Anyway Hamburg will have a hard time this season with so many good players gone (although their replacaments are very good)...

He was out for nine month because he had depressions. He couldn't handle the expectations everyone had about him. In Germany it's like everytime there is a young and talented player (and Deisler was VERY talented) people want to see a new superstar in him. And with Deisler it was like people saying "He will be the new Wolfgang Overath" and things like this. It just was too much for him.
When he made an huge impact in the Bundesliga he had the nickname "Basti Fantasti", now everyone calls him "Psycho Deisler"....

Bayern Munich sack coach Magath

Bayern Munich have sacked their coach Felix Magath, Bild newspaper reported on its website on Wednesday.

A club spokesman said that he could not confirm the report.

The Bundesliga champions failed to win either of their first two matches since the winter break ended last week, losing 3-2 to Borussia Dortmund on Friday and drawing 0-0 against Bochum at home on Tuesday. That draw dropped Bayern to fourth place.


bad decision. I think it won't change anything.

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Feb 6 2007, 01:43 PM

I think you're just stealing Kahn's lines...tongue.gif

How's my fav club Leverkusen doing?? wink.gif And Stuttgart?(almost exclusively coz Porsches are manufactured there!)

By the way does the word Bayer in Leverkusen have anything similar with Bayern in Munich.

Does it mean Bavarian?

BTW does Milan have a tie up with an car manufacturer now? I mean like Real and Arsenal have with Audi. So the players basically get to choose whichever Audi they like.

Isn't Alfa Romeo in Milan?

Shouldn't I open a new thread for this?

Do I have ADHD?

Oh Jack is (finally) back... and hyperactively!!

Bayer basically means ....
a pharmaceutical company that can maybe provide you with (anti-)ADHD dope!

Alfa Romeo (ALFA stands for Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili) was founded in Milan yes (also Ferrari was originally a part of Alfa!!) but bloody FIAT took over cause of financial trouble.

Milan does make everything better and more beautiful than ugly Torino... cool.gif devil.gif

Audi is listed as Institutional Sponsor in acmilan.com.

You seem to like cars....
Anyway, Stuttgart is doing extremely well, they're in third place now, and have a great young team with young striker Mario Gomez and other youngsters like Serda Tasci, Thomas Hitlsperger and so on.
Leverkusen is just crap. A shadow of what they used to be, especially after Berbatov is gone. Bernd Schneider is their only good player.
Schalke just beat Bremen 2:0 and has now taken the lead. Great game by Lincoln IMO. I think they'll win the Meisterschaft this year...

Oh and welcome back of course Cap'n

Just wanted to say...another two goals by greek sensation Theofanis Gekas....Bayern plays like crap...so does Bremen. best football team right now in Germany is Stuttgart. Gomez is THE discovery of the season. 13 goals by him so far. Another uprising talent is Manuel Neuer, Schalkes new 20 year old goalie. I'm sure he'll be the next Lehmann or maybe even the new Kahn.

I actually forgot about that thread. blush.gif

Aachen's second was a beauty! Maybe you should also look for defenders in the greek league thought cause you gave away the lead twice.

You think?? He only has scored around 12 goals, right?? How much has the top scorer scored ??

Oh and get used to Epalle's celebration, he always does that ! biggrin.gif

Hmmm....Aachens second should not have happened, but Bochum never manages to bring a lead over time... Gekas has scored 10 so far. Top scorer is Mario Gomez with 13 goals so far. To be honest I htink him or Kuranyi will be top scorer this year, maybe Makaay. But not Klose, he and Bremen play like crap recently...

The dry.gif was because they beat Bochum 3-0 last weekend...stupid Aaron Hunt scoring a hattrick. Very talented young player though...

How have they been playing in the league recently?

And comparing our performances to theirs, how do you think the ties will unfold?

I know there's 3 week's time before the games and things can chande, form can drop or pick up, but I would like to keep tabs on them but I don't get access to the German league matches

Bayerns last 3 games:

Berlin - Bayern 2-3
Bayern - Wolfsburg 2-1
Aachen - Bayern 1-0

They've been playing better the couple of games since Hitzfeld took over as coach. On Sunday we'll see how they really are...

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

Posted by: Jack Sparrow Mar 17 2007, 08:21 PM

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?

Posted by: Rossoneri7 Mar 17 2007, 10:54 PM

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

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.

Posted by: mchanna Mar 18 2007, 02:13 PM

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

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 cool.gif

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. biggrin.gif

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 smile.gif

Other than that, I have no idea tongue.gif

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....

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.

Interesting Bundesliga results today.

Borussia Dortmund 2 - Schalke 0
Bochum 2 - Stuttgart 3 (sorry La Palma!)
Eintracht Frankfurt 2 - Werder Bremen 1

So now, Stuttgart two points ahead of Schalke in first, with Bremen 2 points behind Schalke.

With goal differential taken into the equasion, Stuttgart will win the title if they win or tie next week.

Brazilian international Ze Roberto has been linked with a return to Bayern Munich according to reports in Germany.
The 32-year-old, who played for Bayern for four years earlier in his career, is rumoured to be on the cusp of signing a two-year contract at the Allianz Arena, according to Kicker.

Bayern failed to qualify for the Champions League after suffering their worst season in years under Felix Magath, who saw Ze Roberto as surplus to requirements.

But with former coach Ottmar Hitzfeld taking over halfway through the season, a return to the club for the 32-year-old looks on the cards.

Hitzfeld has always rated the Brazilian international highly and sees the versatile player as the ideal candidate to fill the gap left by Manchester United bound Owen Hargreaves.

Ze Roberto though, who currently plays for FC Santos, is unlikely to sign a contract before the end of the month as the Brazilian league is still ongoing.

Ribery set for Bayern

Bayern Munich expect to complete the signing of Marseille star Franck Ribery on Thursday.

The clubs are believed to have agreed a €25million (£17million) deal for the France international, which would make Ribery the most expensive player in Bayern's history.

"We just have a few details to settle, but the deal should be made on Wednesday," Marseille chairman Pape Diouf told L'Equipe.

"Ribery will leave for Munich on Thursday to have his medical and sign the contract. Bayern have always acted in a perfectly fair way since they declared their interest.

"When the player agreed to go to Bayern and our financial conditions were accepted, it was out of the question to imagine him going to any other club."

Ribery is expected to agree a four-year deal.

Diouf also confirmed that the money earned from the deal should allow Marseille to complete a deal for France striker Djibril Cisse.

"At the weekend or early next week, we will negotiate with Liverpool to try to keep Djibril Cisse."

Barcelona midfielder Ludovic Giuly recently hinted to a French radio station that he was eager to replace Ribery at Marseille, but Diouf claims nothing has yet been agreed.

"It is a just a vague appeal from the Barcelona player so far. We have to see what the conditions of the deal would be.

"But I have to be clear: we won't overpay anyone."

I find him a 'show off'. He'll score alot of goals against weaker teams, and rarely score in important games or against better teams. Just look at his World Cup record.

10 goals - It's superb.. Only 1 outside of the groups - Not so good. But as much as I hate him, in reality he'll make them a better team.

The thought of Klose, Toni, Makaay and Podolski all on one team playing in the UEAF Cup is quite scary. tongue.gif
