DurhamRed 2,047 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I think it's a good signing he will still have the hunger for success will want to push him self for a world Cup spot 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Given the random assortment of GKs we were linked with and settled on Steffen, I wonder if something similar is happening with the strikers? Link to post Share on other sites

AllBoro10 2,235 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Sounds like Bellend Bailey jumped the gun saying medical took place today. Link to post Share on other sites
Guffie 1,009 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Very happy with this signing. Learning from pep and ederson every day in training surely be good. USA #1 keeper, fits wilders style of play and an absolute unit. Get some strikers in, and cover players. Then I will start getting excited, can’t help but get the feeling something is getting built here. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
T-CIDER 627 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Really happy with our business so far. 2 more strikers and a LCB next, please Mr. Gibson 🙏 Link to post Share on other sites

And more than anything looking forward to shouting USA when Steffen makes a good save 6 Link to post Share on other sites
Whoppy 593 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) Great signing - didn't think Steffen would have been possible but I think he will do well with us. I'm happy. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I will admit I have only seen snippets from his time with Man City when he has played. Clearly my judgement is limited to not a lot of game time. He really did have a mare v Liverpool. He looked everything I felt on Lumley. He was slow reacting to their first goal, made a half hearted attempt from what I remember, the second was absolutely pathetic, and he showed far too much goal at the near post on the third. That save compilation made me giggle, only 2, possibly 3 were really good saves, the rest were routine, nothing out of the ordinary and he even did a Lumley v Posh tackle way out of his box. I am sure he will be an upgrade, but I hoped for better. I hoped for Iversen, but fear Darlow would have been better and I didn’t want him. Positives: Tall Sweeper Keeper Been under Pep International (albeit USA) Loan, so can send back after a year if he is poor or look to buy if he proves himself worthy. upgrade on Lumley in theory Negatives: Puncher rather than catcher Slow to React from what I’ve seen to date Pep clearly feels he needs a better number 2 I saw that Liverpool game and took the p*** out of my City supporting friend asking him if Steffen was Joe Lumley’s American cousin, he was not amused. I have just had a text from him a few minutes ago that reads: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I suspect I’m in for a torrid time at the pub on Friday 🤦🏻 Lets hope thats where the torrid times end.

"KM" 1,656 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) The Gazette and The Northern Echo are saying it’s not quite as close as initial reports were saying but we are working hard to get the deal done. Link to post Share on other sites

I mean he’s been capped for USA nearly 30 times. Joe Lumley isn’t in the same league. Link to post Share on other sites
