It's actually kind of impressive how well you pick the best coaches in germany to hate on; what with Streich, Tuchel, and Favre on your **** -list.

Nah, I actually rate Tuchel. Streich is a massive tw*t. Favre is overrated though.

Favre isnt even close to a Ralf Rangnick or a Roger Schmidt. The difference is though that he coaches a team that many in Germany(fans, media) like while Rangnick and Schmidt are at RB Leipzig and Leverkusen. That's why Favre gets more credit.
Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, Kevin Garnett, Toni Kroos, Pep Guardiola, Ernst Happel, Joachim Löw.

That and unlike Schmidt Favre can coach more than one style, and he doesn't need his team to outclass the opposition for his tactics to be effective.

I hate Dynamo Dresden, but it's very nice to see that they out of all clubs organized a football camp for refugee kids. Well done, Dynamo!

I've said many times that these plastic clubs are ruining German football.

But it's not Wolfsburg's fault. How do you get a fanbase in a city that only exists because of a car.


They are not ruining German football. Actually, they are making it more competitive because they can keep players that otherwise would leave for Bayern or foreign clubs.

That you actually want to convince us these clubs are ruining Germann football is kinda hilarious. It's actually different. Your club would be even more ruined than it already is if it wasn't for plastic money.

I said it multiple times. The league should expand to 20 clubs. Still got the plastic money that helps everyone to develop then and the traditional clubs from 2nd league have a better chance to make it back in the league.

Well Sevilla did have to cut back how many tickets where available to BMG supporters to avoid having their stadium over-run again...

I just prefer ESPN. Don't think I'd be active if I had to check my two leagues on ESPN and a Yahoo league.

Park is surely doing his best to convince Tuchel to bench Schmelzer.

Malli is proving me wrong. He's very good this season so far for Mainz standards!

He's been awesome this season. Malli & Muto will keep you in the top half of the table on their own if they keep this form up.

Yeah they have been great today. First Mainz game I've watched closely this year, quite impressed.

Though it is Hoffenheim.

Gisdol is a terrible coach tbh.

Team looks better than last year so far despite Geis leaving. As good as Geis is him leaving might actually be good for us. Last year everything was focussed way too much on him. Now everyone is taking responsibility.

And well Muto looks more skilled with the ball than Okazaki. Definitely a good purchase.
