Kritik Richtung Poldi

„Lukas ist ein außergewöhnlicher Spieler. Aber ich glaube, er wird in Köln so sehr gehyped, dass es schwer ist, regelmäßig Leistung abzurufen“, sagte BVB-Trainer Jürgen Klopp bei sky. „Mit seinem Potenzial muss er einer der besten Stürmer, wenn nicht der beste Stürmer in der Bundesliga sein – das ist er nicht. Das liegt daran, dass er seine Leistung nicht oft genug abruft. Und dann ist es uns zu teuer, für alle paar Wochen“, fügte Klopp deutlich hinzu.

Häme Richtung BVB

Mit den Worten des schwarz-gelben Coaches konfrontiert, antwortete Podolski sofort via Express: „Das sind ja reizende Aussagen von Herrn Klopp. Vielleicht ist er etwas traurig, weil ich ihm schon zwei Mal abgesagt habe“, konterte Podolski. „Andererseits hat er aber auch Recht: Ich bin dem BVB tatsächlich zu teuer, weil ja nun die Champions-League-Einnahmen fehlen. Wo sie doch als Gruppenletzter ausgeschieden sind, kann ich verstehen, dass sich das nicht lohnt“, sagte Podolski der Zeitung.

Klopp: "Godolski is a God, but he doesn't always call upon all his talent. - With all his talent and godliness he should be the best striker of the Bundesliga, but in his graciousness he allows others to have that title. He is too expensive for us to only bless us with his best every few weeks."

Godolski: "That's quite provocative of Klopp, perhaps he is sad I refused him twice. Then again, he has a point, I'm too expensive for BVB because they have no more CL revenue, since they finished last in their group I can understand I'm not worth the expense."

So Podolski wants CHL right? Come to Arsenal you future Arsenal legend

I highly doubt he'd go back to Bayern or that Bayern would take him back, especially when Reus is at a similar price-point.

Liverpool baby.....WE NEED HIM SO BADLY

Well, Schalke are contenders, too. They actually admitted being interested in him. ^^

Schalke don''t need him...He'll be a Kop favorite in a heartbeat. oh man i'm having an orgasm even thinking about him in a pool shirt

Schalke have the advantage of being around the corner of Cologne, though. He wouldn't even have to move away from his hometown, and knowing how deeply rooted Poldi is in Kölle, that might be an important argument for him.

What is Podolski looking for? If it's CL football, them i'm guessing Schalke will have the best chance of signing him. But if it's a big club, with rich history, amazing fans, incredible stadium, and talented teammates then Liverpool is the best choice outside of Germany.

Well, amazing fans & incredible stadium works for Schalke, too. Talented team mates... Imagine Poldi playing together with the Hunter and Pukki (provided Raúl really leaves, which would be a sad thing IMO), that attack would be win, too. Big club? In Germany, Schalke is the second biggest club after Bayern, IIRC. The only thing going against them is their problem obtaining the salad dish

Well I believe Poldi got frustrated with Koln because he wanted us to get into Europe, and for a while this season it didnt look like that would happen. Buts its not certain he will leave. And remember that Koln have a game in hand, against Mainz in tuesday, and if they win, they move into 6th. If Clemens, Jajalo, obviously Poldi, etc keep performing well and we sign a player or two in january I could definitely see us getting into Europe and Poldi staying.

Really nice vid with Huntelaar doing the honors(start at 1:40 if you'd like). The Kop is outstanding, but S04 ain't too shabby.

So what's a more realistic translation?

Poldi is definitely not going back to Bayern after we denied his Holyness.

Oh, the translation gave pretty much the intent of the little banter

Here's the more boring close-to-the-source version:

Criticism directed at Poldi:

"Lukas is an extraordinary player. But I believe he is so hyped in Cologne that it is difficult for him to give his best effort regularly," BVB coach Jürgen Klopp told sky. "With his potential he should be one of the best, if not the best striker in the Bundesliga - but he isn't. That's because he doesn't put in his best effort each time. And that means he would be too expensive for us [as he only achieves his top performance] just for a few weeks [during a season]," Klopp added markedly.


Sardonic reply in direction BVB:

When confronted with the words of the black and yellow coach, Podolski immediately replied via Express [tabloid from Cologne]: "These are some charming statements from Mister Klopp. Maybe he is just a little sad that I already turned him down twice," Podolski retorted. "On the other hand he is right, though. I am really too expensive for the BVB, now that they lack the revenue of the Champions League. As they went out as last of their group, I can understand [they think] it isn't worth it," Poldi told the tabloid.
