As a Bayern fan I feel attacked that this was on my timeline today.

Craig and this front office are not faultless, but if you think asking the face of your franchise to do what’s best for the franchise, while essentially on a lifetime contract is a bridge to far then i don’t know what to tell you. Be a leader, keep it in the clubhouse, do your job.

Think it’s a bit disingenuous to both sides this when the team showed their commitment to him by paying him. Unless it was in his contract, “you’re playing third no matter what,” pick up the glove if it’s what the team needs.

except they gave him a guaranteed $300+ million dollar deal so maybe a little bit more of, “anything for the team” should be in the cards, seeing as he’s not going anywhere.

In the lurch. There’s been a ton of articles written about this, how sasaki’s early posting has and will negatively affect other international players, give it a google.

I don’t think you read the above comment. Their money is committed in pencil until the 15th, so if they’re able to land him it’ll blow up their pool, if they don’t land him, they’ll get the guys they’ve committed to, in pencil.

In what world does club come before country?
