Sure, but i think it's more that having a work rate like they have might not be that special in the bundes..
I mean, personally I think it must be a curse because they've controlled most bundes games aswelll just seriously unlucky..
sorry if I offended you m8 btw

nah maybe at the start but these last two or three loses the players have been super motivated cos of the poor league form
it's a combination of injuries to key players, woeful finishing and individual mistakes
plus they're playing against teams happy to sit back and dortmund are most effective transitioning from defence to attack and attacking with speed rather than trying to break down a deep defence
they should sort it out soon enough but 4th place will be a struggle. bayern next wk should be interesting
at least gundogans back
on the subject of the bundesliga, was impressed by gladbach this weekend sharp on the counter, organised in defence fully deserved the point

Suarez not on a Ballon d'Or shortlist
and Klinnsman is on the short list for managers over Rodgers

how is that suprising. suarez bit someone in the world cup.
rogers has done fuck all. why on earth would he be included
klinsmann is an odd one but he overachieved in the world cup and that seems to have increased footballs popularity in the us so an understandable inclusion

rodgers took a 7th place team to challenging for the title on the last day. Klinnsman took an average USMNT and did exactly what everyone expected him to do

If you really believe that you must be blaming your current form on him?
How long was Suarez banned for? I think the time he spent out (bans, not injured) and the fact he bit someone its not totally surprising why he was left out. FIFA are always doing anything to improve their self image.

im more surprised that lvg is on there than anything.
i wouldnt have rodgers on there or klinsman.
thats hardly enough to make him a nominee for manager of the year. look at the shit youre in this season. he lost his best player then spent the money on loads of average players. you only made 2nd due to how shit the teams around you were playing last season (utd, arsenal and to some extent chelsea)
