Peter Niemeyer @ Utrecht? Robert Huth @ Middlesborough Michael Ballack @ Chelsea Any other players? This is their thread.
Niemeyer's at Twente actually. Hinkel @ Sevilla Cziommer @ AZ Alkmaar BTW, once one of the player's gets benched, we need to rush en masse to the team's subforum and bitterly whine at how said player gets no respect and how the coach sucks.
Ahh yes! The Stuttgart thread should be nice and busy this season! BTW, looks like Didi Hamann's on his way to Man City. Ah yes, and... Moritz Volz @ Fulham
They already did to the Hertha forum (well the Iranians anyways) Lets get back on topic. I expect Ballack to play a key role in Chelsea. Niemeyer...err Iono, does he have a role in Twente? At least he will be a force for U21s Hinkel...I dunno what to expect, I just hope he can turn out okay. Huth...he becomes a good CB, at least good enough to be a regular. Cziommer...Iono Hamann...Tschuss! I hope he enjoys the last few years of his career while still playing top-level football. Good for him. Volz...Another good season and we'll see him in a bigger team.

I'm mainly interested in the younger Germans abroad who can possibly break into the NT. I really think this is one of the few more key ingrediants Germany misses in order to finally be able to win a WC or EC for that matter. I've been monitoring Volz's progress in the EPL and he is getting better and more confident each season. I also have high hopes for Peter at Blackburn, he started getting some minutes last season and I expect him to start some games this upcoming season. Huth will finally start more games on the pitch than on the bench. It's about time he got his head out of his ass, shame he wasted two years at Chelsea that he could have used elsewhere. Hinkel should be starting at Sevilla since Alves is almost sure to sign with Liverpool. I'm interested to see how a German will do in Spain.
Niemeyer is a quite highly rated youngster in the Eredivisie from what I understand, as is Cziommer (who we (Schalke) should have give another chance me thinks). I think Hinkel could do very well in Spain, as I think his style would fit well in La Liga. Volz had a very good start to last season, but after his injury, his form was horrible, and was benched in favor of Rosenior. I hope he can regain his form.
I think its great how many of our national team players still play in Germany, and players like lahm want to be there.
