Glttl, let's just hope he continues to relaunch his Greek here
 
Because I get so little opportunity to put my German football vocab to use:

IV = Centre back
AV = Full back

I have to admit I wasn't sure so left the terms in hoping someone would make sense of them!

Now explain "“He can do something with the ball. Presented a very neat re-launch of the Greek"
 
He played his part um … solidly. It’s ok .. with the many racing pigs in the league that need to be raged, he has to sort his legs first.”

Quality and I think he means his legs need racing. Over to the coaching team to sort that.😎😀

A classic!!!
 



Hopes Foxy didn't realise he edited the post

You would have been safe had you not outed yourself... ;) ;)

I quote...

That is one of the reasons most people who genuinely are 'ITK' don't generally share anything they learn in confidence. That and respect.

At a level where 'marginal gains' are seen as essential, there's absolutely no benefit for someone in a position of trust to be loose with information that key persons wish to keep within a very limited trusted circle.

Well, Roy. It means he can do something with the ball, and that it’s presented a very neat re-launch of the Greek. Do you see?
 
I've checked this forum every day since 2012 hoping for this opportunity...had to check the post 4 times before posting so as not to mess up the big moment
It was a quality opening post. Not controversial, factual, no mention of cap doffing. You'll do well here sir.
 
"He is 19 and just out of the A-junior age; still has eggshells behind his ears and understands hardly a word of German here …"

Is there any wonder lol 🤣

Heard back from my mate with a season ticket there, apparently he's not played enough to properly rate him, but he's OK. At least it's not Coventry's views on Fleck...
 
I doth my cap to you, Roy. These European ‘View From’s’ are going beyond the call of duty! Good on you pal
 



I think this is what they call damning with the faint praise. It doesn't even matter that it's been google translated from German, I'm using this some time myself

"“Found him defensively not that bad. Forward rather harmless”
