OK...still..... whats he like?

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Good player, looks really weird. Kind of like Gareth Bale; not as good, but that's his style.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Another win. Got careless in the second half though.

 

[MelvinSmiley]

Shifty, may i answer to your sig "Because you´re a dick!"

Looks like your not that excited about Müller anymore. Always said it, the kid is overrated.

Our midfield is vanishing. Hopefully Gustav will remain healthy. Dont wanna see Pranjic again.

No Pranjic please. I don't think Muller is overrated, just not on form right now. I'm also not sure he knows his true position; he came up as a forward, then went to second striker, and right wing with the national team. He hasn't been able to focus on becoming the best player he can be because he doesn't know where he's going to play from game to game.

"I've had my fair share of injuries, but I've never experienced something like this. This was the worst injury in my life," Robben said to Bild. "It's impossible to imagine how bad it was. I had a lot of pain and the recovery process was very hard."

"I'm obviously looking forward to the game [Bayern's Bundesliga encounter with Borussia Dortmund] and to making my comeback. I can hardly wait for the match to take place. However, we don't want to risk anything by rushing my comeback."

That almost sounds like his career is in jeopardy, not that he's going to play tomorrow.

HAHA! When Gotze scored the commentator said, "Bayern/they are soooo buying him".

EDIT- On the players......Kroos looked awesome and Gustavo is a brilliant player. I thought Boateng and Badstuber weren't good but Neuer was immense.

From BvB I thought Hummels was fantastic. Kagawa is a beautiful little player and the rb Pisczek or somthn looked good. Lewadonski(wrong spelling?) looks a pretty impressive forward. That Santana guy was also pretty good.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Little ******* bastard from ******* Memmingen.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Group of death: vanquished

 

[Arnau]

City's going to Europa League, Man United and Chelsea scares none and Italian teams sucks. Unless a surprise this is between us and ******* Madrid.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, sure looks that way. Really hope we don't have to face you or Madrid until the final.

 

[Deisler]

Unless a surprise this is between us and ******* Madrid.

By us i am hopping you mean both FCBs' cabron.
Couse if i was the current Barca i would not want to face the current Bayern right about, NOW.

BTW Shifty it sure as hell is looking more and more like your boy Muller might be headed to the bench. Kroos has been fantastic spreading the ball and we have much more possession when he is around. And now that Robben is back his chances at winger will also greatly diminish. I see him becoming a supersub.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah it really looks that way. I don't have a problem with it because his form has been off almost all season. He needs to rededicate himself and work harder.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Really good article on Marco Reus and how good he is, but also how he's the only player in Germany capable of playing the False 9.

I almost, ALMOST, want him to go abroad because I'm sure he wouldn't be utilized that way at Bayern. I think he would be disgusting in Italy, in particular the very desperate Internazionale, but also Luis Enrique could probably turn him into a Ballon d'Or candidate at Roma.

Almost.

 

[4ndr3i]

My money's on him ending up at City.

 

[Arnau]

but also how he's the only player in Germany capable of playing the False 9.

Özil can also.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

He's not in Germany, but he also can't really. He isn't capable of scoring enough.

 

[Arnau]

Kroos and Götze as well. We saw Cesc, Pedro, Iniesta and Thiago playing that role for Barcelona + Silva in Spanish NT. False 9 is not a position is a tactic, Özil would do almost the same he always does but in a team without a reference up front.

Laudrup wasn't capable of scoring many goals and was Dream Team's false 9.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Kroos is slowwwwwwwwwww. Can't play it. False 9 is not "traditional 10".

 

[Arnau]

but think 10 times faster than most of his partners, Fàbregas is not much faster than him and play this role succesfully many times. False 9 is about drag defenders and create space so wingers and midfielders can score. Watch Milan vs Barça from last Wednesay.


EDIT: Reus is maybe most similar player to Messi in BuLi but not the only one capable to play as false 9. Kagawa or Ribery also could. Leo is the best at it but not the paradigma of false 9, there are completely diferent players playing that role like for example De Jong at Ajax.
