Superb kit. Is it available to buy?

I think they where briefly! There was apparently about 200,000 people in a virtual queue waiting for hours to buy them the other day

So now I presume they are going for silly money on the secondary market.

Mainz deservedly 1-0 up at half time vs Gladbach. Now for the 2nd half...

And now a pause, because Gladbach fans have let off loads of smoke and pyro sending a huge cloud over the pitch

And now it’s 2-0

Dim Glas · « **Reply #17242 on:** February 24, 2023, 09:35:49 pm »

What a win for Mainz, 4-0, and totally deserved. Gladbach had no answer to Mainz’ pressing machine.

Bo Svensson is some coach, what he’s done with that team is amazing.

You will not find a more feast or famine Team than Borussia Monchengladbach. A 4-0 kicking, a 4-1 kicking, a 3-2 win against Bayern and 4-1 win away from home just in the last 5 games. A team that lost 2-1 against Bochum and then beat Dortmund 4-2 the following week. A team that beat Leipzig 3-0 to get smashed 5-1 by Werder Bremen the next time out. Responded to that by beating Koln 5-2. To say they’re bipolar wouldn’t even come close.

That’s why Gladbach are called the Robin Hood of the Bundesliga, take from the rich, and give to the poor.

Anyway, time to watch a bit of Hoffenheim vs Dortmund.

Heja BVB!

0-0 so far though.

Dim Glas · « **Reply #17245 on:** February 25, 2023, 03:06:54 pm »

Oliver Baumann rolling back the years here with 2 sensational saves on Seb Haller efforts. Good game, Hoffenheim also getting a few chances, it’s been open.

Julian Brandt just backed Dortmund ahead

Great delivery from Reus and Brandt ducked and it went off his back and in.

I put a 100 quid bet on with my old man who think's Xabi will become our next manager whenever Kloppo leaves. I told him Xabi's not good enough (Yet) to manage us but he wouldn't have it. So DN how good is XabiBall?

not seen them a huge amount, but did watch them vs Mainz last week, and they where deservedly beaten, entertaining game, but not great signs of a team moving places fast! I’m more of a Bo Svensson fan than a Xabi Alonso fan when it comes to Buli coaches

Leverkusen have improved some though, but are still wildly inconsistant and are leaking quite a few goals in recent weeks. Long way to go I’d say for him and the team! They are a talented squad still underperforming. But it’s early days - not that clubs can afford to be overly patient of course. They won’t be in Europe next season, so time to get their shit together league wise!

Samie · « **Reply #17248 on:** February 26, 2023, 01:44:16 pm »

Nice, I look forward to get some long overdue pocket money from the old man.

Now cleared up!

It was just about at the point that they needed a yellow ball

Choupo Moting puts Bayern ahead on the half hour.

Elzar · « **Reply #17251 on:** February 26, 2023, 05:12:11 pm »

Probably game over as Coman scores. Thought Union might struggle with European football added in on a thursday. They need to ensure this game doesn’t derail their league season

Elzar · « **Reply #17252 on:** February 26, 2023, 05:18:07 pm »

It is here (US), not much help that I know

Big big game this one no doubt, Dortmund win, and then they are very much set up for the battle for the league to the end - no sodding excuses this season!

But if Leipzig win, they are then back in it.

So here’s to a BVB win!

Dortmund got their old style scoreboards tonight

Lovely assist by our Jude too

Comms saying 5 in 5 for Brandt

Edit- disallowed for handball

DelTrotter · « **Reply #17259 on:** March 3, 2023, 07:45:18 pm »

Get me Jude Bellingham!!

Genuinely think Dortmund kept the ball for about 2 mins before that goal, not sure I've ever seen that long before.

Ah VAR ruins football again, what a surprise

We should try and get Jude and Brandt, go for the 2 JB’s

They have a very good understanding, another lovely pass there.

Penalty.

What a pass from Wolf that was.

Yeeessssssss Emre Can

Double bounce and in!

2-0 BVB.

Jookie · « **Reply #17264 on:** March 3, 2023, 08:23:07 pm »

If they hold on to the win tonight it would be 11 wins on the bounce for Dortmund since the winter break.

At the moment they scored 30 and conceded 8 in the 10.5 games played.

Real tests are in this game and next 4. Chelsea and Bayern (both away) n 2 of the next 4 games. Could make or break their season.

Dim Glas · « **Reply #17265 on:** March 3, 2023, 09:26:59 pm »

good grief the end of that game

Schlotterbeck with a cleareance off the line from a Werner shot and Meyer with an instinctive save from a Forsberg strike. Tense!
But Dortmund hang on in the end to win 2-1.

Yes, it was a decent watch for sure. Bayern be back on goal difference later, but it’s very tight at the top, BVB have been in incredible form.

Also Schalke are on fire

They looked dead and buried, but all of a sudden there is life. 2 wins on the trot, and I think 4 draws before that. Now no longer bottom of the league.

4 teams though on 19 points (Bochum, Schalke, Hoffenheim and Stuttgart, and then Hertha on 20, it’s quite the battle down there.

Matthijs scores, much to the de Ligt of the travelling support.

Dim Glas · « **Reply #17273 on:** March 5, 2023, 03:00:29 pm »

Leverkusen giving Hertha a good beating so far, 2 nil up after half an hour.

Bad news though, as Frimpong looks like he has a muscle injury, and is getting subbed off. Shit for Leverkusen that with the Europa game coming up next week too. Such a class player. Goal and assist today too.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #17274 on:** March 5, 2023, 03:06:51 pm »

Leverkusen are playing post office managers though, so they should cruise through without him. Probably won't be there next year though, he's improved a stack.

Dim Glas · « **Reply #17275 on:** March 5, 2023, 03:51:43 pm »

what a lovely goal for Leverkusen, Wirtz with the perfect pass to Diaby. Game well and truly over.

Samie · « **Reply #17276 on:** March 5, 2023, 05:32:19 pm »

We should be all over Wirtz mate, as I said previosly. I think he's going to be really, really good.

damn, a stunner in Köln, Bochum 2 nil up with just 15 mins left. The battle at the bottom of the league is quite something.
