Position
[edit]Is he not a holding midfielder? I'll admit I've only seen him play in the recent games shown on the tele, the LC SF v Hibs and the SC QF v Motherwell, but on both ocassions he has played in midfield. Caledonian Place 05:55, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- Could be. Saints' profile has him as a defender, however (though with their spelling, it could just be a coincidence the letters came together that way). I haven't followed the injury situations, but if they've been short of midfielders, that would explain why he's playing higher up. - Dudesleeper · Talk 06:07, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
German Nationality
[edit]Despite being born in Germany, is Mensing not a British passport holder?
- There was much editwarring on the Accies article over his nationality, with no evidence provided by either side. Soccerbase offers no info in his nationality field: playerhistory.com says both German and English. Although a passport is a matter of public record, it is not easily verified, and would only prove that he is of the UK, not that he is English. Evidence? Kevin McE (talk) 08:01, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
- The Times describes him as "An Englishman who was born in Germany" - which is exactly what he is. GiantSnowman 21:40, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
