I wouldn't say that, ter Stegen is a pretty easy target so it shouldn't be too much of a hassle getting him here. We might just as well see both ter Stegen and Reina at Barça next season.

Mate its Zubi we are talking about. The guy who didnt get Vertonghen when Frank De Boer practically was pimping him to Barca. The guy with the Thiago Silva or or no else policy when everyone and his mother knew we needed a CB. Dont be surprised if the policy is Reina+ (Courtois or no one else)

Don't be so pessimistic :p

Although I understand you as Zubi's performance in transfer business has been shit to say at least.

Courtois has the best defence in the world in front of him, while Ter Stegen has a shit defence in front of him.

Wrong.

Martin Stranzl is one of the best center backs of the Bundesliga and Alvaro Dominguez(now Roel Browers thanks to Dominguez injury) is pretty solid as well.
Even our full backs are solid and hardly the reason for those goals.
The problem has been counter attacks by opposing teams which forced quite some of those goals we conceeded.

All things considered, ter Stegen's been pretty good this season even though he's already conceeded 13 goals in 8 matches.

According to @SiqueRodriguez Ter Stegen will cost only €8m plus €2m in add-ons.

S Rodriguez works for Cadena SER.

Gladbach fans would be furious if that's all the club gets for ter Stegen.
Though, his contract will be up in 2015, which would limit the club in negotiations.

.

It depends on whether ter Stegen only wants to move to Barcelona or is ready to move to another club as they're in a weak position. If they dont accept an offer around that then they could lose him for free next year after.

I agree that it would be little for a player with Stegen's talent in this inflated market. Its a bargain if true!

If they get furious it's because their expectations are too high

ter Stegen

- is in his last year of contract by then
- is only 21 yo, no one knows whether he can keep his level or not, become better or worse: aka gamble. On top of that, no one knows whether he can deal with the pressure in Barcelona : aka gamble
- never played abroad and needs to be acclimatized first which costs time and time is money
- is not set in the NT
- has next to no international experience on club level, and the experience he had was kinda unfortunate

10 million is a fair price, 12 million tops.

Ter Stegen: "Could I join Barça? Don't know, speculation is the task of the press. Has there been contact? No one knows... (smiles)" [sky] :lol:

When i read this interview in german, it sounded kinda different. But I think too that he'll join us.

Him + Reina as a second goal keeper would be great I think...

If the official sky twitter posted this its pretty much done. There will be some negotiations but his wage demands should be well within our budget. The price is fair as others have explained before, it sucks for Gladbach but there are too many good keepers around especially in Germany right now, they cant expect too much for a 21 year old.

Yep, if Gladbach gets 10 mil there are more than enough keepers available. Zieler has a 7 mil buyout clause and guys like Trapp, Baumann, Mielitz etc should be within reach. If all else fails, they still have Blaswich in the B squad who's quite decent too. If they can't find a decent keeper in Germany then all hope is lost.
