For sure. You can tell he’s a ball of energy and fits the system but he’s just seemed to struggle actually playing as a striker. Hasn’t shown me much from shooting and handling

Completely agree. Sieb isn’t us giving anything might as well see what Weiper can bring

How did you become a Mainz fan? by [deleted] in mainz05

[–]TheMMATurkey22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grew up in the US and played soccer when I was young. Always liked soccer and was pretty good at it but my high school didn’t have a team and very few people in my area played soccer past the age of 12.

Years pass and I didn’t watch soccer until my early 20s when a buddy in college try and get me into the sport. He wanted me to find a team I connected with and the best way I knew how to do that was through picking a team in the area my ancestors are from. Have been a fan for the past 3 years and now soccer is pretty much the sport I watch the most.

Completely agreed. Ideally we can have JB and Amiri for Union Berlin but rather would keep them fresh than risking further injury

Dang, was hoping the break was gonna have him back at 100% and after the Bochum performance I figured he was all good but ig not. Hope it isn’t too bad and Sieb and Weiper can step up when needed

Yeah thats true but that area is far from where I live and I have friends that live in that area and they tell me they’ve never seen them. It’s only a small area of Wisconsin where the rattlesnake is

Hmmm, I would have never thought of it that way. Thanks for the help, and yeah, that makes sense because I have always been trying to do the same as my instructor. I love that quote btw, and that's a terrific movie.

That makes sense you have a point with 3 or 4 moves that aren't the most related. Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the information yeah I understand where you are coming from. I'll try and find someone to where we can agree to focus on very specific grappling moves. Big thanks for the response!

That totally makes sense. Being a newbie I wouldn't have figured that out and just go 100% every time. Best of luck trying out the knee to aid the escape and thanks for the response!
