i'll never ever forget his miraculous chip at highbury when we won 4-2, a priceless priceless moment in the life of a charlton fan...in the good old days when we were mixing it with the big boys in the premiership
That's a shame. I don't think he ever really fulfilled his undoubted potential - he could have been world class if it wasn't for his tendnecy to go missing in games.
A real shame, had the ability only a tiny few have.
Shame he didn't have the world class attitude needing to take his ability to the very top. I'm convinced a dedicated Claus could of played for any club in the world.

Claus was probably the best passer of the ball the club's had, very good ball player.
Probably would've been suited to Spanish football.
We get so many of these right, when Kinsella went everyone went mental, retired a year later, same with Claus, seems like we knew more than we let on...
Kins didn't retire a year later - in fact he was still playing (for Walsall) first half of last season until we brought him back as a coach. Given half a chance, he'd still be playing, I bet...
One of the most naturally gifted footballers I've ever seen pull on the red shirt.
It's a shame he seemed to lack the application to make the most of the talent he was blessed with but reminded on many occasions just why it's known as the 'beautiful game'.

Good luck for the future Claus.

I thought the same. Suprised he never gave it a go.
Depressed when Friedel scored, but in 7th heaven moments later.
He's an absolute legend and I know that all the youth players really respect him, top bloke.
