Bundesliga 11/12

Neuer has been confirmed.

Schalke after Lehman for 6 month contract apparently.

I didn't know the rivalry between the two clubs was that bad. It seems to be even bigger than HSV x St. Pauli

I hate HSV.

For the inane reason that they partner with Rangers, and nothing more.

Yeah.




Cunts.

Think it has to do with the fact that they just don't play St. Pauli that much anymore.

No Sahin.

Anymore signings?

Borussia Dortmund.

But alot depends on how well Gundogan replaces Sahin, and they should seriously push the boat out for Shaqiri.

This needs bumpage.

What's with Bayern Munich fans hating Neuer? What has he done?

Played for Schalke.

Never knew they were rivals.

Actually its because he copied Oliver Kahn's celebration, when he and Schalke 04 won against Bayern Munich, to provoke the Bayern fans.

Papiss Cisse

Oh. I'm sure he will win them over.

New member ClarkY saw my thread and is a Bundesliga fan, bumped for him.

Thanks for that

I look forward to the season start, good to see so many people with interest in it.

Gladbach snap up Japanese talent


Yuki Otsu (right) has won one cap for the Japan U-22 national side

Mönchengladbach - Borussia Mönchengladbach have signed Japanese talent Yuki Otsu from J-League outfit Kashiwa Reysol.


The 21-year-old attacker has agreed a three-year deal at the Borussia Park, lasting until 2014.

Eberl delighted

Borussia sport director Max Eberl was delighted by the acquisition: "Yuki Otsu is a player for the wide attacking positions. He made a good impression as a trialist and we're very pleased to have reached an agreement with his club for the transfer."

Just thought I would post this, help the thread

I saw a bit of Dortmund playing in a pre-season tournament yesterday and today. The two new signings, Guendogan and Perisic, and the promotion from their youth team, Leitner (plays like Sahin) all looked really good.

They are, in fact the Midfield depth is huge, 8-10 players fighting for "Sahin's Spot" and the two men at the back are rock solid, Barrios may score another 15 or so goals this season. Still doubt that they will win.

Hummels and Subotic are both class defenders would love to see them both playing for a world class team. Hopefully Dortmund can become one. I've always liked them.

You say 8-10 players fighting for Sahin's spot but I think it's really down to 2, those being Guendogan and Leitner. The rest don't really provide what Sahin did, and they would mirror the play of Bender.

I know that there has been players brought in, but it has depth so he will use it.

Two weeks to the day.

I'm buzzing for the season start, Hannover FTW.

Flippin' Guendogan. One standout season for Der Club and he splits.

It will be interesting to see who finishes higher out of Mainz & Hannover, both had terrific seasons.

Bayern Munich will be favourites, even if they finished 6th they would be. Borussia may not be as good as last season, Bayer are always pretty decent. Then 4-5 teams fighting for what is now 4 CL Spots.

If Bayern fix their shitty defence they will finish top. If not; Neverkusen.
