Bundesliga 20/21

Coombs

Oh to be in Stuttgart's position, just coming back from relegation and winning a game of football....

Come off it. Sven is a bit of a charlatan, a typical hipster favorite that can only operate in the right conditions. Like anyone, tbf, but context is everything.

BVB should think about replacing Favre soon. They're looking like how we were during Wenger's last years and they got questionable Spurs-eque mental ability.

This team has a boatload of talent that can win a Bundesliga.

Apparently they thought about it and agree with you. Favre gone it seems.

mentalvortex

Favre is sacked. Official.

Word in the media is that an interim coach will take charge till summer.

Agreement with Marco Rose to take helm from start of next season.

Damn. If Rose goes there they will challenge Bayern easily

this is what organised clubs do. get the man they want early. no stress.

What? He's starting next season! Stop carving everything in the football world into stick to beat Arsenal with. Dortmund are a chump club with zero ambition. Their "rivals" have made them their whipping boys on and off the field.

Reading more about it, it is not so cut and dry.

Apparently the caretaker coach Edin Terzic is very highly rated in coaching circles (was assistant to Klopp/Tuchel/Slaven Blic etc.) and knows their youth setup inside out.

He may stay on past summer if he has a Hansi flick's esque impact.

Jones you know anything about Youssoufa Moukoko? Everyone has been hyping him up. Dortmund fans say he is even better than Haaland at a young age.

He's been pulverising every domestic goalscoring record since he's like 11. Played for Dortmund's and Germany's U16s at 12, for their U19s at age 14, appeared and scored in UEFA Youth League (U19s) at 14 too and scored something between 1.5 to 2 goals per game in every one of his seasons. This season he was pulled up to their reserves, played in three games and scored four goals in one and hat tricks each in the other two. Dortmund motioned back in April to have the rules changed to allow him to play professional football when he turns 16 which he did yesterday.

Can't think of any player ever who had that profile at academy level, forget Haaland not even Lukaku or Messi were talked about like him. Really interested to see how he turns out because while he has a very good physique (still, he was 12 playing 16 year olds) his anticipation and finishing are what set him apart.

And now he's the youngest player to ever score in the Bundesliga:

Claudius

Wow. He belted that.

mentalvortex

Despite that Dortmund still lost by 2-1 against Union Berlin.

Honestly they are one of worst teams I have seen recently when it comes to defending set pieces.

Kin' hell did not expect that. What a finish

Bryant

Shick doing the Zidane volley vs. Bayern!

Sicario

Schakle up 4-0 at home. They haven’t won for 30 games prior to this game!

The Kola effect.

QuincyAbeyie

What a team goal that is from Dortmund.

And a great finish from Haaland for the first. Helps so much to have a striker who can score from any angle.

KurtEisner

Really fun game, Gladbach up 3:2 again after a brillant goal from Bensebaini to start the second half.

KurtEisner

Also, Bellingham is really impressive for a 17 year old, England have an amazing group of players coming through.

4:2 to Gladbach now, the third goal from a set-piece, Dortmund are horrible at defending those.

Frankfurt off to a flying start against Bayern. 2-0 in the 31st minute. They’ve dominated so far. Almost scored a goal from the half way line even. Bayern looking tired and uninspired.

Bayern's squad depth is coming to bite them in the ass.

To be fair, none of their summer signings have worked out bar Musiala (who was not even signed as a first team player).

mentalvortex

Sane has been garbage all game but then goes on and does something like this.

Jones must have blown a gasket over that defending.
