Ron-Robert Zieler - Confirmed

[tsintskaro]

Kasper improved a lot through season.At first if i considered him as a keeper who just doesnt  make fatal errors and he was stable good/avarage keeper.Than he made some great saves and showed real character 

I dont see anyone replacing him right now

[Lesteban]

This is a very positive step IMO. We can expect to see more signings that provide direct competition for the quality already in the first team. Providing they all have the right attitude, the competition can only improve us more - and add strength in depth. 

[filbertstreet]

well that came out of nowhere

[foxes21]

Will he know some of our lads from man u as he came through their youth ranks didn't he?

[ealingfox]

Very nice work. Quality player in a bargain deal and great lateral thinking, initiated on the quiet and hopefully wrapped up quickly. Think he will put Schmeichel under serious pressure.

well that came out of nowhere

 

 

I very much doubt that.

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Will he know some of our lads from man u as he came through their youth ranks didn't he?

 

Yep, exactly the same time as Drinkwater...

 

[Foxxed]

Sorted. A GK and CB seem all but done. ST/LRW in the pipeline too. Walsh isn't ****ing around. Excellent.

[weller54]

Will he be a happy Ron Bob just warning our bench Conrad style?

[ealingfox]

We do Ron Ron Rob, we do Ron Rob

[Poznan34]

Doesn't he qualify as a home grown player for the Champions League as well?

Yes he does. Good business.

[Harry96]

Great signing

[Buzzell]

Great business by the club.

[dbtcity]

From absolutely nowhere, having 2 quality keepers is going to be massive next season, no more constantly worrying when Kasper picks up a little niggle here and there

[theessexfox]

Surely we're not struggling for home grown players anyway?

[Guest]

Very happy with this.

 

Kasper finished the season brilliantly but every season he goes through a weak patch. This guy has been the German No.2 and wants to get back in his national side. Could be lifting the CL trophy this time next year. 

[Alex_LCFC]

Think were going to do what barca do with there keepers. One for all cup games and the other for all league games

[dedlock]

If this deal is done it's a real statement of intent.

Competition for Kasper.

A signal that there may be further quality additions throughout the squad.

[Guest Manini]

So I'm guessing this bloke is Germany's version of Jack Butland? (But older)

[LegendOfJoe]

Are we going to do a Barcelona, Bravos in the league and Ter Stegen in the champions league? Cant see kasper being happy about not playing champions league though 

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Is this a confirmed deal or just rumour?

[Guest CityFan 06]

Sounds like an excellent signing, important to have a quality number 2 alongside Kasper. 

[st albans fox]

Is this a confirmed deal or just rumour?

Confirmed by Hannover that we have activated his release cause ( yep - one of those !) and he is rravelling for a medical.

We rarely comment until deals are done and dusted.
