    Already is the best league in the world in my eyes. :86:

    Hope he does stay. Was reading Munich's version of Marca and they seem to think that Gotze and Reus will be leading Bayern's front line for 2015 season. Apparently that's when Robben and Ribery's contracts expire. Frightening prospect.

    Beckenbauer came out last week though and said Bayern wouldn't be bidding for Reus as in his own words "That would be too many stars".

    Not a fan of Bayern myself so glad they are suffering without Bastian. However I do love him lol.

    For anyone interested, Lukas Podolski saved Cologne yesterday by earning them a 1-1 draw with Mainz.

    Thought Hertha were doing pretty decent considering it is their first year back in the top flight. Werder Bremen are such a * up team lol. Either they hammer other teams or they get pumped themselves. Always been the same when I have watched them. Very good going forward but shocking defenders. Although Raul was top class in that game from what I seen off it. Rolling back the years. Such a class act

    Schalke were phenomenal against Bremen. Raul is still a class act, he scored a hatty against Weder last year as well IIRC.

    The ref/linesman * up real bad in the Freiburg-Dortmund game. The idiot put his flag up for offside, then waited until the SCF defense had stopped playing before putting the flag down and allowing Dortmund to play on. The game was tied at 1-1 at the time so it was the turning point in the game.

    Gladbach-Munich on Friday. Hopefully BMG can win this one and really prove they are title contenders.They are undefeated at home this season so it could prove tough for Munich who are without the suspended Frank Ribery and injured Schweinsteiger. Reus limped off though at the weekend so he might not be fit.

    Ah, I just caught the end of the highlight show and it just said Friday. Think there are still cup games to be played before the winter brake though?

    I'm sure Gladbach are playing Schalke.

    * that's a good result. Looks like Gladbach are going to be a threat this year. Did Schalke play a strong side?

    Goetze has told German Newspaper "Bild" that it would be his dream to play in spain, and that he would prefer a mover there over england.

    Just watched the highlights. Game started off with Raul stamping on Reus' broken toe, was a sign of things to come. Huntelaar then got sent off for sarcastically clapping the ref.

    The Schalke keeper was woeful for both of Reus' goals. First one he completely miss judged it and the second he came racing off his line and failed to really connect with the ball.

    Jones(I think?) then got sent off for a wee scuffle with de Camargo. Then Fuchs has a go at Reus for his cocky finish. :56:

    Not a bad game, highlights where * 15 minutes.

    Madrid no doubt. Mourinho has told Ozil he's out if he doesn't start performing - Possible replacement?

    I can only see Goetze going to Real Madrid if he's heading to Spain..

    Dortmund got lucky in the Cup, beat Düsseldorf on penalties. One of Dortmund's players got sent off as well.

    Draw for the quarter final is:

    Stuttgart vs Bayern
    Hertha Berlin vs Gladbach
    Hoffenheim vs Greuther Furth
    Kiel vs Dortmund

    Good move for him. I'd rather him go to Dortmund than to Bayern because I feel his talents would be wasted at a club with so much star power.

    That's Marko Marin, Marcel Jansen and now Reus all snapped up by the big teams in recent years. Gutted for Gladbach.

    The fans are taking it well tbf, I think everyone knew he was either going to stay in the North Rhine or go to Bavaria.

    He'll be reunited with his best pal Großkreutz at Dortmund. You just have to wonder what was going on at Dortmund letting Großkreutz and Reus slip away down the leagues as youngsters for nothing.

    Wonder if the signing of Reus spells the end for Gotze? Hope not because they could be some force with the addition of Reus.

    .............Reus
    Gotze-Kagawa-Großkreutz

    What a front four! :100:
