I feel bad for Leicester, I really hoped they'd get Bayern or Real. I mean, they'll crash out in this round anyway, so I hoped their fans would at least get to see a top class team. Instead they get a team which isn't a "big name", but which will still crush them. Too bad for them.
Also has to suck for Arsenal. Seems like they always get either Bayern or Barcelona in that round, even when they finish 1st in the group.
Ya thats rewlly unlucky
I hope they make it through just to have the chance for a madrid or something

I was looking at the 32 left and its not a strong group this year
I really think spurs or United win it, they are the top 2 betting favorites snd the rest of the top 5 is Roma, shakhtar, and zenit
Former Manchester United and Manchester City striker Tevez is on the verge of joining Gus Poyet's side and is being offered £615,000 ($760,632) a week to make the move, the sources said.
3-0 Bayern at half. It was fun while it lasted thinking RB Leipzig could actually win the league.
While the first half has gone well in Bayern's favour I hardly think the League is over.
Winning the League out of the gates is awesome, look at the EPL, Leicester were a hell of a ride but they came back down to earth pretty hard.
That being said, the Bundesliga is still up for grabs. Frankfurt and Dortmund and Leipzig arent out of it by any means, we havent even gotten to the end stage of the season where Bayern notoriously stumble.

It's the mention of Dortmund and Frankfurt that makes me cringe. I mean, come on. Dortmund are back 12 points already and are inconsistent as hell. And Frankfurt ... those guys are used to battle against relegation, they aren't going to come close to finishing top 4 or even. Enjoying Bayern be successful is one thing, pretending that league is ultra-close is another.
I still enjoy Hoffenheims team the most this year. Too bad two of their players are already pretty much confirmed to sign for Bayern in the summer (Niklas Süle and Sebastian Rudy) and I assume their coach, Julian Nagelsmann, is going there at some point too.

Ha! That actually made me chuckle.

hats off to Wolfsburg ... never thought they'd find two stupid enough clubs to pay a ransom and take Schürrle and Draxler off their hands.
Dortmund are signing Ömer Toprak in the summer, according to Bild. Not surprising, there were already a lot of rumours about that transfer in the past summer.
I know Dortmund had big debt problems from the 90s, butthey absolutely pack their massive stadium every week. How long, if ever, until they have the financial muscle that Bayern has?
