Jonathan Clauss

[Bebestation]

I think with things like possesion and positioning - having fullbacks that can take corners is a great asset because it kind of Uses the most widest player anyway.

I can imagine Shaw and Clauss for example being our corner takers from either side.

His crosses seem to have a bit of “air” to them too.

 

[Drizzle]

Seems like we have actually been scouting players this year.

Positives

It literally doesn't though, given we've become Ajax UK. Apart from this one.

He knows how to ping balls

This video was the best I could see.

Some videos don’t show his ability very well

I’ve got one for FDJ if it ever happens

 

[Rolaholic]

Seems a United fan too this guy

 

[golden_blunder]

A cheap alternative to Trippier

 

[Dazzmondo]

First time visiting this thread. Surprised to see so many hating on Clauss. He is a bit older than I'd like, but he just had a great season with Lens, probably only Fofana performed better for them. Had he been 5 years younger, he would have been an obvious choice to go for. Considering their ages, I would probably still prefer Jeremie Frimpong but for £7m it's hard to say no. Only thing I will say is that I don't think I've ever really seen him in a back 4 since Lens usually play a 3-4-1-2. I think he would suit what ETH expects from his full backs in attack. Whether he could be more suspect defensively in a back 4, I'm not too sure.

 

[Richter]

Feels like a player ETH scouted with Ajax well is worth a gamble at that price Liverpool once signed late bloomer Robertson for 8 million and nobody expected him to be this good.

 

[suheilsworld]

A RB who can use his left foot!! Sign me up.

Lens just trying to get Marseille to up their bid.

 

[therealtboy]

Gives me Dario Srna vibes, who himself aged very gracefully. Clauss could give us a solid 3 years.

 

[We need an rvn]

Is it too pre-mature?

you better watch out
You better not cry
You better not dive
I'm telling you why
Jona Clauss is coming to town

 

[RedDevil@84]

Exactly the player we were all waiting for. Santa is coming to town

So Lens wanted a few extra quid out of Marseilles, that's where this came from.

 

[devilish]

The guy who have him as his secret Santa is one hell of a lucky chap indeed.

 

[horsechoker]

Offer them a balón d'or clauss

 

[RC89]

We've signed one Ajax player and we're linked to one more...

Well if we become a team that plays with the same principle and application as Ajax, with the quality of players within our reach we'll be champions league contenders.

No. An aggregator made up a le10sport report who themselves tend to make up rumours.

 

[croadyman]

Yeah this will show if we are interested at all

 

[izec]

Dont see us bidding for him.

 

[croadyman]

Think the RB situation will only gain pace if we can find a taker for AWB, back to Palace on loan looks only realistic prospect

Eriksen was also a Ajax player in 2010-2013 We signed two

I’d much rather we went for Dumfries or even better but less likely, Hakimi!

What a shocker. We didnt want the 29 year old from the French league

 

[Lash]

It's not the age to be honest, he's a wing back and we still haven't sold Wan Bissaka. I don't see us signing a RB until his future is sorted.

He looks quite a player to be honest. Can he defend though?

 

[Redcy]

It literally doesn't though, given we've become Ajax UK. Apart from this one.

And Malacia

We've literally signed ONE player from fecking Ajax.

Ten Hag just like previous managers will want some players he’s familiar with and who understands his methods. He’s had a close look at Malacia seen as though his teams have played against him many times… that’s what you call personal scouting.

There was 0 chance we're signing a 29 year old from France regardless

Verratti is 29...
