Tete to Lyon http://www.ajax.nl/streams/ajax-actueel/ajax-en-olympique-lyon-akkoord-over-tete.htm

Fun fact: couple of years ago there was a club-trained player at Lyon named Jeremy Pied (foot). The 2nd keeper, also from the academy, is Mathieu GORGElin (throat). Now they just signed Kenny Tete (head).

'Rüdiger' is actually a first name (= Roger) and it is probably the most out-of-fashion, undesirable, unattractive German male first name of all.

There's always fashions and retro trends with kids' names, after years of Christians, then Philipps, then Jonases and Lukases lately even some Wilhelminist antique names like Friedrich or Wilhelm came back into fashion.
I could imagine Hipster parents calling their son Herbert, or Gustav.

But Rüdiger won't come back into fashion. Laughing

I went to school with someone with Rüdiger as a last name. Don't think he ever showered. Not a fan.

On the other hand, 5 € fee for 2 years loan plus a option to buy for 35m... He is basically as expensive as Coman LMAO

It's a great 'deal' regarding the money figures, but I fail to see what sense his signing makes in terms of our team.

Where will he play? Ancelotti's poverty shit-on-a-stick 4-3-3 already has no place for Müller.
A 4-2-3-1 with Thiago-Vidal double pivot and Müller in his best position worked better, but was not preferred by Ancelotti.
If Ancelotti switches formations to accomodate James yet leaves Müller out he will be walking a tight rope Laughing

Not to mention that I can't see James producing anywhere near the output Müller produces when played in his position.

I do remember James performed really well for Ancelotti initially when Bale was injured, where did he play? As some kind of right attacking midfielder right?

I can certainly see your point but then again I think this might be a problem on paper only as it's not unlikely that you'll (almost) never have a fully fit squad.
So while fitting James in could be tough if everyone is fit that might be a different story as soon as injuries hit and I guess that always happens.

Well we'll see what Ancelotti has planned for him. Maybe he's considered more of a backup considering it's a loan.

That's one pretty big excuse tbf.

by Robespierre Thu Jul 13, 2017 12:40 am

Infact I added yes Proud

tbf I 'm ok with this signing, always appreciated he is not in his peak ( on the other hand we paid him just 5 ) but that price is good.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Jul 13, 2017 1:13 am

I don't actually think he's bad, just people on here used to go gagga for anyone can pass 5 yards and turn in circles.

All part of that Barca phase sadly, i think we are less likely to do so now though hmm

Quite possibly the only transfers that benefit both Madrid and Barcelona.
