    20M + add-ons so not a terrible price for you guys.  I guess that means Balerdi out on loan?

     

    He's definitely surplus to requirements at Bayern with Pavard and Lucas coming in but I figured Boateng would leave before him.  He might still but who knows.

    Price would be alright, yes.

     

    Toprak + one of the young guys out. Could be Balerdi on loan.

     

    I don't know if Hummels would be the man I would let go first at Bayern. He is still the best CB in build-up at Bayern. Midfield next year won't be any better in build-up. I think it's a weird decision from Bayern. But as a Dortmund fan I'll take it.

  2. Third looks best and I never really liked that design. But they nailed that this time. Still won't buy it as I much prefer the blue and green colour scheme.

     

    The regulars look pretty decent but a bit lacking. I suppose I still have to get used to the Vancouver not being on there.

     

    The heritage one... umm... no, thank you.

  3. Coincidentally Götze published an article on The Player's Tribune yesterday:

    For me, hell is not being able to play football. It’s really that simple.

    For most of my life, I didn’t face any big hardships. Everything was smooth, and I got to live my dream at a very young age. I walked out in front of the Yellow Wall at 17. I played under two of the greatest managers in football. I scored in a World Cup final at 22.

    To be honest, I was so young that it didn’t really sink in, what I was living. I didn’t appreciate it like you might imagine.

    And then I got sick. And everything nearly went away.

    But let’s not start there. Let’s start with a good memory. We’ll start with Mr. Klopp.

    "Mario Gotze smile for the world!" 

     

    World Cup game winning hero to the list of where are they now?

    Two years ago he was out for more than half a year because it was discovered he was suffering from a metabolic disease. He still isn't his old self yet (probably never will be) but he has been one of our best players this season. Certainly the most improved player. While he barely played at the beginning of the season he was pretty much guaranteed a starting spot during the second half of the season.

    Anybody have any info on the starting goalies for the Germany/USA game? Is Grubauer still out?

     

    I really thought that Germany was legit until last nights thrashing at the hands of Canada's 5th tier team, but would be happy to see them upset the Americans.

    Treutle was in net I think. Grubauer is still injured.

     

    GOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLL!!!!

    In: Schulz, Brandt, and one of van de Beek/Ziyech?

     

    Out:  Dahoud/Weigl, Toljan, Toparak?

    Actually, forgot about Thorgan Hazard as an "in".

    Something like that, yes. Brandt and Hazard for a combined 50-60m € would be amazing on its own.

     

    Out as well: Schürrle and maybe Philipp. Guerreiro might be a candidate as well (PSG interested?)

  7. Oh well. We played our third best season of all time in the Bundesliga and it still wasn't enough. Bayern played a ridiculous second half. Kudos to them.

     

    The best thing about this season is that we are 43 points ahead of Sch*lke. :frantic:

     

    Now I hope some of the rumoured transfers come true. Heja BVB!

    ... hope Seider´s Injury is not to Serious. 

     

    He´s has played well for a 18 Years old so far. 

    Looked like a concussion, sadly. I was very impressed with him as well. Very poised for his age.

    this will be an exciting group until lthe end.

     

    Germany still has to face the big ones USA , Canada and Finland while Slovakia has to beat Denmark , France and Great Britain to keep the chance for the Quarter Finals.

     

    Not sure if Germany is allready Save because of the Win vs. Slovakia. 

    Pretty much, I think. In theory Denmark could overtake us. But they would need at least 7 points in their remaining games against Slovakia, Canada, Finland and the US. So highly unlikely.

    there is some fire between germany and slovakia.

     

    germany lead 1 -0  , then slovakia uses a 5 on 3 , 5 on 4 PP for 2 goals . 

     

    2-1 slovakia now 

    The PPs for the Slovaks were questionable at best. Offside before the first penalty. And Panik should've gotten 2 minutes as well.
