Pretty much, was pretty shocked that they're that bad, no threat at all. Pub I was in sprayed everyone with champagne and put on the Ghostbusters theme after the final whistle and everyone was singing "who you gonna call? HUNBUSTERS!"

I must say I've missed the Old Firm

[hubb]

HENKE too such a badman



Rangers where pretty good when i was a kid tho

mini Laudrup >>>>

And I hate that Graversen didnt make it work in celtic ...def an idiot but such a lol player

[ehbes]

I must say I've missed the Old Firm

bet you dont miss having to actually compete for the title every year

Dortmund bottom of Bundesliga...

Surprised some of the players weren't trying to jump ship in the transfer window...

[hubb]

yeah but it is a special club in that sence tbf but yeah

shame

[ehbes]

Real shame i still hold on to the hope of them staying up

[ehbes]

Also, Coutinho has been amazing as of late

[hubb]

[ehbes]

Read somewhere that since he signed in January 2013, no one has created more scoring chances in the league.

[hubb]

just need a proper system that utilises having both coutinho and sterling in a way where both gets to influence play and not run in the same spots

same with balo and sturridge eventually

that kind of pairing up can be really good but usually clubs just get rid of one
like tevez and rooney at united

[ehbes]

Ideally we have Coutinho behind Sturridge and and Sterling playing off the left side of Sturridge.

[hubb]

ideally imo
balo and stu will become the new cole and york(sorry for mentioning urinited)
and then have the two playmakers behind them and then two bulldogs behind them and four in the back again.

going to look like a grime video when they attack


the cue is in how balo has got the ian rush stache going now

Blaze hot fire when I'm 'ere

Real shame

Not at all, funny imo. If any of the big clubs in England were bottom of the prem in Feb, most people would be loving it, never understood the Dortmund-fetish that seems to be going around.

[Forum]

I don't care either way what happens to them, other than the fact Klopp keeps being linked with Arsenal

[hubb]

the sold out stadium and their supporters

the way they deal with the economy and being a working club

and the way they play imo, like when they play real madrid two years in a row and it doesn't seem to phase them too much

stuff like that is pretty unique and then theres all the great players most of which come from a specific talent school and a different kind of trainer with a 'fun' attitude

but yeah ofcourse there's stories to be told from all clubs... i get why this one appeals to a lot of people

If any of the big clubs in England were bottom of the prem in Feb, most people would be loving it

yeah no doubt

[garethom]

I dunno man, I get all of that, but nobody cared about them in the years where they were shit. Just a bandwagon thing IMO, acting cool, cultured and knowledgeable cos they're a european team, and it's not like you just picked the best one, so you can pretend you're not bandwagoning

yes but the prem isn't a 2 team league. If dortmund go down then you pen in Bayern for the title before the season even starts.

Ofcourse there's also that going on, like there's always a group of fans where that kind of play appeals to them who's ready to jump ship whenever ajax or barca or whoever dips or changes direction slightly... but it's pretty unique and properly 'convincing' to have this many worldclass players comming up at the same time and from a slightly smaller club, who weren't all just barca youth academy rejects or similar. There's Hummels, Gøtze, Gündogan, Piszceck, Lewandowski, and then there's the players like Reus and Mhkitaryan and so on whos on the radar of the biggest clubs having just played a season under Klopp.

[hubb]

I'm definitely a lot like what Gareth is describing lol

I really like Roma, southhampton and Leverkusen this season
