All the negativity in this thread has ruined this signing for me, not even excited. You bastards.

Great price for someone who has to prove a lot here.
Iām just so excited about the fact that weāre actually signing a relatively famous keeper from Germany!
Our keeper policy since Lehmann left in 2008 has been fucking atrocious so the idea of signing a German keeper who was even just hyped a few years ago is so exciting.
I feel so pathetic haha

I suppose it makes a change that weāve actually gone out and addressed a problem area with like, an actual signing. I mean, weāve gone out and done the obvious thing that was expected. Thatās refreshing at least.

But isnāt d a t sound at the end of a word? Iāve checked pronunciation sites and they all say āBearnt Lee-nohā.
Bwan bwan budafada smelkypoo fantasbaring kikki-pa-daā¦
or āBobā
Not decided yetā¦
Have you any examples where the d is pronounced as t ? 
The concept of value hasnāt changed but what constitutes value obviously does change with more general price inflation. Young CBs who decent-but-not-special prospects are regularly going for 30-40m these days when bought by English clubs and many of them have struggled (Mustafi, Rudiger, Lindelof, Sanchez, etc). Higher rated CBs like Van Dijk (75m) and Laporte (57m) are crazy expensive. I donāt say how one can say that 16m (and likely pretty cheap wages for a veteran player) for a CB who walks into our backline and improves us for 2-3 years is clearly bad value.
Nope. 
But weāll find out how he says it during the inevitable āforeigner signs for Arsenal, so ask him in his first 20 interviews how his name is pronouncedā clips.
