The Palace Fan 3,333 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 18 month deal. A fantastic defender in his prime. Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,151 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 4,932 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 He looks really thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy 12,376 Posted January 26, 2018 Moderator 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Batard 2,515 Posted January 26, 2018 Administrator Share Posted January 26, 2018 They’re building an impressive side, Ntep and Subotic are solid signings of quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,073 Posted January 26, 2018 Administrator 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. 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 1,770 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
