Nah, Raggett - we talked it up on the other thread not 20 minutes ago <laugh>
Looking at other "more reliable than average" twitter accounts, Mick Dennis reckons another CB is signing is basically wrapped up - we could be right!
 
Stiepermann has just been confirmed by the official twitter account.
 
Farke "Marco is an all-rounder and a creative guy. He started his career as a number ten but the last season played as a holding midfielder and in the left full-back position a lot. He will give us many options and is at a good age so that will help us to be more flexible"

In the video on twitter, he describes himself as a flexible midfield player with a good left food, a good shot and (he hopes) a good pass. He names assists as his strength.

Stipermann is apparently 6ft2, and Farke expects him to be an asset at set pieces too. Wes' neck must be aching from looking up at his team-mates all the time!

From the sounds and looks of him, He could be a really good signing. He's got all the attributes to be an effective attacking Midfielder. Doing some work at holding midfield would make him a more rounded player. Set-pieces, finishing, and creativity are his key points.

Sounds like an excellent signing and quite a couple. I'm sure I read somewhere just a couple of days ago that he was staying in Germany.
I'm certainly looking forward to seeing the game against Sunderland.
 
Given Stipermann can apparently cover LB, I wonder if we might see Lewis or Toffolo loaned out now? I can't see both of them getting significant minutes here if they're potentially 3rd and 4th choice.
 
This from Read Norwich 'four things we learnt on Saturday' piece.
I tend to agree.

MARTIN STILL ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH
Now before we get into this, the own goal was unfortunate and by no means is the basis for this point.
Martin was poor against Fulham. Time and again he had to get bailed out by Zimmermann – who was excellent.
The Scottish international has a horrible habit of just standing off the forward and allowing him to shoot, which almost led to Floyd Ayite scoring a couple of times if not for the post and a poor shot.

Wildschut and Martin both struggled badly in defence, with Fulham getting a lot of joys down the flank.
Hopefully Norwich can add another central defender before the window closes to take his place. If not, Timm Klose’s return from injury cannot come soon enough.

Martin is an excellent person to have off the pitch and around the club, but he isn’t the man to be starting every game if we have ambitions to progress as a club.
