Does anyone think Wimmer could knuckle down and make the match day squad or is that too mad for class?

Wimmer was openly quoted in the German press last season stating he didn't want to return to Stoke, so I'm struggling to see what has changed other than his contractual obligations to physically be here.
I hope he gets super fit, has a great pre season and someone comes and takes him off us, wages and all.

I'd be pissing myself as well if a club paid me as much as them, give me all the resources in the world to keep fit and kept me injury free. Laughing all the way to the fucking bank.

Deja vu See Berahino last season, didn’t end well It's very unfair to compare the two, also it's an insult to the many footballers once written off who came back and restarted their careers. As for Wimmer I don't think he could come back and walk into the match day squad even if match fit, because Jones has bought two central defenders in six months, promoted one from within, and is allegedly on the lookout for yet another. That said he hasn't seen Wimmer play once fit, so it's only going to take a hurt back and another injury to another central defender plus another or two gone out on loan, for Jones to be forced to recall Wimmer to the match day team, not just squad. Who's to say he wouldn't do well...

I was around the training ground at lunchtime and I caught a few of the squad going in for their lunches. I can't confirm for certain but I'm sure I saw Moritz walking in with the kids.

This is one of the most important ones actually considering he got given a new contract so surely he's one of the highest paid "players" at the club?!.. as long as someone's gonna pay his wages, it's all good.

Whats the matter with him?? Why doesn´t Stoke let him go?? Nobody can tell me that he is too weak for that team! It seems Stoke are just waiting for any interest at all Unfortunately we stupidly gave him a long-term contract on crazy money, so he's very hard to move. No manager seems to trust him defensively. His manager in Russia thought he was a liability, Lambert played him on the wing, Rowett never played him at all - and neither has Jones. The quotes from his Russian manager are pretty revealing. russianfootballnews.com/an-interview-with-kurban-berdyev-part-two-moritz-bauer-is-very-professional-but-hes-got-huge-shortcomings/Looking from the outside, Moritz Bauer looks like the most professional player. Is that true? (The interview was conducted a few days before several players mentioned below left the club.) Yes, he’s very professional. But football-wise, he’s got some huge shortcomings.
There was a time when I finally lost my patience with him.
I asked him, before everyone’s eyes:
“Moritz, the ball is here, here’s the situation, where should you be?” “Here.” “Are you sure?” “I am sure.”
Then I play the video, and he’s standing in a totally different place, and we get a goal from his zone.

Seems a bit weird, it was after this tweet that Afobe looked a shoe in to start.

His positioning is definitely a bit wank for a right-back.
But he has many other positives (Fast pace, good crosser, can beat a man, long throw-in).
his positives outway his negatives for me

I think they've been told they can leave Stoke, or someone wants them elsewhere. Those are faces of relief IMHO.

When he last played I made sure to keep an eye on him throughout the match as a mate of mine had pointed out how bad his positioning was. He was atrocious. Don't get me wrong his forward play was alright, but he was that bad at the back he can't be chosen.

So after 2 games you’ve decided the bloke that can’t defend is better than Smith🤔Very odd. Bauer has the concentration span of a gnat and will never make a good defender while he has a hole in his arse in my opinion. Another waste of money and whoever gave him that contract extension should be sacked instantly
