***Bundesliga Thread***

Where can I watch the final?

Thanks for smashing Villa so I can switch to this game.

 

Aubameyang scores and does a patented back-flip

 

Reus misses a sitter and then Luis Gustavo ties it

 

You gotta save that, still a nice goal from KDB.

 

hamburg will be in the Bundesliga for eternity

 

Wolfsburg Bayern today

 

Can't believe De Bruyne missed the open goal after that move past Neuer

 

So Douglas Costa is pretty rad. Robben esque goal today.

Watching Hamburg defecate on the pitch every week is going to take years off my life. The club doesn't even have young German talent to hang your hopes on.

 

Thoughts on the Fox's Buli debut.

- You are telling me that Fox couldn't get a Deutschland Sky dime piece to host this? Really? I like Joy, even with his weird accent, but more in analysis

- Wynalda was fine, and I can deal with him because he actually played German football in a period where American soccer players in Europe were black rhinos. Respect the hell out of that.

- I'm massively disappointed Fox didn't follow NBC's lead and get their own broadcast team, using the Bundesliga magazine and former Gol TV play by play voice that the Bundesliga provides, along with Christian Ziege who provided fuck all analysis while mumbling, is absurd. It is really noticeable when you flip back and forth between NBC and Fox. How hard would it be to get a real PBP announcer and Ballack as the color? I don't know how Fox watched ESPN's coverage and thought Lalas was a must hire while missing out on Ballack.

 

Dortmund clicking. Beautiful cross by Schelmzer.

 

Fuck Fox for putting the Saturday 12:30 slot of opening weekend on fucking FS2

 

That sucks. It's one of the few games this season not on the subscription channel for us.

 

what a break by BVB 3-0

 

I have the channel but pretty much no carrier has it in HD

 

That was a great counter and very unselfish of PEA

 

My god. Dortmund playing amazing. Gundogan with a beauty pass to spring Aubameyang who set up Mkhitarayan for a tap in.

 

that's why I hate that Fox has CL and hope its remedied by WC 18 or way sooner.

 

Yep I hope someone steals CL from them and have plenty of worries about the 2018

 

Feels like Dortmund can just score as many as they want today, just completely one sided

 

Gladbach better pick it up for champions' league. This is embarrassing.

 

Watching the pregame on fs1. They're treating like people
Have never heard of soccer or Germany before. Explaining every tiny thing about both.

I understand why, but p funny

 

I noticed the same thing yesterday. NBC also did the same thing the first year they had the EPL.

 

Boateng just lost his mind and gets sent off

Neuer saves the penalty though.

 

pep out

 

gotze goat and lewa blows it, muller off the post from 2 feet

 

gotze goat

 

Douglas Costa is kinda fast.

 

Holy shit at the tackle from Klien. Almost broke I think Holtby's leg

 

Hamburgers stadium and fans deserve a better team

 

And kits

 

Hamburg! Let's get 15th this year!

 

sooo, might be moving to Germany in January to march time frame. I'd love to get into the bundesliga.

I grew up playing soccer and still play so i understand the game...was wondering if you fine gents could give me a quick run down on the league. understand FC bayern's line up is pretty stacked but pretty ignorant on rest of the teams. I am familiar with the some of the big names in the sport (mostly thanks to fifa) but not where they currently play.

I'll be 20 minutes away from mainz and 25 minutes or so away from eintracht frankfurt. are they any good? who should i pledge my allegiance to? want to go to to a fair amount of games. also, i'll be there for 3 years so if one isn't as good now but has a promising future I wouldn't mind getting in on that...

thanks for any help. hope to post in this thread fairly regularly once i move...

 

Darmstadt would be your best bet for the genuine German football experience but will be down after this year. I would 100 percent go to a game there in the Spring for the experience. Frankfurt has the bigger stadium and the city would be fun to hang around in afterwards. I suggest you get membership now, remember the Germany clubs have to be 51 percent owned by the fans unless you are a factory club.

I would choose Frankfurt, they are a founding Bundesliga club and have spent a vast majority of their time in the top flight. Neither will win a trophy while you are there but Mainz and Frankfurt will both be a hell a lot of fun. Might come down to which club you can get a season ticket, I'd email both clubs and see who sets you up the best.

Calhanoglu opened up his free kick account for the season. If reddit is to be believed he now has 22 free kick goals in his career and is only 21.

 

Bayern decided it was a good idea to hire a coach whose constructed team they beat 7-0 on aggregate the previous year and have since become so Latin, ungerman, and progressively worse since the 2013 peak that the media and populace are calling for the head of a league winning demigod

 

Nice finish by Herrmann

 

I'm coming around to your line of thinking of Pep sabotaging Germany.

 

Bayern is playing with 3 defenders, 1 who is used in central midfield a lot and the other who is used more as a winger. This should be fun.

 

Hoping for lots of goals in this one

 

Great ball from Xabi the CB

 

Costa is insane. What a signing.
