Red Skin Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think when the big German plays he is magnificent. Reckon he deserved a chant. My German references are pretty scant but how about this to the tune of 99 Red Balloons? Simple and uses a bit (or alot) of German to make the big fella feel at home and know he is appreciated... Thir-ty One, Jens He-gel-er, He is effing wun-der-bar. Thir-ty One, Jens He-gel-er, He is effing wun-der-bar...(repeat) Or if we want to go all out German... Ein-und-Drei-zig, He-gel-er, Er ist Ver-dammt wun-der-bar. Ein und Drei-zig, He-gel-er, Er ist Ver-dammt wun-der-bar....(repeat) Bet we'd be the only club with a German chant and a change from the usual two world wars and one world cup nonsense. Though maybe Huddersfield have beaten us to it with all the Germans they have? For the young uns... 99 Red Balloons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudski Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Jens....most underrated player at the Club imo...love watching him play. Does everything with a languid style and composure, and still has time on the ball. And covers ground deceptively quickly...Sign of a good player.

How many times do teams not sign players of ability only to then try to sign them for 2/3/4 times the price one year later when they finally realise how good they are. Poor scouting and poor ability to judge a players ability to play at a certain level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first saw Patrick Viera 'live' I couldn't believe how he exploded into life whenever the ball came within 10 yards of him....lightning quick and sharp despite jogging slowly the rest of the time. It totally changed my opinion of him, he didn't waste or use energy until he needed it, and then he was simply world class....Jens has similar traits, hope he progresses to be half the player!

Dont get me wrong, I am a fan of his when he is played in the correct positions that utilise his strength. However, one reason he got criticism was due to his languid display against Fulham at home. I know the team was poor but he strolled around miles off the pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If JB was as good a LB as you are making out, then other Clubs apart from Birmingham would be making offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, fair play, Fulham at home was an incredibly low point of last season....not many City players emerged with any credit, and Jens' natural 'relaxed' style made him look worse than he actually is, if that makes sense?!
