  1. Jude Bellingham | Borussia Dortmund player...

    I feel players like Modric and Kroos are the complete wrong type to compare him to. Bellingham goes more towards CMs/AMs like Lampard, the young Ballack or even someone like Matthäus. All players with a certain dynamism and drive towards the goal. Players you'd describe as "box to box" player in...
  2. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    He really isn't but it won't matter because he is simply too good which is why Guardiola didn't have a problem in getting him. He is not the "perfect" player Guardiola would imagine in theory but he can still recognise his exceptional quality.
  3. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    He isn't even playing well for his own standards but he still scores goals, even in the "super awesome best in the world" EPL. Going to be interesting to see what he can do if things really click between him and everyone else.
  4. German Football 22/23 | 2. Bundesliga returns | Hamburg vs Schalke 20:30 |

    Just like I wrote before the season started, it is always the same pattern. Dortmund and Leverkusen get vastly overrated based on "potential" while at the same time being overly critical about our squad. Süle also showing why our leadership wasn't convinced by him. The way he "defends" for the...
  5. German Football 22/23 | 2. Bundesliga returns | Hamburg vs Schalke 20:30 |

    I mean so far it is basically a continuation of Rose's football, bad overall play but getting a lot of point from it. The noteworthy part is that Dortmund is doing it without Haaland.

    Such suggestions don't require a scouting team, just internet access...
  7. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Good start but to be fair it's just the EPL so far.

    The "problem" with Süle has always been that he often just doesn't use his physical gifts properly. Too many times he just strolls around the field and is mentally(!) slow because he simply doesn't anticipate situations. In that area he is the opposite of a (younger) Hummels, a player who was...
  9. German Football 22/23 | 2. Bundesliga returns | Hamburg vs Schalke 20:30 |

    Even if you look just at the balance of the current transfer period our net spent isn't that high (De Ligt included): In: De Ligt ~80m Mane ~32 Gravenberch ~19m Mazraoui 0 Total in: 131m € Out: Lewandowski 45m Roca ~12m Richards ~8,5 Mai ~1,6 Total out: 67,1 € Total net spent: ~63,9m €...

    I see too many people that act like Mazraoui is a nailed on starter. I do rate him but Pavard is no scrub, not to mention that Mazraoui has had quite a few injuries in the last few years. So there is really no reason to sell Pavard, we would lose a very flexible player that might even be a...
  11. German Football 22/23 | 2. Bundesliga returns | Hamburg vs Schalke 20:30 |

    Are you also going to use Lewandowski's underwhelming NT tournament record to question his quality? I mean you argument here is getting kinda ridiculous. You are dismissing players just because they might not be absolute generational players and reminds me of people who dismissed Schweinsteiger...
  12. German Football 22/23 | 2. Bundesliga returns | Hamburg vs Schalke 20:30 |

    You talk again about individual players instead of the overall team. People could also have said that Schweinsteiger, Mandzukic and co. are a level below Beckenbauer, Gerd Müller etc. I am not going to argue that any of Gnabry and so on are at the level of Ribery/Robben, there is a reason why I...
  13. German Football 22/23 | 2. Bundesliga returns | Hamburg vs Schalke 20:30 |

    We lost two generational wingers in Ribery and Robben, not to mention Lahm, Boateng, Alaba etc., and are still fine and the same will be true after Lewandowski. That doesn't mean we will never have a bad season, some day the year will come in which we won't win the league, but I don't think that...
  14. Konrad Laimer

    We lost Alaba and Boateng for free last season and Tolisso and Süle for free this season. Aren't we allowed to have free transfers? Though it really is funny to see such reactions for a player like Laimer, someone most Bayern fans wouldn't really be excited about even for free (for the record, I...
  15. German Football 21/22 | Gladbach sign Farke

    Our u19 is basically our u17/u18 and the "real" u19 is our 2nd team who already has to play against grown ups. I mean we had someone like Aydin who was just 16 years old already play with the 2nd team. So our best talents play just half a year or a year for the u19, sometimes they basically even...
