Bundesliga, DFB Cup, and other Bundesliga business 2014/2015

Is it just me or has Gladbach been incredibly lucky thus far in 2015?

Late equalizer today, late winner against Cologne (afaik even from an undeserved free kick), unconvincing 1:0 against a terrible Stuttgart and another 1:0 win against Freiburg after being dominated by them at home for most of the game..


The truth is that Dortmund is useless. It has nothing to do with money, it's all Dortmund's fault :mad:

Well Dortmund's help is certainly a big factor for Hamburg, but imo they can just spend so much more than the other teams at the bottom that they always have a certain amount of quality, even if their business is mediocre or even bad.

They're pretty average in the league at the moment, especially going forward. But then, I thought they played really well away at Sevilla in the EL, missed several good chances and then lost 1-0. Strange world :(
 
Schießt der Schieber in's Tor
Singen alle im Chor:
Ihr habt die schlechteste Abwehr der Welt!

Ah, good old Dortmund song...

How long can Dost keep up this madness? How many goals did he score now after the winter break incl EL? 10 in 6?
 
That's 11 goals in 6 games so far in 2015, right?
 
Dost = Goat form.

Turning the league of the world champions upside down.
He can become one of the world's best. 11 scorers in 6 games now.
Maybe one of the best ever. On Messi's level right now.

*cough* sorry

:confused:

He's on a great scoring run, but that's ridiculous hyperbole.

see:
Arjen is on Ronaldos and Messis level.
He is in goat mode.
24 scorer in 24 games for Bayern.
He just gets better...wonderful.

This Leverkusen hating gets really annoying here.
Augsburg is a very tough team and modern keepers can play football, if some have missed that.
What did this club to some here?
Why not just be happy about your team, why all this negative crap.
That never helped anyone.
 
Well Dost does score every 66 minutes a goal in the league so it is actually close to Messi. :D
 
I see. However, I'm ignoring anchan. How is he still not banned?

Because he's harmless. I actually envy him and his endless cheeryness when it comes to anything related to the Bundesliga. Reminds me of when I was still young and not a pessimistic, cynical weirdo...

Why should he be banned? He's harmless. Probably still drunk from the World Cup win in the summer, that's all.
 
The gap between Wolfsburg and Gladbach in 3rd place is bigger than the one between Bayern and Wolfsburg :eek:. Bas Dost rules!

And to think that Wolfsburg still haven't really revealed their true ace. If Dost gets injured, they can just summon the powers of the lord. How long can we hold them at bay?
 
It is 13 points between CL and relegation...

25 in the EPL
31 in La Liga
22 in Serie A
23 (probably 26 tomorrow) in Ligue 1

You can say everything about competition when it means first and maybe second... But the rest... You cannot even predict the results when it is not about Bayern and Wolfsburg. (bar Bayern's starts into the season halves)
 
That game. :( The silence in the stadium after the equalizer...

Bas Dost though :cool:

Is Götze again playing in CM now? Bernat on the bench, maybe Ribery plays left wingback? Alaba hasn't played as a regular leftback this season if I'm not mistaken, maybe he's really playing as a libero? Something like that would be pretty awesome.

The others are all 20 teams leagues and have played more games, so not really comparable, but yes it is very unpredictable and in a healthy state overall right now.
