    The situation I'm lead to believe is that Leipzig are not meeting Werder's demands. So, it's just Villa with an accepted bid and we just waiting for Rashica to decide on us or not. We're assuming that he's waiting for Leipzig, or another CL team to pipe up the cash. This seems like it's not happening and now there's a dilemma that's in Villa's favour...

    The dilemma is Werder, It seems that they're broke and have a poor team overall. To improve their overall team they need to raise funds, like (reluctantly) selling their best player and use that money to pick up key signings to fill the bad patches in the team. Hopefully this will help them get back up the table. If he stays, it's still a problem, because they can't improve the squad and almost certain to struggle in the league again. Another problem, Werder can't wait, they need the money ASAP to give them time to recruit  new players.

    So if he has any care for Werder he has to go, probably reluctantly. If he chooses to stay or wait, he's hampering Werder's ambitions to fulfil his personal ambitions. Which wouldn't be a cool thing to do.  Because of this, I feel we're in a good shout to signing him (presuming everything we've been told is true)

    Also, his delaying shows something about the guy as a footballer, he has footballing ambitions, not money ambitions. We've apparently offered him a bigger contract, more money than Leipzig. Yet, he desires CL football and rather wait for it. If we do get him, I feel he will put an effort in, regardless of Villa not being his first choice.            

    (1) Let me stop you right there. Our squad is actually quite good. Last season was a horror show for many reasons (You should have a look at our injury record, the many set pieces we conceded. There were huge pre season mistakes that are hopefully not gonna happen again). We have made some key signings already and the only one left is another defensive mid (Currently 1 + 1 young CDM are in). The new one will probably join on loan.

    Werder have asked for one credit and are expected to have it granted. Yes, A Rashica exit is desired because it will bring lots of money in, but if he is sold, only a replacement will be signed (no, Chong is not the replacement). So apart from the one CDM, our squad is fully prepared for the upcoming season.

    (2) On the second one I partly agree. I don`t think he would join Villa just to help Werder raising funds, but I do think Villas chances are far better than the media are saying since I don`t see Red Bull meeting Werders demands at any point.

    I just saw a tweet from Kosovan Football 4hrs ago saying Rashica wants Bremen to accept Villa's bid...

     

     

    Pro: Rashica himself follows that account.

    Con: Deichstube never reported that!

  3. Well, historically both our clubs are massive football clubs. 

    But the glory days are simply in the past. Even though, in my opinion Villa would be a good next step for him, I can understand his hesitation.

    Um, except that Mordor actually is Birmingham, the two towers are supposedly in Edgbaston and, well, let's face it Isengard is the University Of Birmingham...

    Seeing this, makes me remember. I was in Birmingham once. It was 4 years ago. The one time, I was walking beneath Old Joe, it actually chimed 3 seconds later. :D  That was a near miss! ^^

    Have any other Bremen players posted from the airport? Also, wouldn’t they be flying in club gear for a training camp? Clutching at straws 😂

    I quickly went through all instas (I might have forgotten some) and none of them has posted anything. 

    But it is known that they leave for the training camp in Zillertal in Austria today.

     

    Edit: Ah, seeing the twitter post now.

    Are they usually right??! 

    I can`t really tell, since I have not been a member for that long, but they are trusted and their information correlates.

    Man City have a lot of history. Leipzig didn’t even exist 15 years ago. Plus you can’t go from not existing to buying success in a FFP environment. It’s incredible. 

    In germany, clubs are fan owned. But Red Bull Leipzig is a commerce product that Red Bull pumped in money that other Bundesliga clubs can only dream of.
