Bundesliga 2017/18

We've done a complete turnaround in style. Last season 'hit it long to Cordoba' was our only strategy and this game was Gaal-tastic possession football at it's finest. At least in the first half we created a number of chances and bad finishing was our only flaw, but in the second we were really poor. Duly conceded after giving the ball away with a foul throw :rolleyes:
 
So it seems like Müller has indeed ruptured his ACL with his botched goal celebration. Probably wishes he wouldn't have turned down that contract extention offer now. Poor lad.
 
Glad for Tedesco and Schalke..wanna see them doing good and I m more convinced than ever that Tedesco is the right man for Schalke.

Leverkusen played some nice football, so there is also hope they wont fall apart this time and Herrlich not as useless as some thought he would be.

Always good seeing Hamburg win, as I want them to fulfill their potential to make the BL more attractive. The Müller celebration injury is a tragedy.

Hoffenheim deserved to win and IMO its the Nagelsmann farewell tour to Munich next summer.

Bayern away against Leipzig, what a game.

Means two real tough weeks end of October/start of November

midweek Leipzig away Cup
weekend Leipzig home league
midweek CL (4th match day - usually 3rd and 4th match day are against teams from pot 3 and Napoli, Liverpool, Spurs, Roma etc. are in that...)
weekend Dortmund away league
 
Well Leipzig will be in a similar situation:

14. 10. Dortmund (away)
17./18.10 CL
21.10. Stuttgart (home)
24./25.10 DFB-Pokal Bayern (home)
28.10. Bayern (away)
31. 10. CL

Hertha vs. Köln is also an interesting matchup since both will be playing EL games and are not used to it.
 


:lol: ffs. The ref referred the incident to the VAR and Papdopulous got a yellow card. Should have been sent off to be honest. Shameful.
 
So this is Coulogne. They don't look good at all.

Last season they could be a bitch to play against at times. They took points off of all the top 4 teams. But they were mainly a defensive team and not that threatening going forward - even with Modeste, who literally scored half their goals.
I haven't seen much of them this season, but I'd be surprised if they accomplish much in the EL, especially against an experienced team like Arsenal.
 
Did anyone just see Papadapalopos

It was one of the worst I've seen. Papadopulous maintained eye contact with the ref whilst rolling.

Like all the teams not used to play in Europe, they are gonna struggle.
 
Our offense looks as if those players had never been on the pitch together.
 
Some match in Leverkusen.. SOme very nice combinations by the pills.
 
What a comeback to the Bundesliga for Holger Badstuber, a glorious header for the 1-0 for Stuttgart.
 
I need two goals in the Bayern game but it's not going to happen is it. Fecking Bayern
 
Ribery still has it, always enjoyed watching him play.

Werder's attack is embarassing, can they even play football?
 
You have to watch the ball, looked to me like Lewandowski was behind it.
