Don't get me wrong, Bundesliga 2 is s bit shite but he'd been getting games for a while I thought.Not sure if he had played as much after January. Just a hazy recollection of someone telling me something along those lines though rather than fact. As long as the guy is getting regular games at a decent level it isn't a bad move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, just figured he'd be more likely to progress technically in Germany than in England. I mean the style of play over the border is similar enough that he'd be more in his comfort zone as a centre back coming recently from top of Scottish football into English championship. Over there he'd be more likely to learn a different style but if they don't fancy him then fair fucks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt any of us would have seen him having the career he has had so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 It turns out Mendy has been concussed since the Cowdenbeath friendly. I'm going to wildly clutch at straws and convince myself that's the reason he's been hopeless in every game he's played since then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the big man is on the mend and can get back to showing us he's a good player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIT THE CHANNEL Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 JMcG saying into September for Vaughan and Dingwall and both doing great. You would think that means the Peterhead at Home game on the 14th will be the target for first team game time. That means they will have missed 5 league games, which all in all isn’t a huge disaster if they stay fit from then on. If we can grind out some more wins in the next 4 games until they are back it will be a great start with those two to push us on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
