I don't think Nkunku can carry Leipzig like Werner did.

[Robespierre]

I feel Havertz's departure ( in fact I don't have inserted Leverkusen on top 4 ) can be even heavier than those of Werner.
At the end RBL has a better structure imo and Nageselman is better than Bosz. I 've read very good things about Hwang ( another player passed from a Red Bull team another Red Bull team, we'll see )

Thimmy predicted Ausburg's relegation but conversely I expect a good league by them , as indeed it was happening before lockdown. Moreover they 've added some good cheap signing as Caligiuri and Strobl.

Berlin clubs are enigma.  Hertha Berlin - again good expectations, are they going to betray again ? Hans is convinced yes , even    predicted the relegation. Instead I want to believe they 'll overachieve.

Union Berlin ( I like them more than their Western cousins ) start with opposite expectations, exactly as last year. But then they surprised  positively..

[BarcaLearning]

Sorry for being slow to things, but Thiago left because of what exactly? And only for 30M?

So Bayern starts the league in devastating form still. I dont see how any team can come close to them, as the past few seasons have shown, Dortmund are the closest but they get raped by them completely every time.

Sane is definitely one of my favourite players to watch, together with Gnabry they got by far the best twins wings already, the new Robbery .Great to watch.

[Thimmy]

I only started following Bundesliga matches on a regular basis, last season. I picked Augsburg as relegation candidates, purely based on the impression that they looked like they belonged in a lower tier whenever I happened to watch them. I’m actually surprised they didn’t get relegated in 19/20. They’ve played some backyard- level football at times.

Tbf in all of my predictions, there's always a sizeable portion of wishful thinking present

Hah I was thinking it given your different empathy towards Hertha / Union

[Robespierre]

Hertha Fail Berlin are losing 1-3 at home against Eintracht, scored just a consolation goal now, I can feel Hans enjoying from here

[Hapless_Hans]

ffs I had tipped it to be a 1-3 and then changed it to a 1-2

shouldn't have wavered in my faith in Adolf H.

[Hapless_Hans]

RB Leipzig: Gulacsi (C) – Mukiele, Upamecano, Klostermann, Angeliño – Haidara, Adams, Kampl – Forsberg, Olmo – Poulsen.


Aufstellung FC Augsburg: Gikiewicz - Framberger, Gouweleeuw, Uduokhai, Iago - Khedira, Gruezo, Caligiuri, Hahn, Gregoritsch - Niederlechner
Aufstellung Borussia Dortmund: Bürki - Can, Hummels, Akanji - Meunier, Bellingham, Witsel, Guerreiro - Sancho, Reyna - Haaland

[Robespierre]

of course Sky Italy doesn't broadcast RBL-Leverkusen but Dortmund match at Augusburg ...I dislike this programming BVB/Bayern-centric

[Robespierre]

1-0 Augsburg , bad defence by Dortmund on this free kick

[Thimmy]

Udoukhai was the best player on the pitch before he even scored the goal. Dortmund will probably score eventually, but they haven’t created much so far.

[Duronto-Roddur]

I don't understand why Leipzig gets so much hate. It's not like they are buying success like Chelsea, City, PSG. They sell players to fund their operation. Neither is their source of fund is from some disreputable/atrocious entity/person.

[Thimmy]

0-2 to Augsburg. You know your defense is fucked when Meunier is the only guy chasing the ball. He should've known what he signed up for when he joined them

[Robespierre]

I hope Jesse Marsch, Haaland's previous manager at RB Salzburg becomes Dortmund's manager at some point in time. His even more direct brand of football is fun to watch.

[Thimmy]

Haaland's first chance of the match. 89 minutes in

[Robespierre]

Sacked the Schalke manager, we have our first prediction
