This family he's got in LA is made up isn't it?

NYC, not LA. 7 hour flight

Really pleased if he stays but i thought he wanted to leave after this season! but what's one more year.

[kingfox]

Well he has been better than Chilwell this season, so it’s unsurprising to see him being given a new contract.

Well deserved IMO, he plays at a high whenever selected despite his age and lack of game time. Additionally he’s looked comfortable as a CB, LB and LWB and has European experience. 

 

I wonder what he will do when he’s finished playing football? I suspect his business enterprises indicate he’ll go into that area but Fuchs is intelligent and charismatic and could make a good manager. 

Would make a good pundit.

[Guest Cujek]

Hope he signs.

I'd go further and say he'd probably be a good host! He has tons of charisma and is very comfortable in front of the camera.

Top bloke but it's more evidence of a disturbing lack of ambition.

I'll be honest last year I was very skeptical about him getting a new deal given his constant chat about going to America in the past. Was also unsure if his legs would keep going at this level.

 

However he's proven himself a reliable option in replacement or off the bench. Frankly I would even presently have him above Chilwell in the pecking order given the respective form of the two this season.

 

Club legend. One of the Immortals. All round top bloke. Delighted if he stays another year.

 

Zero Fuchs Given.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again, he must really hate New York.

 

"Yes dear, I know I said... but the boss...  no, I didn't categorically promi... can't rely on Ben... of course I could play for the Jets... Erm, anyway, I've been working on a book..."

Nothing wrong with keeping reliable fringe players at the club. It's what Fergie's long term success was built on. Knowing that he could call on Butt, O'Shea, Brown etc and play them even out of position and they'd still turn out a 7/10 performance.

I don't think this has got anything to do with ambition. He's a squad player. A decent one at that.

Seriously, and I don’t want to get carried away, but, has there ever been a better free transfer in the history of football?

Sol Campbell to Arsenal.

I'd like to bet he offers much more than his playing ability in terms of the support and input he has to other players which would be the main reason BR wants to keep him for another year

[LestaAl]

If his wife and family let it happen it will be great news but not sure it’s what he wants. 
A very wise and intelligent player and hope his legs can hold out for the next season with, hopefully , CL matches.

[Stevosevic]

Chance to play in the CL again may be the clincher. 

 

Wasn't he supposed to leave in 2018? 

[red5]

I think he'll be after Birch's job.

Pretty much agree with this. I love him to bits but I'd rather we let him move on with our blessings and get a left back who we can rely on to really challenge Chilwell for his place, or potentially replace him. 

[Dahnsouff]

He must love it here, or his tied to some long ass term tenancy......

[Bob Farley]

Is he better than Bruno Berner though? 

[Blue ROI]

With Europe a possibility it's more than likely we'll need players like James,Fuchs and Amartey to get on the pitch during the League Cup/FA cup.

 

Fuchs is still very useful for us. He'd be foolish to turn it down. Money for ol' rope. Come on Christian y'know it makes sense.

I love Fuchs to death, but I'm not sure hes quite as good with a mic as his social media might suggest.

 

I heard him deliver an incredibly dull interview on radio 5 about his e sports thing a few months back. I was taken aback at how dull it was. Maybe it was the subject matter.

Typo

[FoxinNotts]

Does anyone think he’ll sign it?

Just his agent playing his last hand I suspect
