I wonder if they promised him and his wife Baumjohann's apartment at Circular Quay as a sweetener?

I would have thought that "Nutrality" is the diplomatic posture of a state governed by Donald Trump  or someone similarly nuts..

Just watched his 55 minutes for Hannover on the weekend . Played as the deeper of 2 defensive mids in front of a back 3 .  Good skills very comfortable on the ball  some good hard tackles and moved the ball forward quickly . Maybe slowing down a bit at 32 got dispossessed a couple of times but with the drop down in level should be very solid for us  .You never know how the Europeans will  cope with summer football but I like the look of him .

Then there's Jean-Jacques Rousseau who used to play left wing for the Old Boys.

On the bright side I don't think it can get any worse.

Haha!

OK, getting kind of back on topic.  Who is the greatest Swiss footballer to have played in Australia?

In the A-League, Stephan Keller.

Overall, probably Granit Xhaka when he came here with Arsenal.

and got kicked by Jacob Melling which was my favourite bit in the game
