Aha, that's the reason you asked for the line-up? ;)
Beauchamp (did he play for your local Australian club before?) is surely talented, but played only 2 games this season (a derby friendly against Fürth and the BL game in Berlin). Thus I can't really rate him exactly...

Him and Heffernan. In Australia, the media is getting excited that they're at least in the Bundesliga. I want to see if they're actually doing something decent.
Beauchamp played for the Central Coast Mariners. I go for Melbourne Victory.

Heffernan seems to have no chance in Nuremberg (what's his position?), whereas Beauchamp is at least a good alternative for Wolf.
In return they signed another Australian talent named Matthew Spiranovic.

I saw him in the derby against Fürth and very impressed with him (more than with Beauchamp)!
And don't forget the 4th Australian player in the Nuremberg dress:

After 10 games without any victory, 1. FC Nürnberg finally managed to get the 3rd season win at home against Leverkusen thanks to a late Saenko winner:

To be fair, that guy is pretty easy to forget.........

Does he ever get to play in Nuernberg? I doubt i've even seen him a single time all season...

To be fair, that guy is pretty easy to forget.........He wasn't too bad at the World Cup. He didn't score any goals but he did show that he has some decent ball control. Kennedy has mostly played in Bundesliga 2 and he isn't Marek Mintal but what's forgettable about Kennedy?

Heffernan is a left-back.
And both he and Beauchamp played for the FCN amateurs in their loss to Greuther Fuerth amateurs this past weekend.

His game.It's not as bad Viduka's though.

I wouldn't know. Just know they played. I'll ask.
It's not as bad Viduka's though.
I wouldn't say that. I'd rather have Viduka any day.
Kennedy has potential, but that and a Euro will get you a cup of coffee.

Ditto, and the only game I've ever seen him play well was against a Japan team clearly struggling against the elements of heat at Kaiserslautern. Can be a useful player......but they already have a similar player like him in Sibon :confused:

Shocking message for all Nuremberg fans: Playmaker and Bundesliga top scorer from 2004/2005, Marek Mintal, is facing another surgery after his long-dated injury break from last season and it's not sure if he'll be able to play football again. :eek:

What a pity for this modest guy and great player.:(

What a shame! He has one of the best long-range shots in the world. It will be disappointing if Mintal's career ends here.

That's horrible news :(
He was a really good player. The year where he finished topscorer wasn't a flash in the pan, he was just injured all the next years.
He's always been a great player in my eyes. I've never seen him bitch, i've never seen him dive. In fact i never saw him at all in games until he'd score out of nowhere.
I really wish him the best possible recovery and if his career does end here i can just say all my sympathies go out to him :(

With FCN signing Danish international right back Lars Jacobsen for next season, what are FCN's intentions with Dominik Reinhardt?
Are you guys going to bench the kid or sell him??
Inquiring minds want to know.... ;)
I'm certain you guys didn't sign a Danish International to put him on the bench. And what does this mean for Marek Nikl's future in Nuernberg?

Seems like a decent player, we (as in Everton) were linked with him. Should be a decent acquisition.
