I'm going to Frankfurt and I'll be Rightback: Timmy Chandler at Eintracht Frankfurt

A way to make a fortune is to buy Chandler for the value he shows for the USMNT and sell him for the value he shows for his club.

Otherwise, he was our best Yank abroad for a while. Wish him well.

 

Hope he waits until after the break. Pushing him back too soon makes no sense.

Two assists already to put Frankfurt ahead 2-1. Timmy2 is so good when he plays for his paycheck!

 

Assist on the first goal, a cutback pass into the box.

He was somebody's MOTM:

Impressive for first game back. Good for Timmy!

 

Then he and our USMNT captain have a lot in common....

 

Made team of the day:

Timmy subbed in in the 42nd minute.

 

Started the 3rd half (team described it as 3 45 minute "halves") in a friendly against Aue:

Frankfurt line-up
Hradecky (Zimmermann 91') – Russ (Knothe 91'), Hasebe (Chandler 91'), Salcedo (Falette 91') – Wolf (da Costa 82'), Fernandes (Mascarell 91'), Willems (Blum 91') – Barkok (Stendera 91'), Boateng (Gacinovic 82'/Kamada 125') – Haller (Jovic 91'), Rebic (Hrgota 46'/Fabian 113')

Gets the start as Eintracht Frankfurt host Freiburg in the Bundesliga this morning.

 

Picked up an assist so far

 

Match ended 1-1 Chandler went 90 minutes with an assist. Fotmob had him rated at 7.5 and in a three way tie for second on Frankfurt.

 

The commentator referred to him as "The former USA international" Did he renounced us?

 

Hasn't played for the US in 14 months so maybe they just figure he's out the picture.

He'll be 32.5 at 2022 WC. I'll let others decide if that's too old for a flank player.

What I suppose is some MOTM recognition:

Timmy Chandler’s goal for Eintracht Frankfurt makes him the 11th U.S. international with six career Bundesliga goals.

He ties Brooks, Cherundolo, Reyna and Wood. 🇺🇸

I'm disappointed that Wood hasn't scored more than that

and damn, sucks that Hamid didn't sign with this club.

Was he playing all game on the left or did he just find himself there for the goal?

 

Played all game on the left
