So, gonna watch the BVB-Leverkusen replay. Both teams seem to be missing or resting some key players. BVB have Langerak in goal (Weidenfeller on the bench) and Ginter-Sokratis starting. I love both of these players so this should be interesting. BVB playing a diamond apparently.

WTF?! Leverkusen start and score within 7 seconds! Ginter got skinned there, too. Holy shit.

19 minutes and Leverkusen have been the better side. It looks like they're better at this gegenpressing thing than Klopp's side.

After a nice match with a lot of huff and puff Dortmund can't break Bayer and MotM Bellarabi dispossesses an overconfident Durm and plays a perfect pass for Kiessling, who really deserves a call-up already.

That 9 seconds goal was hard to overcome, but yeah BVB dont seem to be the same powerhouse they were the last 2 seasons.

They have more depth but less starting quality. They were also playing against one of the better sides without Weidenfeller, Subotic, Hummels, Schmelzer, Sahin, Bender, Gundogan, Kuba or Ramos and Gross only played off the bench so I wouldn't jump to any conclusions. Replacing Lewy will be tough, though, and Immobile didn't look impressive at all.

Immobile needs time to adapt, although he tents to be a slow starter, that is the main reason Contr doesnt like him.

Right, fuck United, it's Gladbach time! Kramer on the bench and the idiots in the commentary team thinks it's because he's gonna be sold, even though he's on-loan from Leverkusen. Disappointed, from a Chelsea perspective, that Hazard doesn't start, but with Traoré and Hahn in the team, on top of Herrman it's gonna be hard for him to get minutes. Romeu starts for Stuttgart though. No Kruse in the matchday squad is very disappointing, though. Why do so many German clubs start the season with starters on the bench? Is it for the Europa League?

Also, what's the deal with Tuchel? I thought he was going to Galatasary but apparently Mainz would rather pay him another year to just sit around.

I want to see Erzgebirge Aue gain promotion to the Bundesliga for next season, and Warren Barton placed on the discussion panel, just so I can see him squirm trying to avoid pronouncing their name ...

also, Wynalda would be the Bundesliga guru ...

hooray for Fox!

Gladbach ceding possession to Stuttgart who aren't carving many chances. One Gladbach get past the first block they are creating good opportunities but Hahn has been quite poor and I expect to see either Hazard or Herrman on sooner or later. I'm liking Rudiger in Stuttgart's defense. The commentary team is getting on my nerves for fawning over Romeu and Dominguez. They're good players and Romeu is gradually growing into the game but come on guys, there are much better players on the pitch.

Hazard on for Hrgota who has been awful. A Malanda-esque miss among the highlights. Looks like Hazard is gonna play up top with Raffael for now.

And now Kramer and Johnson on for Hahn and Nordveit. Surprised it's Johnson on for Hahn and not Herrman (or Johnson on and Korb off).

Jesus christ! Kramer with a brilliant chip for a good run from Hazard who hits the post. That was Kramer's first touch, too. This team is gonna look sexy once they get into some rhythm.

Watching the BVB-Augsburg replay. BVB featuring more starters although they're still featuring Kehl-Jojic in midfield. Ciro and Ramos on the bench and Auba leading the line. 11 minutes in and Reus shows why you can't give him space, doing everything perfectly ion a 1-2 with the Gross and finishing.

Mikky is looking better, too.

EDIT: Just after I hit post: Sokratis from a corner.

Man, he'd been injured so long that I'd forgotten how good Piszczek was. If he keeps this up he'll be back in the Top 5, if not Top 3, in no time.
