Bremen says good bye to the Foals.

Where is the dislike button?

 

[mhnessie]

Right now Bayern is quite vulnerable. They look beat up and tired. They're missing 7 starters. They were kind of dragging at the Alliance today. Hannover could knock them off this weekend. Meanwhile, HSV gets them fresh off of the winter break.

So ein Scheiss ! I'd rather play them later in the second half of the season.....

 

[mhnessie]

German media says Bayern has agreed on terms with Carlo Ancelotti. Bye bye Pep !
Hope he knows that weather in UK is worse than in South Germany.

Yeah seems to be a pretty strong rumor, not just silly season stuff.

Should be interesting

 

[Bundesbiers]

Carlo Ancelotti??? Dude couldn't coach a team with a 876.678.987.456,00€ payroll

 

[Croak]

Oi vey. We've come a long way from Jupp.

 

[Itkovian]

Muller, Martinez, and Boateng have all extended their contracts to 2021, and Alonso adds a year to 2017!

Merry Christmas FCB!

 

[Croak]

There were some amazing ricocheting shots that just wouldn't go into the net in the first half of the Bayern match. Hannover's goalie made some spectacular stops as well.

 

[Bundesbiers]

FC Köln!!! Geißbock!

 

[Itkovian]

Way to go Koln!

 

[Itkovian]

Wow, I'm gonna have to watch those last 10 minutes of the Koln game later

 

[Croak]

HUGE shoutout of thanks to Köln. Thanks for helping our cause.

 

[Croak]

Now if Stuttgart can win, I'll take it as a Christmas present from the Bundesliga. And Mainz as well!

 

[Croak]

Stuttgart!

 

[Croak]

Olay, olay olay olay, olay, olay, Mainz! Mainz! Mainz!

 

[Itkovian]

Rumors were all true, Pep out ancelotti in

Unfortunate, but expected. Pep is like a rolling stone. (I still miss Jupp. )

Ahem. This from an article in 4-4-2

"In that sense it is a match made in managerial heaven. The Uli Hoeness debacle aside, super-club Bayern pride themselves on maintaining the highest standards of commercial and administrative best-practice.

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and his fellow board members will not cause trouble for Ancelotti and in turn the new coach can be trusted to ensure it is business as usual on the pitch. "

ACH, Mainz. You're killing me!

 

[mhnessie]

ACH, Mainz. You're killing me!

How can a mediocre team like Hertha having such a run, I can't believe it.
However, they are very efficient at the moment, they seem to convert every chance they have.
But I wonder if they can keep up playing like this in the second half of the season.
Really wish HSV would be as efficient as Hertha although I can't complain compared to last season....

Ancelotti is a gentleman of the highest quality, when at CFC his team won the record for goals scored in Premiership history. He was foolishly let go after coming second the year after winning the Premiership. However it remains to be seen how well he will adapt to German football.

You mean last 2 seasons.

 

[Itkovian]

Most injuries in bundesliga this season....

Schalke
Hertha Berlin
Bayern Munich

Kind of crazy that all 3 teams are in the upper end of the table even so.
