Grosskreutz goal has dortmund leading 1-0.

HIT THE POST. That was close, he had a shot earlier too, kagawa. Very close. BVB could've had 3 easily. Great starter this. BVB starting from where they left off.

Their pressing is fantastic.
Hamburg don't have a clue how to keep possession longer than a couple of seconds.

Quite sure he'll head to Bayern, once Heynckes is either fired or too old.

Wenger could've been doing the same as klopp is doing there. Just that the millionaires and the sheikhs have made life in EPL a lot tougher. And also ferguson is insane.

Completely disagree with you there, the chemistry at Dortmund is incredible and the whole team is behind Klopp, he has instilled that winning mentality

Klopp is a genius but so is wenger. That's all. No arguing over this.

The game's pretty much decided now, new signing perisic on! Gundogan's done a great job today, shown good attitude and he'll make em defensively stronger too.

Not sure it's in his armoury though. Ferguson has adapted much better and his teams have defended better and better over the years.

Agreed, United have coped brillianty because of their improved defensive prowess. Vidic for 7 million has to go down as one of the greatest bargains in EPL history.

I agree, that £7m plus the £2m they paid for VDS took them to another level

Yep i agree, EPL has proved to be too hard for wenger even though i'd say he's done very well overall with the club, taken it to a new level with respect to the structure of the club. His philosophy, the constraints, some more constraints that he imposes upon himself, all add to him not winning enough trophies at arsenal, also his stubborn self, he wouldn't adapt and rather try to prove his way is the right way. What i meant was that he'd have done very very well in a league like italy or germany or france, would have won a lot more and with style as well.

How could I forget about VDS? I was literally shocked when he moved to Fulham. Granted, he had flopped at Juventus, but he was a proven world class goalkeeper. For United to then pick him for that price was just sad. Especially, when we had to contend with Lehmann's antics, as great as they occasionally were, and bloody Almunia.

Didn't get to see this unfortunately. Where's the best place to get English streams of Bundesliga games?

Was this match not on television in Britain? If so that's crazy.
The scenes at the end gave me goosebumps, the sincerity of their joy and spontaneous togetherness is very rare to see. When Hamburg were getting frustrated they weren't rolling on the floor in agony or reacting to the rash challenges either. I think they are now officially my second team.
The price of upgrading to HD was payed back with interest in only 90 short minutes.
