I was just reading about that, he sounds like a player.

It's hard to believe that BVB have fallen apart like this. A regression was certainly expected after losing so many quality players, but nothing like this. I still think they should stick with Klopp. He's been too good the last few years to not give him a chance to turn this around.

Why have BVB struggled so much? Besides losing some good players? Injuries, lack of cohesion?

Unrest at Bayern:

Quote:
Dante joked that he's fed up with ongoing teasing in the Bayern Munich dressing room about Brazil's 7-1 World Cup semifinal defeat against Germany, and told teammate Thomas Muller to keep quiet or watch him "explode."

"The Germans [at Bayern] made a lot of jokes until the moment when I told them that now is not the time to make jokes about it," Dante said on the Brazilian TV show. "I told them that it was much more serious for us than they could imagine. We can joke about anything but not about this.

However, Dante made sure that his comments remained tongue-in-cheek, and called Muller, his teammate since the summer of 2012, a friend.

Oh man, that game was fantastic.

Wolfsburg currently up 3-1 on Bayern. 70th minute. I'm not watching but it sounds like Wolfsburg is completely bossing Bayern around the pitch

17 minutes in against Schalke and Boateng is sent off and gives away a penalty.

Fortunately Neuer saved the Pen and Gotze's been withdrawn for Dante.

shocking how Schalke have played with the man advantage. Firing Keller (who actually did a pretty good job there) to bring in di Matteo of all people is still a head scratcher. I know Keller was critized a lot, but I'm sure every Schalke fan would now take him back in a heart beat. You simply can't be a more negative and defensive coach than di Matteo. Horrible, horrible football.

Augsburg with 20 odd minutes there at the end as well with only 10 men, Dortmund couldn't put up any challenge until the last 5 minutes. They looked crazy nervous, probably will most likely stop the slide on the road, so much pressure at home to win.

the video of Hummels and Weidenfeller calming the fans is unreal

https://amp.twimg.com/v/02d9d879-b5a...c-5ba57a878830

you can see in their faces they are legitimately getting worried about relegation, which would set a club like that back years

Reus, Gundogan, Hummels, etc. would all be had for cut prices

just look at Juve, they made it back in to Serie A and CL quite quickly, but it took maybe 6-7 years to get back to the top of Europe

Reus has signed an extension with BVB through 2019. At least now if he gets sold Dortmund will be able to get fair value for him

Thats a crucial signing for Dortmund. If, and I still cant imagine this, if they go down they can sell him for a fortune.

It might be their best opportunity to completely reset the team if they have to.

still think the summer will be interesting, at the least he's showing good faith in getting BVB proper money

Suarez/Bale/Cavani all signed new deals in Jan/Feb and were gone in the summer
