All Things Transfer [Summer '08]

[Rust_In_Peace]

I know this is off topic, but am I the only one who can't access the main Werder forum?

Everytime I click on the main forum it says "Site Under Maintenance"

Works for me, direct link:

Maybe you need to empty your browser cache, and try again.

meant the forum on BS lol ;)

[hackespitze123]

Huh? BS = Bigsoccer? Yesterday there were some massive problems with the server, but I had no problems whatsoever today.

I haven't been able to access the forum for weeks!

All of other club forums work except the Werder one...

i'd have thought we'd buy another player after the bargain we got off pizza. can't really tell how well he will do at the moment, but i'm excited to see if he's still got some firepower left in him. he may have saved all the goals for chelsea to let explode for werder :p

but i'm a bit curious now, where does harnik fit in the scheme of things?

[waterboyro]

I think Harnik will now be a sub for the right midfielder position.

[WerderDownUnder]

According to that article I posted above, Werder pays €1.5m for the loan, and €2.3m of Pizarro's wages of €3.6m a year, the rest is paid by Chelsea.

Excellent business, Herr Allofs. :D

.

So basically chelsea arent payin anything. Since u said we pay €1.5m for the loan and €2.3m worth of wages, which chelsea would normally pay €3.6m a year... isnt that a profit of €200,000 for chelsea??

But one less player able to play for them.

About Pizarro:
Player in a form crisis. Typical Werder deal. :)
Hopefully he finds his form back and the team
can benefit from his experience.

Bremen currently holds 6 strikers:

Rosenberg
Almeida
Pizarro
Sanogo
Harnik
Hunt

Is someone going to leave?
I personally think Bremen should have strengthened their defense. They could have asked Chelsea to loan Ivanovic instead of Pizarro whom they don't really need.

[Rust_In_Peace]

Hunt and Harnik usually play in midfield...

I know hunt plays in midfield but I didn't know Harink does. Maybe I'll start watching more Bremen games to get a chance to see the younger players.;)

I think the Pizarro signing is a good things,
he brings experience to our young strikers.
Furthermore the loan conditions are very good.
Applause for mananger Allofs for good negotations. :)

Good point.

If we have the opportunity we should sign a
class defensive midfielder and if a full back leaves
a class full back.

But this will propably not happen this transfer period. :(

Thanks.:)

Pizarro is probably going to be a starter but the question is alongside who?

Rosenberg of course .

I wouldn't pencil in Pizarro in the starting lineup just yet. He has to acclamated with his new teammates. Of course, theres still a very underrated Hugo Almeida too.

[LebenslangGruenWeiss]

Martin Harnik is more of a forward than a midfielder but his natural position is that of a forward-winger which doesn't exist in Bremen - though Schaaf tried it in the preseason a few times with Martin on the right and Hunt or Husejinovic on the left wing.

It's always hard to predict but I think Rosenberg is the #1 forward at the moment. Pizarro will have the advantage of being new. I think both Sanogo and Almeida are very close to those 2 though. I think Harnik will get playing time as well because of his versatility. He's also able to play right fullback.

Lads, we should go for this keeper. ;)
