The Palace Fan 3,180 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 18 month deal. A fantastic defender in his prime. Good luck to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,050 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Still only 29 years old, if he can find his old form then he could be a very good signing for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 4,569 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 He looks really thin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 11,236 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Great defender and all that, but most importantly one of the best characters I've ever witnessed off-pitch. Huge loss for Dortmund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batard 2,502 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 They’re building an impressive side, Ntep and Subotic are solid signings of quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan 16,918 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 what happened to Subotic at Dortmund? Thought he was a mainstay there. Remember him and Hummels being rocks at the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember him and Hummels being rocks at the back. Under Klopp, yes. The other coaches didn't seem to rate him that highly, unfortunately. Then he had some injury problems, was loaned out to Köln and never found his way back in. When he occasionally played, he was still rock solid.

Inverted 1,734 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I think he and Hummels were an amazing combination in terms of stylistic chemistry, although the reputation of Hummels as the luxury sweeper and Subotic as the rough, stopper-type is obviously over-simplistic. Sokratis was a lot better than expected I think, and perhaps offers similar things to Subotic but with more pace and physical presence, and they maybe aren't an ideal combination, with Toprak or Bartra being more naturally balanced partners for Sokratis. He's an amazing guy and I hope AS can have some success in the next couple of seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
