Welcome to the club Philip Degen.

So, we've got our 1st new addition to the club in the summer transfer market. Swiss right-back Philip Degen will sign for us on July 1.
To be honest, I've never ever heard of this guy and amidst the names of other players linked to the club right now, like Barry, Dossena, Bentley; Degen didn't really catch the attention. So, when I saw the news on .tv this afternoon, I was like "whatever la."
AND also because they use this picture.
Which in fact, he looks
HOTTER than that, wayyy hotter. Did a search on him after Pei Ru left a shoutout at my cbox and found this.
!!!!
Another sign why the people at .tv needs to work harder, no? A hotter picture at
Ru's blog lol.
That aside, since he's a free transfer and all, there's nothing much for us to lose I guess, whichever way he turns out. Great players like Danny and Martin cost us 5 and 6 mil respectively, and Degen is FREE. So, let's give the lad a chance and see what he can do. Words are that he's pretty shite at Borussia though. But hey, Voronin used to be great with his old club didn't he?
That said, I only hope that,
1) he DOES NOT turn out like Voronin being a free transfer also. (please be able to stand on your feet Mr. Degen)
2) this is not an indicator of Rafa's spending power this summer. Some quarters are saying that Rafa is forced to settle for his 2nd choice again.
Welcome to the club Dagen!
P.S. Is it only me or our defenders are really all pretty boys? I mean we've got Skrtel(Slovakian Wentworth Miller he's so called!), Finnan(Irish Matt Damon), Alvie, Fabio and of course Danny Agger! Lol we are going back to the Jamie Redknapp era eh?
P.S again, since I'm doing welcome entry, might as well do this too.
