...or another Elton classic...'Don't let the Son go down on me'?
Reading some of the comments on Leverkusen forums, they don't seem that gutted to let him go and pretty delighted with the supposed price they'll be getting. I think a fair few million has been added to his value by commercial opportunities his signing creates, and perhaps a better price to reflect his actual value would be around £15 million.

I wouldn't be too worried if their fans aren't gutted about his possible departure. I know plenty of people that weren't too sad to see VDV leave because of the money we were getting, even when Bale left we looked quids in. It's when you try to replace these players when you realise how good the player actually was.

Exactly! I fail to see how a pun and a bit of worldplay on a name can be deemed as racist or offensive
So long as the wordplay isn't based on racial discrimination, I would tend to agree, but it's a very fine line. I wouldn't like it to go any further than it has though.

When did he meet his Waterloo? I missed it. I remember people used to post his stuff on here. What or who did he wind us up about?

He was part of Eatson's circle of bullshit. Tweeting each other along the lines of

"Alright mate - *sniff* - I'm hearing good things are happening with a certain Ajax player."

"Yeah me too - *snort* - nudge nudge wink wink say no more. Gee it's great knowing stuff."

"Yeah it is mate. We know so much stuff it's coming out of our noses on a Friday night when we're desperate for a bit of attention because of our enhanced egos."

Are they any other German speakers here except Wimmer? Any of the Belgians perhaps?
There's an academy player who has played for England and Germany at youth level and is supposed to be fluent in German but I forget the name. The lad qualifies for England, Germany and Nigeria.

Do both of them have perma colds like Mark Chappers Chapman too?

Are you saying they both had some sort of cold?

As seems to happen on here regularly.
