Eintracht still looking for a plan to win games. Without Kostic in stellar form anyone can beat this team.
Not even a shot on goal in 45 minutes against Wolfsburg with over 60% ball possession.

Yeah, without Kostic in top form they are not all that good.

Leverkusen today.
Not expecting much from this game. Diaby, Wirtz and Schick are in top form at the moment.
Hopefully, we can at least make things hard for them.

Wow. 5th home victory in a row. 3:2.
Awesome game. Intensity was sick.
A win in Berlin next week might propel us way up in the standings. Gotta get something done away from home. Thats been the problem in recent weeks.

The race for the 4th CL spot is insanely competitive right now...only 3 points between positions 4 and 9.
I sure wouldn't mind Mainz taking that spot. Not gonna happen, though. Expecting Leipzig will eventually pull away.
Positions 5 to 7 I'd rather avoid. We don't have the depth for EL/ECL and you are not getting enough money for those games in the middle of nowhere. Not lucrative enough.

Amazing. Takes 5 minutes to make a VAR decision and the decision is still blatantly wrong.

Whoscored thinks Nico Schlotterbeck is the best centerback in Europe so far this season (with fellow Freiberg gk Flekken rated high too). What do you folks think of him? Is his form more due to system or him? Could he scale into a starter for a continental team?

He is good.
Struggles a bit with quicker, smaller strikers.
Think he ends up at Dortmund.

Hear me out…
I’m starting to believe that one of Windhorst‘s extremely rich friends is paying Bobic twice as much as Hertha do to do the worst job possible as a kind of joke. Like, when he meets Windhorst next time in 2023, he just laughs and yells "GOTCHA!" while Hertha are desperately trying to avoid relegation in the 2. BL.
Unrealistic? Maybe. But hiring Korkut and Magath in the same season in 2021/2022 doesn’t sound any less insane to me.

Has Magath already build a hill for training purposes at Hertha‘s facilities?
Bobic has done a poor job I agree. Lets not forget that it was Preetz who blew all of Windhorsts money for lackluster strikers, though.
Hertha probably would be in a so much better position if they had spend just 15 mil. of the triple digit millions received into two new FBs/wingers. They have nobody who creates chances. Buying all these strikers who will not get the ball in the penalty area because there is nobody who is delivering them the assist was absolutely pointless.
And of course a competent coach could male a difference as well.

4-0 victory over Bielefeld
Penalty streak now at 36 scored in a row
Zentner signed new contract until 2025
Stach nominated for the German NT (first Mainz player in a while)

Beat Bayern 3-1. Could’ve been 6-1 had we converted on the chances.
Making up for the poor performances the game before.

Really boasting about beating a Bayern side that won the Bundesliga the prior week?

It seems you like Liverpool.
You should have some more respect towards Mainz.
If Mainz didn't spent years developing this Klopp guy, Liverpool would probably be in position to watch ManCity with binoculars right now having appointed legendary Everton head coach Steven Gerrard or even worse Frank Lampard.
Doesn't matter whether Bayern had nothing to play for. Mainz had nothing to play for either.
Game starts at 0-0 and Bayern was outplayed. Lost 3-1 and Mainz hit post/crossbar another 4 times.
I just said Mainz team made up for the poor performances in the past weeks. How is that boasting?

Point being Bayern players were more concerned with their trip to Ibiza than a contest against Mainz.

Congrats to Mainz for showing up, though.
By the way, Gerrard played for Liverpool, not Everton.

Yeah, I confused Gerrard and Lampards coaching careers here. Make that Aston Villa coaching legend Steven Gerrard. Marginally better than Everton coaching legend Frank Lampard.

Just going to interject here for a second since you are discussing something related to Aston Villa. Gerrard since taking over has actually statistically been alright, he sits in 9th in the league.
The actual table is very deceiving right now because we can win our next two and depending on results can go from 13th to 9th/10th. We still have two games in hand too!
I’m not the biggest fan of him being our manager however, he’s actually done decent considering he doesn’t have 'his' team yet.
