How will Landon Donovan fare in his Bayer Leverküsen debut?

Donovan doesn't play forward - they're using him in midfield. Ain't nobody gonna displace Berbatov.

 

I have the same attitude that Landon apparently has- no big deal if he doesn't start the first few games, just eventually give him his opportunity if his play warrants it. Here's another point why I think he will be successful. Besides his overall talent, he's technically sound and very quick. Unlike lesser athletes, he will adjust to the faster speed of play quite well. And don't forget, a lot of the touches and passes to and from San Jose teammates were not always successful because he played with lesser talents (no offense, Quakes fans). That won't be a problem with Leverkusen.

 

I reckon the kid is world class and will rape the German league winning everything for leverkusen. Donovan >>>>> dare I say L.Messi

 

I don't expect much from Landy at Leverkusen....wait, haven't we done this before...I feel dejavu all over again

 

Come off the bench, play only as a late-game sub

 

He will definitely be able to hang with them. Expect him to be a very influential player

 

I dont see him breaking into the starting eleven, he might start a match here and there, but no more than that.

 

Let's see how many shirts he sells.
