I've read that Delaney wants go to England (Dortmund wants at least 10 mio)

btw.:
Haaland is out until January.
This is bad for the whole squad, because nobody can reliably score.
Good night, Dortmund.

Dortmund and John in shambles :(

yeah^^
especially after such disappointing games by Dortmund
these are always performances, where you get the impression (as a spectator) that the players intentionally play worse as usual, only to force a change of the head coach.
consequence is the 4th seed in the national league. :banghead:

would be no wonder if they loose the first place in the cl-groupe against St. Petersburg on tuesday.


Fair enough. Other fans have to endure some pain, too, when I have to watch Mainz lose against the likes of Bielefeld week in week out.

That was a poor result against Bielefeld no doubt. Mainz has been a bit unlucky as well. Probably should've won against Hoffenheim and against Schalke. They play Köln tomorrow so who knows what will happen lol

Looking at the starting XI we are not going to win this.

RB at LB
CF at RB
Scrub Latza back in it

Draw or Cologne win will be the result.

Not sure when they are going to start picking up points if they cant against a 10 man Cologne side.

About time they get relegated.

Stöger has actually been a nice surprise. Yet he never gets the chance to start.

Augsburg just scored at min 90 +3 and the game ended 2-2. Schalke is struggling so damn much. Just wait now for Favre to sign there soon. lol

I have to say: I am not a fan of promoting the assistant coach after getting rid of the coach.

Why? The assistant coach usually was part of the bad things that happened before the coach was fired. He mustve had similar ideas that the coach had. Otherwise they wouldn‘t work together.
How is that team supposed to get new input to improve? I dont see it. When you fire the headcoach, the assistant should be gone, too.

You can see it with Mainz. Lichte was the assistant coach under Beierlorzer and Schwarz and provides absolutely zero new ideas. He is even still playing players out of position to the same extent Beierlorzer did. You are not going to improve like that. Its a nightmare.

Flick is the sole exception I can think of where this worked incredibly well.

Third game without a shot on target from both teams in league history. Guess this could‘ve lasted another 90 or 180 minutes without a shot on target...

Thanks for our first clean sheet of the season Nathan.

That Schalke downfall is amazing. Only 3 games shy of the old Tasmania record and there is no sign of improvement at all. If they can´t win against Bielefeld they should just end the season.

Bielefeld, Hertha, Hoffenheim next. Those are all beatable opponents. Schalke don‘t have a striker currently, though and are very vulnerable at the back. Hard to pick up points like that.

That said, Baum has has showm signs of resignation in the post game interviews.
Don‘t think he was the right choice as coach.
