ARRRRRRRRRRRGH

bayern,

what is it with Bayern and Bvb cock-blocking any German we want?

[VivaStPauli]

Well, the current Frankfurt-crop will get picked apart by the (richer) vultures of football just like the Mainz team of 2 seasons ago that lost the likes of Holtby and Schürrle in the same summer.

[la bestia negra]

BUT Frankfurt are sitting on 4th

[VivaStPauli]

And I'll be damned if we can't leapfrog Leverkusen too, FFS. But we ain't got no money - if the youngsters like Jung, Rode, and Okcipka are smart, they'll stay another season, at least, but they might not.

The sad thing is, Frankfurt got rich-as-f*ck sponsors, if the club had more prestige they could easily squeeze a sizable sum out of those companies, I wish they'd choose the coming season to increase the sponsorship deals.

It's not like Commerzbank or Fraport can't afford pumping like 50m each into the club

[aleumdance]

I don't get it,

bundesliga teams have monster game population but always say "no money"

its not like ya all spend on wages like epl and la liga

so where is da money?

[VivaStPauli]

TV-deal didn't pay out dick for the past years, this will only change with the coming season. Frankfurt just got relegated and are in their first season back up in the 1st flight, they renovated their stadium not too long back, and they never had huge income to begin with.

This is probably mostly a marketing issue, teams like Frankfurt just don't make a lot of money from endorsements and sponsorship deals, and German clubs are notoriously allergic to going into debt, even if it sometimes makes sense (iE go into debt for like 10 or 20m to stay in the first flight would pay for itself).

But frankly, I don't even really know how a club like Frankfurt, with a big stadium, being the only relevant club in it's entire region, and rich-as-f*ck sponsors can be that broke. Maybe someone else knows better (looking at you, RWO and Babun) - but I don't.

The last time I remember them being a well-outfitted side was in the 90s.

I have no idea but that their management seems to be grossly wanting.

This was a couple of weeks ago, but man just hearing reports that we've inquired about Icardi makes me jizz

Spurs are a very rich club, they only 3rd behind City and Chelsea in net spend over the last decade.

Its not that surprising tbh and ignoring TV money altogether which does help of course but they are highly likely to be in CL too next season which will help too.

He's very good RG, a Dortmund target actually. Many call him "The New Schweini".

[RealGunner]

Arsene pls don't mess this up

[Onyx]

Tuttomercato:

Manchester United and Inter Milan interested in Andreas Cornelius, who plays for FC Copenhagen.

[Abramovich]

Inui > Rode

[VivaStPauli]

rwo, viva

how good is rode ?

Too early to tell tbh, but he is very complete, and is playing a fantastic season. Good presence, runs a lot, nice positioning and tackls, good vision and passing, if he keeps up his development, he'll be a very complete CM.

[RealGunner]

i see. Thanks

[rwo power]

What Viva said. Plus that both Bayern and Dortmund are interested in him speaks volumes.

[RealGunner]

Bayern and Dortmund don't need him. He should join his fellow brothers, podolski, mertesacker and Gnabry at Arsenal

[Abramovich]

You forgot GOATfield

[Ganso]

Chelsea are planning on getting Gomez this summer according to Bild

[sportsczy]

Rumors that PSG and Juve are discussing a straight swap of Verrati and Pogba at the end of the season... tbh, it makes sense for everyone.

[RealGunner]

Sports heard of Yaya Sanogo?

Doesn't make sense from Juventus' point of view, in my opinion.

Actually Bayern don't have a proper Piggy-replacement, which Rode could be within a year if he continues his development (though I would never move to Bayern if I wasn't already the finished article) and Dortmund... Well they really don't need him. They got Sahin and Gündogan as creative DMs and Bender and Kehl as destructive ones.

But who knows.
He'd be nice to have for any team, unless it's all hot air and born from great team chemistry.
