Bluesy1874 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I have sent a message too my group full of German friends to ask if the person leaking the story is credible or not and to see if anything has been reported in Germany. Not had a response yet though. Some move if accurate though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Sanchez Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 It'll be a hard going at times but you've got to go. Watching them destroy Barca and a chance to work with Davies at left back. You'd regret it if you didn't try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigO Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Ooft, if true, that's amazing. Will watch closely to see how he does. Will be very interesting. Wonder what the standard is like at 3rd tier Germany??? And also the rate of progression from Bayern B to first team?? What an experience for the boy. Well proud of him.

I've watched a fair few 3.Liga games and I'd say the standard is similar to the SPFL Premiership minus Celtic and Rangers. A semi side ways move with regards to the quality of players he'll come up against but I'd assume the level of training and facilities would be far higher.

Anything2 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 To a certain extent, there's no right or wrong decision for him, unless he goes to Celtic that is. Going to Bayern, he could get lost in the system or he could win a champions league in a few years, great players can come from anywhere so why not him. It's really up to how much he develops and probably a bit of luck one way or another. I think though, given the way he stepped up mentally in such a short time with us that he might thrive in the Bayern environment. And he has proper first team games under his belt including a cup final so he may stand out in the reserve teams and progress quickly.

Riddley Walker Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Really hope this is true. What an opportunity to train and develop with the current best team in the world. His aim has got to be playing for the B team this season and getting a good loan move to a decent team in a top 5 league next season, and taking it from there.

Juho_Makela_Goal_Machine Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Unreal move for him if true, really puts a marker down for other young boys coming through the academy that the opportunity is there if you put the work in.

martoon Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 The right move, if so. Bayern could be the making of him. Stick in, would be my advice, and the world is your oyster. Fantastic chance for him to build a stand out career in the game. Or he could go to Celtic and get feckin nowhere. Backward club in a backwater, corrupt league. Get to Germany, Aaron, and don't look back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ToqueJambo Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Quite the advert for our youth policy if true and something to put in the brochure when attracting young players. This isn't just a big club taking a punt on someone straight from our youth team, like Bayern did with Liam Morrison, it's a player they've been able to assess playing for our first team. Hickey not good enough for Scotland U-21s though 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being able to learn the language is very important to settling in.
