A very, very long bow there. Broich has 80+ appearances in the Bundesliga plus 70+ in 2. Bundesliga. Admittedly he came here older, but by the time he was Steinman's age he was a Bundesliga starter and on the verge of making the German national team.
Yeah a long bow. But around Steinman's age (24-26) Broich wasn't going great (injury, struggling with motivation and high expectations) and when on to have 2 seasons in Bundesliga 2 with Köln.
It was only really with Ange Pot, and more laidback Aussie scene that he found his niche.
It Steinman came to NZ, and became half the player Broich was that would be great.
