He's back training with the team, so it's 50/50 he'll be getting minutes in a month. https://www.ligainsider.de/timothy-chandler_643/mannschaftstraining-mit-chandler-260644/
His German is rough but it will improve in time. Just needs to work his tail off in all that he does.
There he is! And making his first appearance in training: @tyler_adams14! 🙌🇺🇸 🔴⚪ #DieRotenBullen #WelcomeTyler pic.twitter.com/2zXssvVt9m— RB Leipzig English (@RBLeipzig_EN) January 4, 2019
Sounds like he's doing well so far. Kid is incredibly mature. If you haven't listened to the podcast he did with Grant Wahl about a week ago, go check it out. 🗣️ More from Tyler: "I'd like to offer as much as I can in training. At the same time, I've got to remain patient. I want to fight for gametime out on the pitch."What we like to hear! 😄💪🔴⚪ #DieRotenBullen pic.twitter.com/aZ8BpXJZAK— RB Leipzig English (@RBLeipzig_EN) January 4, 2019
I was worried they were just going heavy Tyler Adams on their English feed, but they did the same on their German feed, just used different words!

Just gotta ask, how tall is young Mr. Adams. He looks about 5'6"? Not trying to incite a big discussion on height in soccer but dang the US sure don't seem to produce elite soccer athletes in the "average" 5-10 to 6" range.
How tall!!!! How tall!!! Well looking at the microphone height while sitting down and assuming that he is proportioned to the golden ratio as most humans are.... carry the one.... height of chairs in Germany according to IKEA sales....factoring in camera lens variances...
