I have high hopes for Tolisso, who has become a crucial player.

Was not good yesterday and got hurt again. Not sure the severity yet. Very injury prone.

Alaba has been God awful this year. No way he gets a contract like Lewandowski. Kimmich should be the highest paid player on this team in my opinion.

FCB is working on a Goretzka extension as we speak. I’m sure a Kimmich extension is in the offing, despite currently being signed through 2023.

Not good for Dortmund. Was wondering why he was not in Dortmund lineup today.

Dortmund's Haaland ruled out for weeks with muscle injury

Borussia Dortmund top striker Erling Haaland will be sidelined with a muscle injury for the rest of the year, coach Lucien Favre said on Wednesday, after the 20-year-old Norwegian picked up an injury in training.

They could’ve used him against Lazio today. Hope he gets healthy soon. He’s exciting to watch.

I like that but don't rush. But they really do need him. Most important player on the team. Now that Haaland out that diminishes the Dortmund threat.

Berlin derby today should be good.

Anyone else getting technical difficulties for ESPN+ trying to watch all the Bundesliga games right now? I pay for this shit.

Red card took out Union. Max Kruse was a good signing for Union though.

Yes!

Not happy with ESPN+ this morning. Only the Mainz game was available for me. It wasn't a bad game, but still.

Kruse has been pretty damn good for them. I found it odd he left the BuLi for Turkey (I think without looking it up), in the first place.

Great first half in the Bayern Leipzig game. That Bayern defense sucks badly. Too slow. Counters and playing the high line are killing them this season. I am actually happy Javi out and Musialla in. Can't say one thing good thing about the Bayern defense at all.

Not a good start to the second half. No defense.

Boa and Sule staring at each other on the Forsberg goal. wtf.

MrFlyingV · Dec 5, 2020

That was a very entertaining game. If not for Coman, Musialla, and Muller BAyern would have been dead. I love Musialla. His footwork and mental pretty damn good for 17 years old.

Schalke are such dog shit this year it's unbelievable.

Horrid!!! Dortmund looking just average without Haaland now. Reyna had a nice goal yesterday.

Bayern vs Leverkusen for the lead before xmas break? They play each other in last game before break. Leverkusen a little easier schedule until then. Bayern has Union Berlin and Wolfsburg before the Leverkusen game. Who would have thunk Union Berlin would be a tough game, but look at them, 6th in the table.

I think it would be awesome if Wolfsburg held on for a spot in Europe. I think Gladbach will continue to move up. Gladbach is a really good team.
