Bundesliga 2015/2016

Terrible decision.

Poor shot from Müller too, but he was lucky keeper was shite
 
That's one of the weirdest penalties I've seen given. Well I take it, at least Dortmund fans can't complain about our luck with the referee today :D.

You shouldn't even be in a position where you need a gifted penalty. I've only watched from the 70th minute on, but this is such a one-sided match, I'm shocked you haven't put three or four past them already.
 
So, Bayern and Dortmund got some pretty big help from the refs today. Oh well. At least Leverkusen and Wolfsburg seem to drop points.
 
That´s not weird at all, ref (assistant ref) offered the pen and that´s it. No other way of looking at it. You are a fair member, surely you can agree it wasn´t a pen.
?? Well, yeah, that's what I meant. Never a pen.
 
Wolfsburg really seem to be missing Hunt already

Oh my bad. I just did a wrong interpretation of the context you used the "weird" word. Well i can´t complain since i had Muller scoring and +1,5 bayern goals.
 
Darmstadt with a win in Leverkusen and Ingolstadt with a draw against Wolfsburg, both promoted teams in the upper half of the table. Should make the relegation battle at the end of the season really interesting. Can't see them keeping it up, but already 6/7 points ahead of Stuttgart :D.
 
I really didn't rate this Stuttgart team highly at all at the beginning of the season but ffs what is happening there?

They're doing a Hamburg. Probably appoint Labbadia on the 30th match day to save them after Hamburg fired him for not winning a game between the 5th and 20th matchdays ;).
 
How did Januzaj do then?

You still have a performance thread for him, you know ;)

Just saw the match highlights of Bayern. Deserved victory (Hitz with a huge performance), but this pen is a fecking farce. We got lucky today aswell with pen decisions (if we get our soft one Hanover should have gotten one aswell), but this does not change what a horrible decision that was. Costa just ran into the defender. If you get such a decision against you, you might just stop defending alltogether. Müller calling it a "50/50" decision, because Feulner stoped moving and did not jump to the side, is just as pathetic.
 
Meh, Bayern just racks up the points as usual. They beat Hoffenheim while playing with 10 men (feck you Hoffenheim) and now they get this late fecking penalty. Deserved or undeserved does not matter, that's always an irrelevant discussion. Fact is that other teams hardly punish Bayern, they always end up drawing or losing as usual.
 
Frankfurt already 4:1 after 29 minutes. Two goals Meier who makes his first match after injury.

This has always been the case with Bayern, though, which makes it so hard to compete with them in the league. You have to match their brutal consistency and then somehow beat them in the direct fixtures.

I much rather want to see Leverkusen losing and Wolfsburg dropping points than the same happening to Bayern Munich. There are no concern of mine right now. Unless we are somehow ahead or at least in reach of them before the game in early March at home vs. them this also won´t change this season. Before that point I spare a potential race for the league title no thought. The goals for the season are clear: top 3 in the league, a title challenge in the EL and the final in Berlin in the cup.

So far it looks really well for us: four points ahead of Wolfsburg, six on Leverkusen before the direct confrontation next Sunday and neither Schalke nor Gladbach looking like they will have anything to do with the fight for the CL places.

We thankfully play the first EL game vs. Krasnodar at home (with me in the stadium :p), so there is no traveling and the chance to give some established players a rest and the others the opportunity to get game time ahead of the Leverkusen game. A win vs. them would of course be fantastic, because it would relief some of the pressure of them being in our neck the moment we stumble, which is bound to happen sooner or later.
 
Can't believe I watched this crap Bayern-Augsburg match, especially since it was the first time in ages I watch a complete league game from Bayern. Boring slow zombie passing football and an undeserved penalty to win the game - felt like how Bayern used to play 10 years ago.
With Wolfsburg and Leverkusen playing average already, I hope at least Dortmund can keep their level to make the title run interesting otherwise we'll already have a winner in march.

Bayern may have been boring today but they rack up the points as usual.
 
Our 2nd half wasn't bad. The first half was pretty shit though, mostly because we played without any energy. Augsburg were well organised, but we created a ton of chances in the 2nd half, really fought for the win. Lewandowski's goal was actually a quite good reflection of that. The game should have ended in a draw of course, really unlucky for Augsburg with the ridiculous penalty.
 
dortmund had an away match today:

Pep Guardiola has never lost a game in the first half of the season at Bayern Munich.:eek:

I never watch Frankfurt, but Alex Meier scores a lot of goals. Why hasnt a bigger club bought him?

He had plenty of opportunities to leave for bigger German clubs in the past, but stayed loyal to Eintracht Frankfurt. He's a very humble and down-to-earth guy who appreciates what he has at the club.

Regarding Bayern's joke of a pen there one could conclude Vidal and Coman brought the typical Juventus penalty with them to Bayern.

The linesman is by the way the brother of a former referee who was involved in a huge sex scandal. In one email that became public his brother celebrated Bayern's defeat against Milan in the UCL with the former FA refereeing spokesperson. Probably just a coincidence.

He also only started scoring so regularly in the Bundesliga in 12/13. He had 2 seasons with more than 10 goals now and was already past 30 after the first of the two.

I think he was smart to stay at Frankfurt, he's not good enough for one of the top teams in the league in my opinion, neither as a forward nor as an attacking midfielder. But he found the perfect place for him to excel and it's great to see a good player staying at a smaller club over being a squad player at one of the bigger ones.
 
Don't understand german refs and time added on. Player receives help for close to three minutes, various substitutions and a goal, and the game time added is just two minutes.

EDIT: Ok, this particular game will last longer, but only thanks to two(!) injury time goals from Werder.
 
Old man Pizza in his first game back at Bremen with the assist for the late winner vs. Hoffenheim :drool:

Life is good...

Even if it somehow hurts to see him in green. But last season he was always injured when we needed him.

And Werder makes the 3:1 in the last seconds. Junuzovic.
