Matthijs de Ligt | Bayern Munich
- Thread starter RDCR07
- Start date
I predict he'll win the league title next season.
Great signing
Apparently his father is fat.
I read this all the time. What’s the context of this?
No expert on the subject but I guess over a long period of time he has consumed more calories than he has burned.
Wish we had gotten him back in 2019 but I guess it wasn't worth dealing with Raiola (rip).
Still he doesn't really look like a bayern signing, wonder if they're on the right path but then , they're just too big to fail.

Anyone think of united were in for him it would’ve been a huge saga
We wanted him but our scouts said his pa is fat so he'll be as well, so we passed.

Did Juve want to sell him? It feels weird to do so after winning the race to sign him only a few years ago, when he was a teenager.
Once upon a time we had scouts who used to find George Best, now we have this
Sorta like De Ligt's father....
yeah they did because he has two years left and isn't signing a new deal
sensible from them
Ah, thanks. Thought it was going to be something like this. Scouts are weird people. Whenever I read stuff like this, I have to think about that one scout in Moneyball, who doesn't want a certain player, because his girlfriend is not good looking enough and that's a sign of a lack of confidence.
He was probably going to run his contract down if they didn't sell.
Yeah, my thoughts exactly as it's the one I always get reminded of when things like this come up as well , always wondered how accurate that was but reading stuff like this does make it seem it had a modicum of truth to it.Ah, thanks.

See the positive side, it could have been worse....Once upon a time we had scouts who used to find George Best, now we have this
Jesus, it's not gonna go away, is it

I'm pretty sure this is a thing in football. Or at least was.
I guess we can find these things in every sport there is. In truth we are all biased in one way or another. Which is the reason I like statistical analysis in sports so much. They add a layer of objectivity.
Top signing
Bayern have done some good business with Gravenberch, Mane and De Ligt. I don’t think they’re finished either they still want another midfielder.

The Dutch Maguire.
I think he really looks like a Bayern signing. Our system is far more similar to that of Ajax as that of Juventus was - so it probably is a connection that matches to both sides. We needed someone that is tactically intelligent and can be loud as the other defenders just are too less communicative - and who is able to play with the ball. And who is good at heading as the other defenders aren't.
But actually - how does a Bayern signing look like?
Yes he ate diamonds. @glazed
This transfer was wrapped up much quicker than I expected. Bayern’s transfer efficiency is unreal.
Not overly expensive is one.

The fee for de Ligt is €67m + €10m in possible add-ons. The €67m is to be paid in four installments.

Ten Hag and van Gaal. Bayern's best agents...
Well if he just ate diamonds he wouldn't be fat at all despite the millions of calories they contain. In fact he would have died of starvation. I'd be happy to explain in great detail over a period of months...
Absolutely the best club he could sign for. He's going to be their TopTop CB for a long time.
I wonder what LVG told FdJ about us.
He did though?Boss, what do you think about me joining your old club?
Furthermore shows how much we overpaid for Martinez. We are abysmal on the transfer market, amateurish compared to Bayern.
Most other teams are. Bayern is just on another level.
But let’s not forget that they spent over 200 million on CB’s over the last 3 years (Hernandez, Upamecano, De Ligt). No other team on this planet did that.
At least they got some quality..
From one easy league to another
Bayern is going for David Raum or Konrad Laimer next
These are the kind of posts I aspire to write one day. Beautiful.How exactly does it make sense to claim we overpaid for a player who hasn‘t even played for us yet? In what world can you seriously judge the value of something you haven‘t even used?
this world?
He's not that good.
