The Bundesliga Thread

Had a look at the league table had no idea Stuttgart were in relegation trouble only heard about Hamburg's problems, what happened to Stuttgart?

Hopefully United don't get too excited about Bayern's loss today

Clearly the side isn't very motivated to finish out the Bundesliga season. Squad was pretty heavily rotated too, I've never heard of this Ylli Sallahi guy. Sounds like a greyed out player in FM.

Sallahi is really good though. He is supposed to be nearly on Alaba's level talent-wise.

After Ramos (Hertha), Ginter (Freiburg) is next (via @Bild). Dortmund's shameless pilfering of Bundesliga talent continues

So Bayern get beaten 3-0 by BVB ... meh!

In a a' meaningful' game.

While it might be meaningless, they still beat the best players you have. You're winless since clinching the title and have now conceded more than you did in the whole of last season, and won't be able to improve upon last years' points total and are going to need 17 goals in 4 matches to improve upon last year's goal tally. All of those things are meaningless, but all in all, so far, Bayern are worse than last year (and are being made to look far less dangerous) and I would not be surprised if you didn't win the CL.

I would be embarrassed if any club beat us 0-3 at home, no matter how unimportant the fixture is.

Not to mention they now play the most boring football ever.

Eh, I'm not worried. Clearly it's a motivation problem after playing at such an intense level for 2 straight years.

Uh, what?

People always talk about daily walking as a recommended exercise (for those who aren't into the intensity of running or lifting weights). Maybe it's something to do with that... what that actually accomplishes/does to the body.

Or the Olympic sport?

Sport, not exercise. Sport implies competition.

And decision making

Hamburg is so bad they wouldn't survive in Zweite. And they have players like van der Vaart, Ola John, Adler and Djorou - horrible managing.

Yeah they are really awful. We're a Braunschweig goal away from them being firmly in the relegation zone too.

I'd take Calhanoglou at Juve

Well from what I've seen, without Calhanoglou Hamburg would already be relegated. Not that they stand a chance in the relegation play-off with these kind of performances.

Calhanoglou is great, Badelj ius great, the rest of the squad is pretty shit. Having a good keeper doesn't make up for a shit defense and Vaart and Calhanoglou don't fit in the same team. Lasogga stopped scoring, too. I think HSV will probably beat whoever it is they face in the play-offs, assuming they're not overtaken. Good spoils for the taking if both Nurenberg and HSV go down, though.
