I hope and think i wasnt misunderstood here - w/out any doubt Milan was both dominating and innovating back then, and thus like 10 years ahead of all the other teams. But this is 20 years ago and now they would be (from this comparison) 10 years behind from todays teams. And i also think im...

I guess its pointless then ... I mean its good to be nostalgic, but thats going too far for me ... One last example: prior to the 90ies WCs, german televisoin used to show games from the past during the nights. We watched all these games from the 70ies and 60ies ... and were shocked of what we...

Being 36 years old i am in fact not only old enough to see them play, but i actually did so regularly. But i somehow feel like a lot of ppl actually havent, and instead have a wrong understanding (at least from my pov) what happened back then. Now dont get me wrong: Sacchis Milan side...

Just a hint: posting statements like this isnt very smart when you dont back it up with arguments. That said i have to ask you how old you are? Let me guess ... 13?

Are you serious? What Sacchis Milan side did 20 years ago with positioning and zonal marking is what basically every 1st and 2nd division team nowadays does - that innovation is now standard and common practice. This said Milan of the late 80ies wouldnt stand a bare chance at Barca. They would...

Man, i dont remember that football was so boring back in these days ... i mean maybe that video isnt fully represantative, but you can only see goals and chances from set pieces and crosses from the sideline there ... except that one goal from Milans counter attack after Napolis missed header...

I cant really evaluate Granero good, b/c i havent seen him playing that much. Now Sahin had a certainly good season - but his first really good season in his career. His main contribution comes from his playmaking as basically, he is doing in Dortmund what Xavi does for Barca, Xabi for RM...

What is better: a 1992 Super Nintendo or a 2010 Nintendo wii?

At least i didnt read about that (but im not reading every newspaper ...). Zorc (dortmunds managing director) told the press that Sahins future its not up them anymore. Its said that Sahin has a buyout claus of 10M for foreign clubs. Sahin is expected to reveal his future in a press conference...

I wouldnt like Sahin leaving Dortmund now. They seem to be on the edge on becoming another force in germany and maybe europe, but a Sahin departure could hurt that (although their biggest talent is set to stay for several more years fortunately). And it would really surprise me if Sahin would...

You could read in german media today that Lucas Barrios told Radio Marca that Sahin already signed for Madrid.

Solid at most i think. I generally like him a lot for his good physics and his attitude, but he looks like running out of gas lately. And with Masch around we get that too. Imo he will be leaving if Cesc comes in, b/c he will be taking over his tactical spot. Besides i still like a Plan B...

LvG got fired last night after Bayerns unnecessary draw in Nürnberg (bad goalie mistake) and Robbens sent off AFTER the final whistle.

I dont like taking risks, hence i want to get Cesc in. I still have high hopes for Thiago though. Btw, this common Anti-Cesc attitude can be seen at other clubs too. Very much reminds me of the Anti-Neuer campaign of some of the (ultra-) supporters at Bayern. Similarly idiotic to have antipathy...

Inter is only marginally stronger than Schalke and the revenge factors makes up for it. I would even go so far that a victory over Schalke is less likely than over Inter, but you know ... 95% is lower than 98% ;)

Actually van Gaal said that a club like bayern needs two strong GKs, like they currently have in Kraft and Butt. Then he hints that Butts contract runs out and says that Neuer could be a choice as the 2nd strong GK, w/out setting any ranking of the two. You could however read between the lines...

Indeed the probably best defender in the BL so far, although not really dortmunds biggest star (there are still Sahin and Kagawa, maybe Barrios or the young gun Götze). Bayern also surely miss him currently, there were also rumors that he could come back (its said that he has a buyout clause of...

the legend himself: kQUJfpcSRQ0 and sth from the dark ages of german football history ... nDEfaonoQvg ok, they aint singing themselves ... but at least they had some fun there ... esp. Klinsmann, which is absolutely no coincidence ;)

I would like to add Valeri Lobanovski here ...

There are a two things in the usual Cesc discussions i will never understand ... 1. Why do we deperately need a full 1:1 copy of Xavi in his absence - i.e. why would it fail with a player of similar general quality and style, that might interprete his role a bit different? 2. Regardless of...
