  1. The best footballing brothers

    Hoeneß, Rummenigge, Förster, Allofs, Walter Germany had some iconic footballing brothers.
  2. Let's all laugh at Germany

    the Dutch? As a German I'd say our main rivals are the Italians.
  3. Boycott The Qatar World Cup?

    Seems like Germany is the only country that's really boycotting the WC. Ratings are at historical lows and it's not even close either. Yesterday was - by a country mile - the least watched German game at at WC or Euro and other games aren't getting ratings either. For comparison: the game with...
  4. German Football 21/22 | Gladbach sign Farke

    Rules say the ref can't continue the game until the substitutions are done. When there are 12 men on the pitch then the ref messed up because he's the one that has to make sure that 1 player leaves the pitch and 1 player gets on. That's literally his job.
  5. Random goalkeepers you remember

    Surprised that nobody mentioned Zdravko Zdravkov yet :lol:
  6. Pronunciation of footballers' names

    I'm not allowed to post links so ... search for "is your cat called Kevin?" on Youtube, in the very beginning de Bruyne is pronouncing his name. about that whole pronunciation thing: as a German I don't mind foreigners pronouncing German names wrong. Usually it's much worse when they try to...
  7. Pronunciation of footballers' names

    It's Oop-ah-meh-cah-noh btw: foreign commentators butcher like 99% of German names. Even simple ones like Lahm, Müller or Kroos ... impossible to be pronounced right :D
  8. Bayern Munich’s public pursuit of other team’s players...

    I wonder if you were that mad when Klopp talked about "not wanting to end the speculations about Thiago" well before the signing being official :angel: There were pictures in the papers of Upamecano's agent meeting with Salihamidzic and Upa's agent himself said on one of Germany's biggest...
  9. Players who instantly lifted a team upon arrival

    Effenberg in his 2nd Bayern stint. Thanks to him they became one of the best teams in Europe for the next 3-4 years, reached the CL final twice and won it in 2001.
  10. Humiliating Defeats aka Totally Destroyed

    Bayern regularly destroy Dortmund at home: 19/20: 4-0 18/19: 5-0 17/18: 6-0 16/17: 4-1 15/16: 5-1 :lol: Hamburg is even worse in away games against Bayern, they should just stay home next time. 17/18: 8-0 16/17: 6-0 15/16: 5-0 14/15: 8-0 12/13: 9-2 :houllier:
  11. Transfer Tweets - 2019/20 | Check the OP for blacklisted sources before posting

    Considering Bayern's past sales they likely won't demand much more than what they paid for him, so around 40m€ would be my guess (unless he really shines for France at the Euros).
  12. Players that have turned their career around from a decline

    Stefan Effenberg Effenberg's star rose in the late 80s, early 90s, then he went from Bayern to Fiorentina and was relegated in the 2nd season there (a team that had not only Effenberg but also Batistuta and Brian Laudrup), he was nowhere close to his performances in previous years. The icing on...
  13. Best National XI since you’ve started watching football

    That's a good one, I'd probably take out Littbarski for Schuster though.
  14. Should UEFA introduce a salary cap?

    Just saw the Bayern presser with Hernandez and there was also talk about a salary cap. Rummenigge (and he has to know) said that's it's impossible to introduce because of European laws. When he was ECA-chief they had people in Brussels several times put were always told that European laws won't...
  15. Sebastien Haller / signed for West Ham

    He's a poor man's Lukaku and we're trying to sell Lukaku, that's all you need to know.
