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

How much would you value him at ? and would Bayern be willing to sell him?
I don't think he'd want to leave, no matter what any other club offers. It's probably impossible to put a price tag on him. He's not only a fantastic player, he's very important to the fans and in terms of marketing within Germany. Trying to sign him is just pointless, in the same way Giggs and Scholes never left United no matter what other European top clubs offered.

Cant believe he has become such a cult hero, i always thought it would be Kroos, i really don't see Bayern doing much business in the Summer
 
Alaba's freekicks are just awesome. feck all that fancy stuff others do. He makes it look so easy, but he hits them perfectly. Almost every time.
 
Third direct freekick converted by ALaba since january. He's on fire

Kroos - no. He does not have the personality. Apart from his football Müller is about a dream come true for the marketing and communication department of Bayern. It cannot come much more Bavarian as Müller is.

Alaba... This homegrown production line of Bayern...

Alaba is more a product of inspired youth scouting. He was already rated whil playing at Austria alongside (even higher-rated) Knasmüller and Dragovich. Knasmüller also came to Bayern and is currently trying to revive his career at Ingolstadt in the second league.
No doubt though that Alaba suits Bayern and Munich in an excellent way. a natural match one might call it.

Müller is a phenomenon not only on the pitch. He is bavarian redneck and worldly-wise at the same time, sly, naive, subtile and always leaving a rest of a doubt whether he is acting stupid or being stupid at times.
He is not a "typical bavarian" or identifiaction figure of the club in the sense of a Großkreutz, who is hard to imagine succeeding any place else. Müller would have no problem at all fitting in any culture i can imagine and thrive, yet i don't see him ever leaving the club for the forseeable future, as he inspires in most people that he represents the club and bavarians more than any Hoeness as representative of the "old" Bayern.

That's an excellent description of Müller.
 
Muller isn't one of those people who you think of when naming world class players, but he is just so consistently good. One of Bayern's most important players.

Hard to compare him to anyone either. Fantastic player.
 
2-0 Koo

Finally another away win. Not a vintage performance, but Okazaki is scoring goals again and Karius is back to his best and I'm confident that we will stay up this season.
 
Müller has been absolutely outstanding today. Fantastic performance.

ya he had a few weak weeks but now that the important part of the season is coming Müller seems to be back to his usual self.

Yeah you will stay up for sure.

I think the relegation of Paderborn is pretty much confirmed, besides that I'm not sure really. Stuttgart look terrible but they already played against most of the difficult opposition so who knows. They certainly need to catch up quickly though.

That leaves Freiburg/Hamburg/Hannover/Köln/Berlin...

The difference is the role he played. He often is more in a helping role for Robben playing the 8 - then it is Robben and Ribery that thrive. Today he was really needed with both missing - and then he is there.

Matchday 34: Paderborn vs Stuttgart :drool:

Nah, he was already much better against Donzek than in the weeks before. It's not new that Müller has sometimes phases in which he really seems pointless, especially in the league (he even admitted that in the past) but he can raise his game when it matters.
 
with both clubs already relegated at that point.

Paderborn will be, not sure about Stuttgart. 2 wins in a row against direct opposition and they're "back". Hopefully they will continue with their "excellent" form though.

I wouldn't mind if they swapped places with you guys :D

Stuttgart is more of a mess than us this season. And it's just a shame that 2 of our starters are limping off the pitch every week, there's pretty much nothing you can do about that and it totally kills our game. No substitutions left to change something and no options on the bench.

Yeah, Stuttgart deserves to go down this season, no doubt. More than Hamburg ever did. That being said, I still like them more than Hamburg, so I'm all for swapping places.
 
I´m curious if the "Yellow wall" will do some kind of special choreo today to remember the most fateful day in the clubs history from exactly a decade ago.

It´s crazy that it´s just been ten years since the day, which could have been the death blow for the whole club, if some people would have voted differently back then.

Would not be so bad, if some supporters would be motivated to remember exactly where we come from and what the officials have accomplished in such a short amount of time without a sugar daddy holding their hand and serving millions on a silver platter.
 
Yet another comprehensive Bayern victory. Werder are just another of their whipping boys now.
 
Time for Dortmund. Hope it´s entertaining as usual
 
:lol: Dortmund´s defence. With a proper striker Koln could be 2 up already
 
Reus looks up for it but Koln defending well atm
 
Indeed. Deyverson a former Belenenses player who was known for his pace, is in his perfect enviroment against this type of defending
The commentators here are saying the fact the fullbacks push forward so much it leave Subotic and Hummels exposed.

The FBs are not the problem here. We desperately need another solid build up player in the midfield. Kehl has now caused three extremely dangerous counters. It is very worrying how much structure and stability we lack without Sahin on the pitch.

Cologne´s pressing is pretty impressive, though.

Right. A bit like United then?:)
