“I’ll always try to direct the guys in front of me – I’ll help them to help me.
“If you had told me seven years ago when I was in the third division of Germany that, one day, I would be playing in the Premier League, I would have probably knocked you down”. He said
Brentford manager, Thomas Frank also had this to say:
“He’s a very good shot-stopper and comfortable with the ball at his feet. His distribution is very impressive and we are happy to have him in our team”
