Five goals and 13 assists in Germany's second tier turned heads, and in May of 2008, the talented winger was nominated to Joachim Low's provisional 26-man squad for Euro 2008.Marin had a successful 2008-09 season at Gladbach, and after winning the Under-21 European Championship in the summer, earned a transfer to Werder Bremen. He spent three years at the Weserstadion, but during his time has not made the next step and instead has stagnated.There are many factors that have contributed to Marin's woes at Werder. In his first season, he was one of many attacking options at Werder, with the likes of Mesut Ozil and Aaron Hunt providing service. After Ozil's departure in 2010, Marin was pulled into a central playmaking role, a move that can only be regarded as an utter failure. He struggled to make an impact, and this season has only played a limited role, scoring just once and giving three assists in 18 games. Bremen coach Thomas Schaaf found his replacement last season in Mehmet Ekici, and Marin's time at Bremen was surely set to end with the current season.
n a central role at Werder, he rarely had room to dribble, and his deficiency in decision-making was highlighted. He is no Messi, but more of an Angel Di Maria: a player with great one-on-one skill, but one who often puts his head down and lacks the subtlety required in a central player.
At Chelsea, Marin will benefit from the open play that typifies the English game, and will relish the opportunity to move back to his natural role on the wing. He comes with plenty to prove, however, he will have to be far better at Stamford Bridge than he has been at Bremen, and one big question mark lies over his fitness. With all things considered, it is a very dangerous move for Marin, who could spend his best years on the bench.

From Chelsea's perspective, Marin's acquisition is a good one. The player had enormous potential when he was younger, and for a fee in the region of £5.5 million-£6.5m, it is a reasonable gamble.
