I think with things like possesion and positioning - having fullbacks that can take corners is a great asset because it kind of Uses the most widest player anyway.

I can imagine Shaw and Clauss for example being our corner takers from either side.

His crosses seem to have a bit of “air” to them too.

He knows how to ping balls
 


This video was the best I could see.

Some videos don’t show his ability very well
 
Seems a United fan too this guy

First time visiting this thread. Surprised to see so many hating on Clauss. He is a bit older than I'd like, but he just had a great season with Lens, probably only Fofana performed better for them. Had he been 5 years younger, he would have been an obvious choice to go for. Considering their ages, I would probably still prefer Jeremie Frimpong but for £7m it's hard to say no. Only thing I will say is that I don't think I've ever really seen him in a back 4 since Lens usually play a 3-4-1-2. I think he would suit what ETH expects from his full backs in attack. Whether he could be more suspect defensively in a back 4, I'm not too sure.
 
Feels like a player ETH scouted with Ajax well is worth a gamble at that price Liverpool once signed late bloomer Robertson for 8 million and nobody expected him to be this good.
 
Gives me Dario Srna vibes, who himself aged very gracefully. Clauss could give us a solid 3 years.
 
The guy who have him as his secret Santa is one hell of a lucky chap indeed.

It literally doesn't though, given we've become Ajax UK. Apart from this one.

Well if we become a team that plays with the same principle and application as Ajax, with the quality of players within our reach we'll be champions league contenders.
 
I’d much rather we went for Dumfries or even better but less likely, Hakimi!

What a shocker. We didnt want the 29 year old from the French league

It's not the age to be honest, he's a wing back and we still haven't sold Wan Bissaka. I don't see us signing a RB until his future is sorted.

Ten Hag just like previous managers will want some players he’s familiar with and who understands his methods. He’s had a close look at Malacia seen as though his teams have played against him many times… that’s what you call personal scouting.

There was 0 chance we're signing a 29 year old from France regardless
