New BB!

[xyukihimex]

I've never posted anything before because technology hates me and i'm shy so this is probably gonna look really stupid, because i don't even have any pictures...

But after watching a really adorable interview i though we should add Lewis Holtby to our Mannschaft's bbs.

This is the link to yesterday's "Aktuelles Sportstudio" on ZDF.

They talk about the Mannschaft right at the end of the part "Bruchweg-Boys "Kaum zu realisieren".

Gosh, they were cute! I didn't expect I'd ever care for a club like Mainz 05, but these guys are just endearing. (and beat Bayern which is always a good thing IMHO)

"My (English) Dad accepted that I want to play for Germany instead of England - he wants me to win after all..." Lol!

I really hope Jogi Löw will call him to join the Mannschaft. He can be part of Team Tiny, he's just a tiny little bit taller than Lahm and Marin.

People who beat Bayern are always awesome! lol

I loved the "he wants me to win after all" part! But i still thought the part where he says "i have to admit that i fell in love right away the first time i sang the national anthem at a U-game and now with the honor of being U21 captain i'm sure that i want to play for germany"

don't think we have to worry about him going over to the dark side...

Go Team Tiny! You forgot Trochowski though, i think he's actually the shortest one...

[yessi_5]

They are! (although Bayern makes it harder and harder to hate them, with their great individual players and their amazing youth development programs)

I "aaw"-ed out loud when he said that part about falling in love with playing for Germany during the anthem.

Poor Jogi, another great midfielder in the making - So many to choose from... We need more strikers, damnit!

Right, Trochowski! He seems taller than the other two, just because of his figure, but you're right, he's apparently the smallest. Sascha Riether is quite tiny as well I think (although taller than the other three).

Most important message:
He wants to play for Germany rather than England.
"I have made up my mind and I would like to play for Germany," Holtby told Germany's ZDF television. "My father accepts that."
(and joking: "I want to play for Gemany because I want to win titles") :D

And he is a true Internet Junkie - own website, twitter, facebook - everything.

Just followed him on twitter - the account is not verified though, is it really his? It seems real, but with twitter you never know....

[chinra]

It's on his official homepage. I doubt he'd link a fake ;)

[th1rte3n]

it's real, both the facebook and twitter and everything.

HOLTBYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
breakout star.

Mainz boybond ftw

Looking forward to see him in the senior team hopefully. I hope Jogi will think about calling him up before England tries to?
Becaue germany has got a lot of wonderful talented players who are still fairly young as well.

[xyukihimex]

He said yesterday that he only wants to play for Germany so i don't think we have to worry about him in England :)

[th1rte3n]

that's awesssommmeee :)

cause I Don't understand german,so I was just watching the video to see the adorable Mainz boyband intro and the part where they try to kick the balls.
I kinda suspected they would bring that issue up. it's a relief to hear him say it on tv for himself...

but i always take what people say with a pinch of salt.

[noamjen]

Dorky goal celebration is dorky!!!!

[minimaxdadamax]

HOLTBY!!! <3 I love this kid. Hopefully he'll keep playing this great and gets called up to the senior squad sometime soon. When are our next friendlies? We've got so many talented young players that should get a chance.

I can't wait for him to come back to us and be awesome here <3 Magath better not do something stupid and let him go or something :/

[th1rte3n]

yes omg come back to schalke!!
although he looks so happy with his buddies in Mainz. but schurrle is heading to leverkusen next season, so he should go back to schalke!!!

[yessi_5]

When are our next friendlies?

Sweden-Germany on Nov 17th. Jogi already said that he was going to test some new talents at that match, I think.

[xyukihimex]

Oh i hope he finally calls up Benni and Mats, because that would be ♥
Also maybe Holtby (although i think he's probably busy with the U21) would be awesome...

[hey_larry]

lol hehe what an adorable kidd!

srsly though, with the amount of talent we've got on our hands, i'm not at all scared for the future of die mannschaft. :)

watching out for holtby. ;)
