It was Uli Hoeness before wasn't it. Now Rumenigge. The amount they're talking about it is a sure sign that they're not in the least bit bothered they didn't sign him.

They're in 'visible from space' territory on the bitterness for me now :lol:

and Lahm.

 

Nagelsmann:

 

 

“Sure, he’s scored two headers now, which was also good and important for him. I think it’s important that you make a good impression when you have such a price tag. He still has a few steps to take within the team. He still needs to find his perfect fit.”

That sort of thing is only likely to motivate a player with the right attitude. So keep it coming I say. We've already seen enough to be fully behind the lad.

It's really odd. It's like us coming out and telling the world several times that Liverpool paid too much for Ekitike. They valued him at more than us and paid accordingly, there's no point in crying about it when it was our decision not to bid further.

I think Bayern expected Stuggart to keep him.for another season, just so they can go back and say "we'll take him now you plebs"

All hail Eddie, the little centre back from division 3 telling the two-time ballon d'or winner that he's irrelevant :lol:

This is the Bayern Munich that paid a £14.3m loan fee for Nicolas Jackson, with a £56.2m OBLIGATION to buy him if he makes a certain number of appearances. 

 

£70m for Jackson if they trigger that obligation. I'd pipe down if I was these lads.

What will be really getting to them, ultimately, is the PL now has more pull than even their very best football club. 

 

The reason they all have to say something, have to justify something, is because the German man has a hideous and inexorable inferiority complex.
 

Sandwiched between the cool and clever Dutch, the confident, suave Italians, the artistic, romantic French and the resourceful, jocular Poles. What are they? Stilted, boring, predictable, safe Germans.  Terrified of being shown up.  
 

This is why they were so easy to coalesce into the best workforce in Europe. Why they rallied for a pint-sized genocidal tweaker. Why they refuse to have anything other than simple caveman food.
 

How do you like them äpfel?

Isn't this now the 4th person with links to Bayern (Hoeness, Freund, Eberl & now Rummenigge) who have spoken disparagingly about us signing Woltemade? Surely if we've 'vastly overpaid' then it requires little comment. 

Smacks of "the cunts doth protest too much" to me. They're fuming they've missed out on him, expecting to snap him up for a snip next summer not expecting 'little Newcastle' to wade in and pay more for him than they were hoping to part with.

This one needs firmly filing in the GAZUMPED, y'fuckas!! section. :finger:

You have to consider whether they have just decided to talk about this or whether they are kept being asked about it.  I often see quotes from Howe's press conferences that look like he's saying one thing, but if you know the question he was actually responding to, it's actually a very different point that he's making.

I've seen the quotes from all of their guys and I've no idea where they have originally come from.  If it's all Bayern press then it's probably correct to assume they have some sort of axe to grind, but if it's coming from questions in the Jorman press, then maybe it's something like there's an opinion in the country they've missed out and they fighting back from their corner.  

 

FWIW after speaking to some locals on my recent trip to Dusseldorf, there didn't seem to be much of an opinion that anyone over there had missed out on anything with him (or any great interest in him at all).  And no cunt seemed to have a clue who Thiaw is, despite him being from Dusseldorf.

It's a reasonable point. 

Wondering if the German media were convinced he was heading to Bayern after impressing at the U21s and our move has fucked up their exclusive leading them to keep asking about it.

Unless he told Bayern he was going there and he's really pissed them off, I find it unlikely that they would keep going on about him without any prompting.  I mean, they clearly not happy about something with what they are saying but it might be mainly because they keep getting asked about him.  Or it could be that they are now seeing first hand how good Jackson is and it's fucked them right off.

Bayern do get asked a lot about missing out on Woltemade by the press. It was the main transfer saga and us gazumping Bayern out of the blue came as a shock to both Bayern and the press.

Bayern missed out on other players as well and have to justify a failed transfer policy. So I guess we will hear about this matter another couple of times.

Lahm as well, 'wrote' that article for the Guardian about him.

A post fully deserving it’s 14 lol responses.
 

I can’t say why, but resourceful, jocular Poles was the line that made me laugh most :lol:

Can see why it's important for us to begin to change the way we play with Woltemade in the team, more possession and less out and out counters. We can still utilise the pace of Gordon and Elanga with Woltemade's range of passing and him dropping deep brings the centre back(s) out to create space in behind. We can still maintain our high tempo pressing outside of possession.
