2015-16 German Bundesliga Discussion Thread

The only reason he moves is the ££££. He values money over playing. Could easily be a starter for a lower team in BL or a top team in Zweite.

Sorry, but I rather sit on Bayern's bench, earn a bunch of money, live in one of the most beautiful cities in Germany, travel around the world and so and so on than playing for Ingolstadt, Darmstadt or even a second division team. Just my personal opinion. Incredible Work-Life-Balance.

And that is exactly why he is a Söldner with zero ambition. Got it now?

[Kaiser30]

Buyern's feeder clubs.

That graphic must be wrong. Dortmund should be up there with the Götze transfer alone.

True.

The whole list:

I got what you meant even earlier, but I simply don't share that opinion. There are reasons for that move outside of money. And furthermore, I simply hate the expression. Fans blaming players for their desire to earn more money while fans also don't show any loyalty to their employer as soon as someone else offers 300 €/month more salary. It's everyone's personal decision.

The list is from 1979 or something like that. Found it on TM's facebook page.

Poldi's peaked as a teenager, but Gala fans will love him off of the pitch and he'll love them. That seems like a really good fit if he's just part of your attacking rotation, not expected to do any heavy lifting.

I got just one question about that.
Wasn't there a stipulation that players must play in one of the top four leagues to have a shot at the NT?
I mean, he wants to "play" the euros as well.
Though, given Jogi's way of selecting players he'll probably still include him to play the clown while others get robbed of experiencing a tournament.

Poldi could move to the mexican league and develop a beer gut and Jogi would still pick him.

Yeah.
I'm just waiting for Löw/DFB to invite Ailton as an honorary guest so both of them can host "talk" shows to make everyone else laugh.

Some more transfer news:
- Josip Drmic is having his medical at Gladbach and will sign today.
- Mitchell Weiser signed a three year contract with Hertha Berlin, making Nathan the happiest dude around.
- Hoffenheim keeps on spending as they signed Czech international Vaclav Kadarabek of Sparta Praha.
- striker Antony Modeste will transfer from Hoffenheim to Cologne
- striker Joselu will join Stoke City, while Hannover's jumping for joy as the english side will pay about €10 M for his services

Mitchell Weiser signed a three year contract with Hertha Berlin, making Nathan the happiest dude around.

Oh, I'm actually cool with it (low risk, our offense can't get any worse), just found it funny how predictable this move was. I called it right after the Hertha vs Bayern game where he scored. That's just how Preetz 'works'.

[Andi Obst]

Apparently, we're interested in Balazs Dzsudzsak (my god, what a name). I remember watching him play a couple of times and if I remember correctly I really liked him. He'd be Dardai's guy.

Hilarious.

From Hannover's reserves to transfered for 10 mil. €. WTH.

I haven't watched the russian league this year, but he was one I always liked in previous seasons. A true winger who'll break down the line and cross, but oh man can he cross. If you guys bring Ramos back the Hungarian could put up 10+ assists just off of the Colombian's forehead...if he can handle the speed of the BuLi.

Gotta love that new english TV deal. So many BuLi clubs are going to cash in on their crap just because EPL clubs don't know what they're doing. I'm expected Sven Bender, Schmelzer and Grosskreutz to sell for 10-15M to some dumb english club this summer or next.

Fortunately Ailton will be there to translate what Poldi is saying for the general public...

I'm happy the drmic move is happening, even if it's coming a season later than I wanted. He'll fit Favre very well.

I like Weiser, still think he has a good bit of talent if he stays at RB and gets to work on his confidence driving the play. He and Schulz could give Hertha a very solid FB pair for a club of their level.

And lol at Stoke.

Ingolstadt to win it all.

Why do Dortmund want Dost?

We're in on the conspiracy to keep Newcastle down.

Spoiler:

Nah, but seriously, I'm expecting another nightmare year from us, and I expect Bayern to win the Bundesliga with some other trophies

[ATL Boy]

Getting Dost would be terrible, he's Vedad Ibisevic 2.0, and I do not say that in a good way.

[Det the Threat]

Not sure at all.

Though, the most "fun" about it would be funding Wolfsburg another transfer given that they need to sell players to stay within FFP.

Patrick Helmes retires from football.

Injuries really ruined him.
