Oh people of Wolfsburg – you lucky, lucky people!
Just as an aside, after a summer of chasing the likes of Edin Dzeko and Alvaro Morata, here’s what Wolfsburg coach Dieter Hecking told Kicker while unveiling Bendtner:
“We dared to touch the top shelf of players. It’s empty now though, so we need to look a bit further down.”
Oucharoonies!
