Just watched some youtube videos on him. He looks bloody awesome. very good at shooting and scores Plenty, especially free kicks over the wall. Technically looks excellent and can dribble and tackle. Bayern must have some shit hot midfielders to let him go out on loan.

Hopefully has the nerve to pull rank on free kicks with Bruno & Rashford but that remains to be seen
 
Should have included a buy option. What if he puts up Thriller era MJ type performances while he's here?
 
I see him not tracking back just as often as Pogba, the only difference is now we have Casemiro to mop up and Lisandro to engage the attackers, rather than playing McTom, Fred or Matic as our DMs... And thats a substantial change in quality

Who Sabitzer? Not tracking back? Nah he'll do that just fine. Also he won't be gassed after 30 mins like Pogba
 
Dominated us.

I remember he had an absolute horrorshow when we beat them 5-0. Here the highlights of the game. 3rd goal was him losing the ball with a heavy touch, 4th goal a penalty conceded by him (unfortunately for the 2nd goal them losing the ball isn't in the video but if i remember correctly, it was him). If this would be one out of McFred he would be ripped apart.

To be fair, when they beat us 3-2 he had a very good game and a good assist.

Other than this game: Like him as a player, has a good engine. For me not even close to as good as Eriksen, but for a replacement on the deadline day still a very good move.
 
Nice deal for both clubs. We get a reliable player, Bayern gets Sabitzer marketing campaign to sell him in summer for £50 million to Newcastle, Chelsea or us.
 


Amrabat next?

Actually all sorts of names going round.. Daichi Kamada of Eintracht Frankfurt, Houssem Aouar...
 

On paper, sounds like a better fit for the Eriksen role than Eriksen.. Eriksen wasnt playing as a 10.
I know he was very highly rated.. hope he gets his form back.. could be a shrewd addition

SSN ticker says "loan with an option to buy" - didn't think the purchase option was negotiated?
