if he signs. Hopefully be good.

Looking like a goat out there. Cancel the Garcia deal.
