Julian Green at SpVgg Greuther Fürth

Scored a goal or got an assist, I think. Is he the captain?

Interestingly, Benko and Gaudino are also playing. I think Green just needs to keep playing and producing. Sounds simple, in reality is complex, but he's shown what he can do when he's in form at this level.

I don't remember all my German lessons, but I'm pretty sure that Schweinfurt means pig-fart.

 

In my childhood days I firmly believed Wa"shington" must be a place where people would go and wasch their ham.

 

Uh, not quite. "Furz" is fart, a "Furt" is a shallow area of a river (a ford I think you call it in English?), prime locations for the development of cities.

I assume that at Schweinfurt the river was low enough for a pig to pass through it...

 

Swineford would actually be pretty straight translation.

Sigh.

 

We get that it was a joke. This is the German way of telling you it wasnt a good one.

 

Gute Fahrt!

 

It did kind of fall into the Schweinsteiger=pigmounter category.

 

Yeah, pedantic scolding is always a great way to liven up a party.

 

Kindergarten jokes neither.

 

Don't worry, 1860, you're our star jasmine!

Good for confidence at least. He needs to be scoring more if he's at this level.

 

Too soon to close the book on Julian. He's only 20, yes a bit disappointing that he didn't take a loan to play at a higher level this season; however, I still believe that he can become a regular NT starter out on the wing.

 

Yep to all of the above. He's extremely unlikely to make it at Bayern, and no shame in that - plenty of players don't make it at these super-club academies but still go on to play at high levels and in WCs, Euros, etc.

The cynical among us (there are a few on these boards, or so I'm told) would suggest that he's stepping up a gear with the transfer window opening in 6 weeks, but that would never happen, would it??

 

Would be nice to see him get 1st team minutes with a decent club. He's still 20 years old so I haven't lost faith, wasn't his fault he was called into the full NT before he was remotely ready....somehow managed to score a lucky goal anyway.

 

Green's a very good prospect for us, even if he doesn't make it at Bayern right now. That doesn't mean he won't be playing for Bayern or a top club in 5-10. Sometimes players don't get a proper shot right out of the academy, and then go on to prove they are good enough once they get consistent first team playing time at a slightly lower level.

 

Patience is key
