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

thank god i missed the goal due to a sloppy stream. feck this.
 
hummels is nothing but a liability at the moment.
It's almost disturbing to watch him play. He seriously needs to get his act together. He's basically at fault for a goal each game.
 
4:0 Götze, beautiful turn and finish, but the defending from Bremen is so clumsy :lol:.
 
Dortmund feck up my acca EVERY single week, this is possibly their third defeat in a row with their 4th out of 5. Klopps stock must be plummeting right now :wenger:

He had so many great runs with Dortmund; there had to be a really bad run. He is a GREAT coach. But I also start to wonder if his pressure and motivation style runs flatt after some time.
 
Dortmund really should start to play some football in the 2nd half and get their act together in defense. Gladbach, Leverkusen, Mainz and Wolfsburg are all in the lead in their games and the gap to the top4 gets bigger and bigger.
 
immobile and mkhitaryan out, please. bring in PEA and ramos.

Doubt it. That would start showing much earlier. But he will have to come up with some ideas on how to play when there is no room to counter attack and losing the ball too often will lead to counter attacks themselves. In short Dortmund has to get better at breaking open very defensive teams without risking too much.

On the other hand it's also possible that they are just having one of those seasons where just everything goes wrong no matter what you do.

He needs to fix the feck-ups in defense. That's way more important at the moment. When Gündogan, Reus, Kagawa find their form again, they'll make something happen in attack anyway. Dortmund still has enough individual quality to win close games, but when they are constantly in panic mode at the back, you're fecked. The whole team gets nervous and the opponent gets more confident.
 
Immobile scores! 1-1

Reus assist.
Kagawa with a great ball win to start the transition.

I really like this Gladbach side. They'll finish top 4 in my opinion. The battle for 4th place should be brilliant this year.

Ilkay will help opening those rooms imo IF he gets back to his old levels. That Klopp started him after such a break with something on the line says it all.
 
I'd love to start laughing at Leverkusen, but I'm worried that I might jinx Stuttgart's comeback, so I wait until they equalise.
 
Weidenfeller :lol:

They're an absolute shambles. Even Hummels is all over the place.
 
I'm not sure what's more funny, Dortmund's defending or Leverkusen bottling a 3-0 lead :lol:
 
Leverkusen:

I might jinx this, but Gladbach is doing pretty well this season. Hope to see some new faces like them in the BuLi top 4 if Dortmund, Schalke, and Leverkusen continue to shoot themselves in the foot.
 
Wow. Dortmund are rekt. 5 defeats in 8 games.

And yet they still beat Arsenal.
 
feckin hell. what on mother earth did i just watch.
 
this is way below united's shambolic last season.

Yeah atm they look like they have the best shot at getting the second place. They look very solid at the back and play some good ball going forward as well.

I keep banging on and on about that Gladbach side for a while now, they are excellent and Favre is a brilliant manager.
 
A win tomorrow and we're ahead of Dortmund in the table, who would've thought...

Of course Gladbach is playing very well atm, but don't forget they did last year as well, and then they crumbled in the second half of the season. Much like Leverkusen. But they certainly made some good transfers so we'll see.
