pcassist 107 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) Signed from Coventry, winger. Does that mean we have a winger leaving??????? Edited January 13 by pcassist Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SweeperKeeper 274 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 German youth international, played a decent amount at decent level. Might mean we can play Bahamboula central if he plays on the right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bobledgersheart 632 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Says on Coventry's website he's a midfielder. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SweeperKeeper 274 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Seems to have had some asthma issue which has kept him out of the first team https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/marcel-hilssner-injury-mark-robins-18850584 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Briles 0 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Cov fan here, Signed him with great promise however was diagnosed with a lung condition during pre season. Asthma related. Been receiving treatment and has been active in our u23s and scored some great freekicks. Cracking left foot. Needs competitive league football so hopefully you guys will give it to him.

Longlostfan 54 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Anything respiratory is a concern in these days. I wouldn't want to minimize asthma but it isn't necessarily an impediment although Robins seems to say that is why he is a bit off the pace. Wasn't Warhurst an asthmatic- didn't slow him down too much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I seem to remember that Warhurst really struggled with his asthma whilst at Citeh, I don't know if that played a part in us getting such a Rolls Royce player for the price of a Robin reliant.

Bobby Grant looked impressive on YouTube as well when we signed him, but he's not really been 'pulling up any plants'. That's not to say this guy will be no good, but a few clips on YouTube don't really mean much until we've seen him play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like you've bought Ito modern scouting methods there, any professional footballer could cone up with a three minute highlight reel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For your information I'm putting it on here for fans. I prefer to see them play live and never scouted using videos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a Eszett, or sharfes s and is basically a double s, pronounced as sz, if you can actually do that. I think we'll just call him Marc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can any number, but can only have 5 in a match day squad. If the second bit is a possibility, I'm not doing much over the next few days; I'm happy to give him a lift even though I've no plans to go to Blackpool ever again.

The police will be on your case, stay local, stay safe, unless you are a footballer you can travel all over the country. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OK, I'll stay here. He can make his own way there. The walk will do him good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
