That was necessary with 2 points out of 3 games.

Top, top player

Really handy looking players they've got though. Robben one side Ribery the other, Tymo in the middle with van Bommel, maybe Schweinsteiger?

Never rated him to be honest

Schweinsteigers time is over. He is a real german - a tournament player. In the regular season he plays bad, in big tournaments like WC or Euro he shows some real good performances, thats it. He is totally overrated in my opinion.

Tomorrow there's Mönchengladbach v Mainz on the schedule. I think ESPN will broadcast from 19.30 (english time), so turn in if you've got some time.

Certainly will. In the absence of St Pauli & Rostock, I've adopted Monchengladbach this year. They were a top side when I was a kid (1977 v Liverpool) but what I didnt know was that between 1968 & 1978 only them & Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga. Wonder how long it will be before they win it again?

Yes the golden '70s. I wasn't born then, but in that decade Borussia was one of the best club teams in Europe. 5x german champion, 2x Uefa Cup, 1x german cup winner, almost world cup and European Cup of Champions winner. Since that final in 1978 against Liverpool there's a big fan friendship between us and them. After Hillsborough our Supporters donated 21.000 Mark to the families that lost someone at that day. Since then Liverpool supporters come to Gladbach for one match in may and Gladbach supporters travel to Anfield during winterbreak in Germany. In Youtube you can find some videos about the last time Liverpool fans were in our stadium:

Watching this on ESPN (free till Monday night for Virgin Media subscribers). Uneventful 1-0 lead to Moenchengladbach, although very impressed by their midfielder Marx. From the 45 minutes I've watched, his marauding and passing would compliment Muamba's ability to break up play well.

Back from the stadium...

Boring game, but important is to score twice and get the points. I can't say how the atmosphere, after the deciding goal by Marco Reus, was brought to you on tv, but that's what support in Gladbach used to be once.

You want to sort out your away form pal.

VFLsmonan · Post by **VFLsmonan** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 4:12 pm

Are you talking about Gladbach? We never get more than 10 away points since 2000. That's one reason why we never manage Eurocup qualification.

This season is not much different. In Bochum we played 3-3 after a great first half and a lead of 3-0, after that a 0-3 lost in Bremen and now this unnecessary 0-1 defeat in Nürnberg, because we were the better time.

VFLsmonan · Post by **VFLsmonan** » Sat Sep 19, 2009 5:51 pm

Fu.ck everything... we lost 2:4 after 2:0 lead (3 goals by Hoffenheim in last 5 minutes). It's just so sad too loose that way.

other results:

Bochum - Mainz (Sa.) 2:3
Hannover - Dortmund 1:1
Stuttgart - Köln 0:2
Bayern - Nürnberg 2:1

Who scored for Bayern?

VFLsmonan · Post by **VFLsmonan** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 9:47 pm

Olic & Van Buyten

Next week Saturday 15.30 Dortmund - Schalke. Today Leverkusen - Bremen played 0-0 in a uneventful game, while Freiburg won 4-0 in Berlin against Hertha.

Bochum fired their coach after 4 points in 6 games.

Thinking of going to Dortmund for my birthday weekend - how easy is it to get tickets for that massive terraced end?
