I vaguely remember Dave Watson playing in Germany

No, not him - the older one.

Anyway, he wasn't there as long as I thought...

............................

He left Manchester City in the summer of 1979 for German Bundesliga side Werder Bremen. His time at Bremen was short as after making his debut in a 1?0 win over Bayer Uerdingen he was sent-off in his second match against 1860 M?nchen for "pushing" Hermann Bitz and was banned by the German FA for eight-weeks.[2] He was fined by his club and refused to travel to an away match against FC Schalke 04 because of an injury before turning up to play for England.[2]

Unsurprisingly he was back in England by October with Southampton paying ?200,000.
