Bayer 04 Leverkusen

So per­haps this is where we should be. Two giants of Ger­man foot­ball lock­ing horns for the title. Bay­ern Munich have won 5 of the last 9 cham­pi­onships. Mag­ath has won 3 of the last 5, is respon­si­ble for 2 of Bayern’s 5 and even led Stuttgart to 2nd in the past decade. Bay­ern win because […]

Another week, another vic­tory! This week was a 4–0 route of Nurem­burg. Bayer 04 have become, along with HSV, one of the dom­i­nant teams in the Bun­desliga. But it was only a year ago that Bayer, under Bruno Lab­ba­dia had a blis­ter­ing start. But it wasn’t any­thing com­pa­ra­ble to this start, because the Werk­self aren’t […]

With this weeks 4–0 drub­bing of Eng­land u21s by the Ger­man u21s, Die Mannschaft com­pleted a hat-trick of youth level Euro­pean Cham­pi­onships (win­ning the u17, u19, and u21 tour­na­ments).

Finally Dus­sel­dorf has come good for vis­it­ing dig­ni­taries Bayer Lev­erkusen. After a poor run of form in the league at the LTU, the Werk­self took apart Bay­ern Munich 4–2 in their tem­po­rary home to gain pas­sage to the final four of the DFB Pokal. Klins­mann tin­kered with his lineup a bit as con­ges­tion is build­ing up […]

Bild is report­ing that Marko Marin will leave cellar-dwelling Borus­sia Mochenglad­bach at the end of the sea­son. This comes as lit­tle sur­prise, as most of us assumed that unless Glad­bach escaped rel­e­ga­tion, the won­derkid would move to greener pas­tures, espe­cially with his Ger­man National team future to con­sider.
