We are obviously in the need of 1 or 2 faster central defenders.
At some Point we had a guy called Kevin Wimmer here. I don't remember him at all. Did he really have 17 chances? I must have been unable to follow Stoke during that short period, at least on TV (and irl since I live hundreds of miles away).
So I ask the one's who have actually seen him play? What are his pros and cons? Can he really be worse than what we have atm? What's wrong with Kevin Wimmer, if anything?
Is it Worth trying to get him back?? Is it even possible? When?

Do our ancient set of CBs need a Wimmer Frame to go with their recently acquired Batth Chair?

I don't know. Can he move his body quickly in all the right directions? Can he pass the ball to the players waiting for it? Good at free kicks? Headers? A great penalty taker? Long throw ins?
I'm wondering why £18M.

He's not very good. Just like all our other defenders.

And they pay me a lot less than that waster.

What’s right with Kevin Wimmer?

Mark Hughes on signing Kevin wimmer
"Bringing Kevin here is a real coup in my view, because he is a hugely talented young player who will undoubtedly add further quality to the group...There is a lot of money being spent this summer, so for us to get a player of Kevin’s calibre through the door for the price we have paid, in my opinion, is something we will really appreciate for years to come"
😁
Way to go, Mark.

Haha we paid £18 million for a sunday league defender, we'd be lucky to get ANY money back I've been reading the hannover forum , apparently they think 12m is too much for Kevin as he's not been very good but they seem to be putting it down to " a tough time on the island" as he was half decent in his last stint in germany at koln . It maybe possible we could sell for a lot less or in an extreme case offer him as a free transfer to get his wages off the books. Hopes are of course he hits the 24 games but with hannover bottom it's unlikely they will want to pay 12m euros if relegated

What is wrong with Summer? Let's forget about his skill level and look more at his character. He came here and played against his old club Spurs and we got thrashed. At the end of the game he was do happy applauding fans and hugging ex team mates. Not one ounce of emotion shown of a man who is passionate about his club, his fan and defeat.
He could be the great centre back on the books and I would have him nowhere near out sqaud. He isn't interested and no winning mentality for the cause!

I thought Batth was our best player yesterday. Williams should never have been at Stoke as he isn't any better than Shawcross or Indi. Indi is a central defender and really is hung out to dry at left back in my opinion. The problem is that they are all better than Wimmer who is a joke of a footballer.

And if he plays Clucus left back we have no hight in the middle I'd rather only have midgets in the middle than Clucas right now, he can't stop a ball and he can't pass a ball. He needs a break now! I thought he played ever so well in first games for us, but now he seems just like a shadow of that.

I'm wondering why £18M.You and everyone else mate. The figure of £18 for a serious underachiever has become something of a standing joke at this club.

This £18mil splash really was strange, if not even suspicious.
Like others we will never get to know, but if other people are spending large amounts of my money I would be wondering where is it going .🥺

We still need 3x new CHs, having signed Batth.
Shawcross - past it. Williams - not our player/past it Martins Indi - too casual, which in this League equates to shite.

We never sang a song for Wimmer, but if we did it would be “you’re just a shit Philip Wolscheid”.

With our defending this season we might as well recall him if we can and give him a go.

I'd have him in the team instead of Williams every single day of the week.

We could bring back Wolly as well - just imagine Wimmer and Wolly as our CB pairing !
