Bayern dreww 1-1 against Bremen today.

La Palma did you watch the match? If so how did they play?

I watched it ... Bayern have deffinatelly changed in their tactical play. They base their game on fast, first touch passing. And are dangerous on the counter as well.

Werder did attack compared to Bayern

HAHA! Bayern lost once again. This time against the 16th of the table, Eintracht Frankfurt. They're pathetic.

Oh, and Gekas scored again.

Of course he did, he's the future Ballon d' Or winner!

Vey good to here.

Did they play bad? Or did they play well and still lost?

So Bayern can hold their own against big teams, but lose against small ones, or they are just inconsistent?

Either way, good for us or bad for us?

Bayern Munich arent as strong as they were last season ... If anything, they are weaker.

In anycase, at the Allenz arena it will be difficult to play them, but the game in the San Siro will decide wether Milan will go through or not. At least that is my prediction.

In anycase, we'll pass them with flying colors

Yes but so are we

What u talking about ... We are the strongest team out there

ok

Bayern misses Ballack and his headers. Him and Sagnols crosses were unstoppable in the Bundesliga.
They didn't play too god, and they're as inconsistent as I've never seen them. And even more important they miss the "Bayern Dussel", meaning winning even matches they play very bad.

Right now I see us ahead of them We still have Ricky but they don't have Ballack. He may be mediocre at Chelsea, but at Bayern he was the leader of the team.

that's why it's good for us that MVB doesnt play in both legs....

He's practically the replacement for Ballack (although not as effective as Ballack was) but still very dangerous

Do not use THAT abbreviation for Van Bommel!!

^^^^^
For once, listen to the man.

For once?? That's your way of saying thank you?? After all that we've lived together??

Ain't no sunshine when you're gone....
Only darkness every day....
Ain't no sunshine when you're gone...
And you're always gone too long...
Every time you go away...

Bochum 2 - 0 Hannover. Gekas scored again, his 14th so far. No one scored more goals this season than him. Who are Klose, Makaay and Podolski?

Closing in on that Ballon d'Or!

La Palma, did you watch Bayern's game by any chance?

If so, did they play well against Shalke? Or just scraped through by 2 lucky goals?

But from what I understand Shalke's form has really dropped these past couple of months right?

They trashed Schalke. If it wasn't for their great young goalie Manuel Neuer, Bayern would have won 4-0 or so.

Damn

But aren't Shalke in terrible form atm?

??

I watched the game last night at Friday's... Bayern thrashed them?? Schalke were attacking all the time, Bayern only counter-attacked here and then...



Damn burgers!

Schalke really had no chance of winning the game... Bayern won 2-1 over Hannover on Saturday. Really weak first half, but then Demichelis and Schweinsteiger scored the winning goals. Bayern won't win the Championship this year but too bad for us, Hitzfeld gave them their self confidence back...
Btw, my club Bochum won 4-1 over Leverkusen, goals 15 and 16 by the "Greek lightning" Theofanis Gekas. He'll win the "Goal scorer cannon" this year

Bayern miss Ballacks presence and name more than his play. Cuz Van Bommel is much better than Ballack's last two seasons at Bayern ( this from a friend who follows Bayern ) ... Ballack's best days were at Leverkusen (Im sure u know more than me..) but he was never the same for Bayern. So Bayern loosing Ballack, they only lost the name and presence, but comparing players, Van Bommel is all round better than Ballack ... Btw, I do disagree with this, as I like Ballack, but from what the guy said, he totally convinced me.

IMO Ballack is world class, and Van Bommel is just a solid player. Ballack is superior to him in any department. Shooting, heading, passes, crosses, etc.
Btw, he was the most important player for Bayern in the last two seasons (especially the last one). Sagnols crosses and Ballacks header, with that Bayern dominated the Bundesliga. Everyone knew what would happen when Sagnol once again played one of his great crosses and Ballack was in the penalty area almost no one could prevent him from scoring.
But Ballack is not a playmaker, he never was, he's something between that and a second striker IMO, and his headers might be the best in the world.

Ballack in Leverkusen was much better than when he was at Bayern. At Leverkusen, he played as a CM, somewhere between Kaka's position and Pirlos ... But never seemed to bring in that performance too Bayern.

That is as far as I know for Ballack, but what he did with Bayern, he has definitely become a more attacking player than when he was at Leverkusen.

Van Bommel isn't a super star as Ballack is/was ... And Van Bommel will never be one. To compare both players, I don't know much about them, just from what I'v heard and seen (CL games and a couple Bundesliga) ...

In the end, I don't doubt Ballacks shooting or heading, but wha this Bayern fan was telling me was that Van Bommel is more effective and a team player than Ballack is. And that Van Bommel is playing in his own position, while Ballack played (at Bayern) at a much more forward position than the one he was used to at Leverkusen

Other than that, I have no idea

Stuttgart - Bayern 2:0

There is a good chance we won't see Bayern in the CL next year

5 points between them and 3rd place Stuttgart ... I think Bayern already bowed out

How many matches to play?

P.S. I don't follow the DFL. Just hate "Baya Munxa".

6 more games .. (36 games in total)

Seriouslly, Stuttgart don't have any serious opponents to face in the remaining 6 games.

Bye bye Bayern

Ahem...it's just 4 games There are 34 games in total. We won't see Bayern next year.

oh I thought there were 18 teams in the bundesliga ... ... Well u know best, and this means, Bayern are going to UEFA next year

There are....18 Teams..... 34 matches
Have fun with Tottenham Bayern

18 teams = 17 + 17 A team can't play with herself

i'd really like to see some fresh teams next year in the CL, so i'm happy about things are going!

It won't be the same without the Crimson Cobras though...

Just figured that out

QUESTION TO THE GERMAN CREW:



So... it's true Van der Vaart told Bild that he's dreaming on joining a spanish club for next season? (After rejecting Bayern)

Barcelona? Madrid? Valencia? I think he said it to BILD on the last days.

P.S. I think he's mom his spanish... anybody knows from where?
P.S. With a girl like that... I'd say Madrid is in pole position.

she is fine!

I wouldn't listen to news of Bild. That paper is just a piece of sh!t. I personally think he'll play for Hamburg next season. I also haven't heard that he rejected Baynern (but if he'll leave he surely wants to play CL ).
Oh and Silvie, well she's simply hot as hell!!! (and lighteyears hotter than skinny Spice)

Well, I read in a brazillian paper quoting him 3 days ago to Bild. Dunno...

And yes, she's something.

Well...quotes from Bild are a funny thing. Let's take the case of the rumour that Jürgen Klinsmann could become Chelskis new coach. On one day Bild interviewed Franz Beckenbauer to say that it's not very likely, that Klinsmanns becomes a Club coach. 3 days later they quoted an article of "The sun" which was based on Bilds interview with Franz Beckenbauer to say that Klinsmann despite other statements might become Chelseas new coach. Confused? Yes....so am I....

OK. I'm a Bild fan from now on.

With a girl like that, I'd play for Liverpool! Well not really... but I would think about it. Basically, I wouldn't leave home!

Wow. Bochum beat Schalke today, 2-1. Title race in Germany will be down to the wire -- Bremen and Stuttgart are now only 4 and 2 points from the lead and have yet to play this weekend.

And Gekas scored again... his 19th in the Bundesliga and 7th consecutive! I could have never expected this... I really can't believe it!

Gekas>Gila!

Well that's not actually a big feat, it's more like...

( ... ) > Borriello > Gila = 0 .

Gekas and Misimovic. Bochums two best players.
Both scored today against Schalke, in the end Bochum won 2-1. What a game it was. I was in the stadium and it was so cool to the all the p!ssed Schalke fans who already celebrated the championship, and now Bremen can take the first place on Sunday.
Bochum is through anyway, another year in the Bundesliga for the "Zaubermaus".
Gekas is great. What a striker he is! Fast, good at the ball, good shot, good insticts --> A complete and modern striker, probably the best Bochum ever had.

Edit: I've seen your NTs coach dst. And I have to say....for an almost 70 year old he's very fast

Otto??

Yeah...Otto "Rehakles" Rehagel", he was probably wathcing the so called "Sirtaki Bomber"

Oh btw, of course he wasn't on the pitch, he was just running (and hereby I really mean running( uo some stairs

You think Gekas would be expensive to get?

But then again, would he be successful in Italy? I think he could be worth the gamble. I like his style and always impressed me when I managed to see him play
