German football season 2023/24

Some surprises for Bayern's starting line-up. De Ligt gets to start instead of Upamecano and Musiala is benched for Choupo-Mouting getting a chance to play alongside Kane in attack.

Edit: Choupo-Moting scores an empty netter after Coman's pass and Sane's build-up.

Then Kane scores his 5th goal in 5 BL matches, as Davies brought the ball up and it bounced to Kane.

De Light stakes his claim fot more playing time by scoring a header from a corner.

They were lucky to get him for 9 mil from the bargain bin, they pretty much avoided relegation last year because of him and only due to injuries did his season stay under the radar. Goals per match he was fourth in the league already then.

9M is a great price for him. He's not worh more.
 
Boniface continued his beast mode with two goals, the first goal being a fine example of that.

Nagelsmann sighting in the goalless draw between Frankfurt and Freiburg, where the most notable action was players hitting, pushing and kicking each other, and Freiburg having a last minute goal correctly ruled out for offside.
 
Off topic but Germany really become good at Ice Hockey last years. Already better than Czech Republic and Sweden. And Basketball NT just won the gold. But not sure whats going on with the German Handball NT, long time ago they had any sucess.

Ugh. If only Boniface hadn't finished last season in quite such strong of form and we had been able to snap him up first...but I knew that richer clubs would beat us to him if he kept it up, which of course he did.

I expect Kane to outscore them all, but Boniface and Sesko are the two strikers I was most interested to see joining the BuLi this season...both are serious freaks who could give this year’s title race an interesting wrinkle.

As both Leipzig and Leverkusen, on paper, have addressed their biggest holes while having the star power to get results out of poor performances. Winning the league over those two, FC Hollywood, and BorussiaInc. will be one hell of an achievement :yo:

I’m surprised Brighton passed on Boniface. USG is their back yard. A rare “miss” for them

Maybe he wanted to come to the BuLi for the next step in his career? There were a lot of German clubs linked to him after the first reports of us reaching out to USG :dunno:

According to Bild RB fires Eberl.

Bundesliga: RB Leipzig feuert Max Eberl!

Der erste spektakuläre Rauswurf der Bundesliga-Saison. Und es ist kein Trainer ... Nur 25 Stunden vor dem Knaller gegen Bayern feuert Leipzig seinen Spor...

Good timing.

F***! Guess that means the rumors about him going to Bayern are true then. That really sucks, and right after things had just gone so delightfully tits up for FC Hollywood under Kahn & Brazzo :-(

I suppose we should just be glad that they f***ed things up with Nagelsmann before adding Eberl, because those two working together + Bayern's resources would just be terrifying...but man, I wanted to revel in Bayern punching itself in the face for a little longer :-(
 
RB plays Bayern tomorrow and on sunday Bayern annouces they found Brazzos successor. LOL.
I sometimes love Bundesliga.

I get Leipzig wanting to move quickly if Eberl is leaving them before next summer anyway. Disappointing as it might be.

But maybe we'll get lucky and he joins some EPL club instead :dunno:

What about a good old hockey/football trade:
Freund (Bayern, ex- RB Salzburg) for Eberl (RB Leipzig) and future considerations.
 
Last week against Wolfsburg was probably BVB's only somewhat decent performance this season. Let's see if they can build on that.
 
Favorite of angsty USMNT fans, John Brooks, having...a game today. Assisted on Dortmund's first goal and then floating in no-man's land picking up nobody on the second goal--then again, no Hoffenheim defender except the outside back was on that play.

Baumann should've gotten the ball on the second goal anyway.

All three goals have been a result of really dumb mistakes.

Yeah, that was a really terrible deflection out. Brooks could have cut it. probably, but just as easily deflected it in. Neither him or Kabak or the midfielders picking up either of the Dortmund attackers though.

On the balance this feels like nearly all of BVB's other matches this season. They are really fortunate to not be behind let alone leading. Hoffenheim taking it to them.
 
Bensebaini gets an incredibly stupid second yellow for kicking the ball way from Matarazzo on a pending throw-in. Definitely soft, but just a completely braindead thing to do already on a caution.
 
As is the case with all BVB wins so far, ugly performance but somehow come away with the 3 points.

With Leipzig and Bayern playing tomorrow they'll be in a top 4 position no matter what, having looked like at best a mid table team.

Loved that Ryerson goal though.
