Fußball-Bundesliga

[Bundesbiers]

I wouldnt overvalue todays result, Bundesbiers. At the end it was nothing but a friendly.
I assume that most Dortmund players had more training time because many Bayern players just returned a week ago.
Btw- looks like Martinez has a torn ACL, his season might be over ?

Well there's nothing else to talk about today... had to bring up something. Would you prefer we talk about RedBull?

Yeah, lets talk about Red Bull
They are already complaining and wonder why people dont like them. If they will ever be promoted to 1. Bundesliga a large number of policemen will be needed for every game.
But indeed not much happened yesterday.
Klose retired from our National team as you certainly know and Hamburg signed a good left-back from Augsburg what makes me even more optimistic for the new season though our best striker is still injured.
Looking forward to the DFB Cup, I wonder how many 1.Bundesliga teams will be eliminated after the first round.
Mainz at Chemnitz, Dortmund at Kickers Stuttgart, Schalke at Dresden or HSV at Cottbus could be tough.

I'm all in for SC Paderborn... at least the first round anyways.

Are you being sarcastic? Dortmund, Schalke and HSV to lose? I'd be surprised to see that happen.

Na, that wont happen Croak but these are games where I predict that at least one of them could be eliminated.
And especially HSV is one of the top candidates for losing in the first round, its more or less a tradition, Geislingen, Karlsruhe, Paderborn.....

OMG, dont remind me of the Paderborn game.

But they need to beat RedBull... and then Paderborn can go away.

Wow, thats tough....hmmm..... the first one....Manuel Neuer ?
But who is this boy with the Brazilian shirt ? Face looks familiar but I dont know who it is....
I have no clue who these boys are on No 3 and 5. Third might be Thomas Muller....still thinking about the boy with the Gladbach shirt, familiar face as well but who is it.....

 

[Croak]

Is the fourth one a young Schweinsteiger? Or maybe Reus?

 

[Croak]

Looks like Pep put the Reus rumors to rest. He said we already have 8 strikers and that's too many. What surprised me in his comments was that he wasn't going to dip into the transfer market any more this transfer season. He said he's happy with the team he has. So what about filling the gap left by the loss of Martinez? Does this mean Badstuber is looking really good after a 2 year absence?

 

[PackerFan71]

Ohh a bit tougher than i thought, the then blonde hair on the first is a red Herring it is in fact the Mighty Matts Hummels! The Brazillian Looking gear on number two was a slight giveaway, its Mario Gomez. Number three is Thomas Muller good spot Nessie. Lewis Holtby is wearing the Gladbach shirt. Per Mertersacker of the **** is enjoying a read of his book in the last pic.

DW had a good take on the game. http://www.dw.de/relax-bayern-fans-its-just-the-supercup/a-17853186 But I'm not sure I like the switch to 3-4-3. I liked Jupp's 4-2-3-1.

Mats Hummels with blonde hair..... No wonder that I did not have a clue.
And no chance for me to identify the boy with the Gladbach shirt as Lewis Holtby, thats a tough one
And Per Mertesacker on the last picture ? I had no idea !
Btw - just kicked him out of my EPL Fantasy team because he is injured

He looks very good Croak and he deserves it to be back on the pitch after two years of injuries.
And I'm saying this though he plays for Bayern. I like Badstuber, he is a nice guy.

There is no way i would have got Gomez, the last two for me could have been Schweinsteiger.

Calum Chambers will fill Mertesackers spot... so they say. A good bargain at 4.5m for a couple of weeks.

 

[Bundesbiers]

Stephan Kiessling had 5 goals today in their DFB Pokal matchup.

Yepp ! And do I need to quote myself ?

Mainz at Chemnitz, Dortmund at Kickers Stuttgart, Schalke at Dresden or HSV at Cottbus could be tough.

Chemnitz against Mainz 4-4 at the moment, 108 minutes played

Edit: 119th minute, 5-4 Karl-Marx-Stadt (Chemnitz)
Edit2: 122th minute: 5-5, penalty shootout

 

[Bundesbiers]

5:5..... OMG I just saw that goal.

That was effing spectacular.

 

[Bundesbiers]

Here comes the PK's for Chemnitz - Mainz finish.

 

[mhnessie]

And peng.......Mainz is out of the race

 

[Bundesbiers]

Chemnitz wins 5:4 on penalties... wow... what a game.

 

[I asked LT to delete my acct]

And peng.......Mainz is out of the race

Is that remark absolutely necessary ???

 

[Croak]

Schweinsteiger is still out for tomorrow's cup match because of those stupid friendies.
