German Football 2017/18

[carlito'sway]

Dortmund 4-0 at HT. Ends up 4-4.

Epic comeback from Schalke. Huge disappointment for BVB to squander a 4 goals lead against their historic rival.

Still have nightmares about that game ffs, I mean it was incredible. The first half was some of the best football I've seen from us and then we just completely collapsed following Diaby's dismissal. The strange thing is tho is that Fabregas played a brilliantly played ball to Van Persie and he missed just after the Tiote equalisier so we very easily could have made it 5-4. Up until that moment in that season I thought we had a great chance of winning the title, that match was a gentle reminder of what we were capable of in terms of shooting ourselves in the foot when things we going well.

I'll never ever forget this match. I still remember telling my gooner pal who was with me at the time that it had been a long time since we could sit back and watch a 2nd 1/2 in a relaxed mood. Little did I know what was ****ing coming head on at me. The last 20 minutes was a blur. However, this was another day when, regardless of the capitulation, we got shafted by the officials. The two penalties were a bit of a joke & Tiote's goal will go down in folklore - still the only goal I think he scored for the Toons.

Yeah,it was like yesterday,but almost 7 years ago ffs.That **** Barton should get red card for tackle on Diaby and second penalty was big joke.I needed about 5 days to recover from that draw.It was amazing football in first half really,RVP was on fire that season.

5 days, I'm scarred for life M8!

Edit: Wasn't that the TheoVanNasriGas era? Thought that was a great moniker for our fearsome 4some. Shame that the really talented 3 out of that 4 ****ed us over and left.

,I was much more sensitive to our defeats and failures than nowadays.

Actually so was I - thank God I may say. However, that day is one day that is a stain on my life as a Gooner!

Stöger has just been fired by Köln ffs . Don't think he's a bad coach but still a weird signal to players and fans.

 

[al-Ustaadh]

Well... that was expected.

Dortmund bosses probably didn't want to fire Bosz until next summer as they couldn't find a good replacement, but as the things were going they decided to hire anyone.

 

[GeorgiaGunner]

BVB simply can't defend.

Leverkusen v/s Bayern...great game.

Leverkusen practically kicking Bayern all over the pitch.

Ribery ain't dead yet! Toujours le craque.

Pretty impressing debut for Sancho.. Looks a great talent and it's nice seeing english players going abroad to develop too.

He's better than that Eritrean/Swedish lad Isak. City will buy him back with £100M in a season or two.
