Die Knappen! Schalke 04 07/08 thread (part 3) [R]

[Schwalker]

Am I the only one that likes how Andreas Müeller conducts his business?
To my surprise I´m not missing Rudi..:D

Müeller was at the supporters bar "AufSchalke" the other day and there where things discussed of course..I´ll update you somewhat.

Transfers...We will not be stressed to overpay for players, as everyone knows that we are rolling in russian mafia money they ask the moon for any player we are interested in.

These players are?...Heiko Westermann, Albert Streit and some others (secret stuff)
Jermaine Jones and Schober are already done deals though!

[Schwalker]

what kind of player is timo kunert? has he played many games?

And ozil too, where does he play?


This is the only thread for the entire season..wow I thought schalke would have more fans than that on here


You don´t find it odd that there are German footy fans here at all?
We got our own club forums, some of them really huge...

Kunert is a defensive midfielder that might be on his way out, Özil is a creative midfielder that we expect great things from..when he gets a bit older that is!

ok, thanks for the info again man!

Heiko Westermanns transfer is a done deal..which is nice :)

[European16]

is streit coming to schalke?????

http://kicker.de/fussball/bundesliga/startseite/artikel/366710/

i wouldnt mind him at all:)

edit: nevermind i just read it and i guess it probably wont go through..

[Schwalker]

Like most deals that "might" be done it depends on several factors...Like what we are going to do with Azaouagh, it might be that he goes to Eintracht with some money and Streit is coming our way...No one knows really ;)

[Schwalker]

Hmm, noticed that we play Dynamo Dresden in a "friendly" the 18th of July...Hopefully the Dresden "lads" are saving themselves for the game against Leeds later :cool:

[Schwalker]

A lot of transfer activity lately...

Lincoln is as good as gone...That´s bad

Rakitic almost home...Very very good.

Westermann is already in place..That´s good!

Andreassen under negotiation...I wouldn´t mind him in a Schalke shirt


Yeah, not that bad really...there are other names being mentioned but let us stick with the important and believable ones!

[The Old Lady Hertha]

If Andreasen is signed, will you guys finally drop Ernst? lol he's poor IMO

[F96]

Don't talk bad about my man Fabian. ;)

[Schwalker]

If Andreasen is signed, will you guys finally drop Ernst? lol he's poor IMO

Depends...:D

But in general Slomka are moulding Schalke into a typical 4-3-3 team right now.
So we sign players with pace, pace becoming as important as technical skills to us right now.

[roxbury]

Hi Schwalker


There is many rumours news about Appiah & Schalke line......

I think, He will end up with Schalke.
His club will push their chance to keep Him..but, from his comment and recent news, I gues, He will go to your club.

Good luck to the your club in upcoming CL and Bundesliga


A special luck to Halil and Mesut:)

Thanks, good luck to your team as well...

I´ll mention it to Halil and/or Mesut after the next training I attend. Not that they really need it, as they grow up in Gelsenkirchen they know how much we wish them luck...:)

PS....I got a little tip for you, watch out for Ufuk Özbek, 15 y.o and plays for our juniors...Brilliant goalscorer and was actually given a special treat as he was the one that before the Champions league final walked out with the referee carrying the matchball.

[roxbury]

Thanks for the replay.
