  1. Zorc is on fire. We just signed Emre Mor from Danish side Nordsjaelland for an estimate 4 m €. 18 years old and already nominated for Turkey's Euro squad. Exciting young prospect. Huge upside. Contract until 2021.
  2. We got Rode from Bayern for about 15 m € today and Guerreiro from Lorient will probably sign after Portugal's next friendly for about 12 m € as well. Rode can certainly help us out. A little bit too expensive in my opinion though. Guerreiro will be another good piece of business. The first time Schmelzer will have someone to challenge his spot since Dede left in 2011.
  3. Yeah, he should have left Barca earlier. Tough to battle for a spot there. He can play a nice ball, but he's not very physical. We played with 3 CBs for a couple of games this year. I could imagine him in that system very well. Better opportunities to hide his weaknesses.
  4. Seems as if we'll get Marc Bartra from Barca for 8m €. Nice value deal.
  5. Gündogan to Man City confirmed by both clubs. German media say 25 m € + bonus payments.
  6. Final Euro roster Germany: GK: Manuel Neuer, Bernd Leno, Marc-Andre ter Stegen Defense: Jerome Boateng, Emre Can, Jonas Hector, Benedikt Höwedes, Mats Hummels, Shkodran Mustafi, Antonio Rüdiger Midfield/Striker: Julian Draxler, Mario Götze, Sami Khedira, Joshua Kimmich, Toni Kroos, Thomas Müller, Mesut Özil, Lukas Podolski, Leroy Sane, Andre Schürrle, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Julian Weigl, Mario Gomez No Rudy, Bellarabi, Brandt and no Reus. According to Löw, he can barely walk a straight line. Weird that it's an argument to keep Reus out, but the same applies to Schweinsteiger and he's in. All in all 2 Dortmund players nominated. Shows Löw's southern Germany bias once again. Sadly, the roster is still too talented to have no success. Can't believe that wanker will go down in the books as one of Germany's most successful managers.
  7. Christian Pulisic just became the youngest goal scorer in USMNT's history.
  8. True that. Hope Mkhitaryan stays. He's more important to us than Auba. German media is starting to lose their s*** because of the drawn out negotiations. But his agent is Mino Raiola. So that's kind of normal.
  9. I don't know. He's a good striker, but not irreplaceable. For the right price. Why not? Still, I would be very surprised if that's true. Nothing really hinted to him leaving. Oblak was outstanding today. But he should seriously question his strategy in penalties. That was pretty easy for Real's players.
  10. Wow. That comes as a surprise. Maybe Real or Barca came calling. Otherwise I couldn't explain his sudden change of mind. 70m+ € and I would be fine.
  11. So, reportedly Liverpool expected to sign Götze this summer for 25 m €. But a couple of days ago he told German media he will stay at Bayern and look for his chance under Ancelotti. However, Bayern's president Rummenigge suggested that Götze was told he was not in their plans for next season by both club and new coach. But well, he earns about 12 m € per year. Quite a fun story as a Dortmund fan, to be honest.
  12. English press is very... how shall I put it... creative when it comes to transfer rumours anyway. Oh. Btw. Several German media outlets are reporting now Gündogan to Man City is all but official. 25m € + some bonus payments. Glad this is finally over.
  13. Auba? Yeah. Sure. He can try. Half of his war chest will be empty after that. Otherwise we won't give him away.
  14. No red card Second time Ribery pulled something like that in a final against us and wasn't sent off. Son of a b****
  15. DFB-Pokal final today. 8 pm CET. Hope we can go out of this season with at least one trophy. It was just way too good to go trophyless. Though I don't have a good feeling about it. We looked like amateurs in the first match and were too afraid in the second.
  16. Löw had some strange surprises in his nominations as well (Rudy instead of Durm, Schmelzer or Ginter for example). Plus the usual suspects who just make it every time, yet no one knows why (e.g. Podolski). Also he nominated players who were injured for long stretches of the season and are not back at 100% (Schweinsteiger, Khedira). Full 27-man squad:
  17. We just signed Ousmane Dembélé from Rennes for 15m €.
  18. So, I would let Christian Pulisic down if I chose to watch J League?
  19. MLS way is easier to watch in Germany. Eurosport (Free TV!) shows a couple of matches live per weekend. I have no idea though why they bought that package or if there is anyone in Germany who watches it.
  20. Hummels to Bayern for 38m € confirmed. C**t Also, Bayern snagged Renato Sanches away for 35m €. Next 5 Bundesliga titles to Bayern also confirmed. Wankers. I think I'm gonna start watching MLS now.
  21. Gündogan out for season & Euro. Dislocated kneecap. Curios to know if Man City still wants him now.
  22. Kaiserslautern 1998. Won the league as a promoted team.
  23. Pretty much the outcome I expected. I hope we can beat them in the cup final. Going without a title in this fantastic season would be so disappointing.
