He is a fullback and should play there. Plus he's miles better than Rafinha, even if Rafinha is good himself.
Thanks for posting, that's a fantastic read.
His parents are Brazilian though and he has the Brazilian nationality as well as the Spanish. He was born in Italy because his father played there. His brother chose to play for Brazil a few years ago after starting out in the Spanish youth nationalteams. Thiago could have played for Brazil as well.
Meh, seems like those "kiss-ass" articles. It'll be interesting to see Bundesliga on fox sports though, before it was on those obscure channels most tv providers didn't even carry. It should be a good exposure to the American audience.
Well Bayern the club and Munich as a city are basically the center and definition of arrogance, so that article is quite accurate.
If my two german parents had born and raised me in Linnyshaw, i recon i'd still be mostly german. Or dead
Wonder how Müller will take this That bolded bit is quite funny. Not sure how "smart" it was (how the other players, like you mentioned Muller, will feel about that), but i guess it's kind of true. Messi is on another levelIf my two german parents had born and raised me in Linnyshaw, i recon i'd still be mostly german. Or dead
Bit of a background article in todays issue of "Münchner Merkur". Gist is: Pep seeming more tense than ever. Is said to have given the team a thorough "behind closed doors" talking-to, tenor: This year, everyone runs where i tell him to run, only exception on the planet is Messi
I'd say he really is determined to win a big one in his last season here.
it is, it also has astonishing depth and detail, both about city and club. The lad has done his research. As a local, i didn'T learn much new, but it was interesting for its outside view. Very good article, I've read much worse.
Yeah, definitely. But then, I do understand if someone finds it boring. It's really long and probably a bit too much self-congratulary. I liked it because very rarely you get to read something that's so well researched.
Of course, the article itself is mostly honey to my ears
But I can see the points where he goes above and beyond journalistic neutrality.
That, and on conjunction advertising for the Fox Sport Bundesliga broadcasts, especially since they've been shoved to the fringe of their program (see prarek's post). Clearly, the author hopes to have more opportunities to write about the Bundesliga and enhance his profile, and there's no better (or easier?) way for kindling more interest in what seems to be his journalistic forte than to heap praise on the clear Nr.1 draw the Bundesliga has around the world: Bayern Munich? Can't blame him, he clearly knows his stuff and how to write about it.
By the way: You guys should treat yourself to the circlejerk and flame war going on the comment section between Bayern fans and (mostly) United fans. Reminds me of certain threads on here... and I was surprised to not find any comments by Anchan.
That's because he's banned.Well, I am actually surprised that he has not posted a long poem agreeing with every letter of this article in this thread

His dad started and won the 94 World Cup for Brazil, makes his kind of Brazilian. His brother Rafinha has picked to play for Brazil
Joshua Kimmich..
