CONFIRMED " STRIKER LEAVES CARDIFF CITY "

Mon Feb 01, 2021 5:12 pm

Forward Robert Glatzel has today joined Bundesliga side 1. FSV Mainz 05 on loan for the remainder of the 2020/21 campaign.

Glatzel has scored eleven goals in all competitions for the Bluebirds since joining from 1. FC Heidenheim in August 2019.

We'd like to wish Robert all the very best of luck while away from CCS.

FSV Mainz 05 will pay 70% of Glatzels wages :thumbright:

So Glatzel joined us from a second tier German side, didn’t perform at all well for City in general, and is now on loan to a Bundesliga top division team.

The mind boggles! Does this make sense?

Surely this means a striker is coming in?

Wasn’t actually a bad player, just struggled to adapt to the Brexit ball brand of football we play, particularly this season. Wouldn’t surprise me if he does well in the German top flight!

That's the difference between looking at the figures and looking at how he plays.

He's the most skilful striker we have at our club, but our style is to a target man.

Judge him on how he's played with the ball at his feet rather than how many starts or headers he's had and you'll see why Mainz have taken a punt on him.

Good luck and thanks to Robert Glatzel.He never moaned about not being picked and tried his best.Hard for a player coming from another country and being thrown straight into a mad division like the championship.Yet another case of a player becoming worse playing for city and our dinosaur style. :bluebird:

I agree - he's much maligned on here but in the right system he has something about him. Mainz play good football despite their lowly position and I think he will do well there.

Makes this deal even better and surely frees up money to sign a forward unless Vassell is close to fitness.

No we need to sign a forward now.

What’s your problem with him? He’s came here didn’t moan when he wasn’t playing when he did get the chance he at least showed he was trying also he cost 5.5m so 550k per goal (:

Watters must be out long term?

We have Moore, Harris and watters (not counting Vassell)

3 players for - normally - 1 striker role. Unless Mccarthy wants to play 442

Good luck Bobby and hope you do the business for Mainz. I think you could say about Bobby and Cardiff City is right player, wrong club.

Pity we cant stop "fans" from being wannabe managers!! Im glad he has gone to a team thatcan actually play the game on the floor.

But my biggest relief? Not reading your shit posts on him!

Again!! Please read the thread,you are(again!) In the minority. But you know better!

Remember Dalman saying we have been looking at Glatzel for 2 years before we signed him. In that sentence you can see he does not have a clue.

yes we could all see after half an hour he wasnt going to be a big strong target man winning headers and holding the ball up... its the other stuff...when we are in the final third and the ball is on the floor...mr skills did zero...if he had he would still be here or his amazing unappreciated skills would have been spotted by other clubs where they play perfect RGball who would have snapped up a bargain...a footballer that football does not suit :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5:
and yes a club in the relegation zone are taking a punt with no obligation which is less of a punt than we are taking on Williams...

Blah blah , obviously I do no better if you think he's anything other than a bog standard lower league striker.

A few positive good wishes comments mean jack shit

Read the comments on the games hes played in and get a better perspective. Hes not good enough end of story . 3 managers in a row are not wrong and stats do not lie.
