Once again, Bayern Munich goes into an away match against a familiar opponent that has its back against the wall. That would be VfB Stuttgart of course, and it makes for a little more of a dramatic storyline that Stuttgart’s coach is long time Bayern defender Markus Babbel. You can follow the action [...]

Bayern fans have done their fair share of head-scratching lately. We assemble a squad of forwards that is the envy of everyone, and yet we can’t score goals. We very slowly nurse players back from injury with the goal of having them ready to contribute right away following thorough rehabs, and yet they [...]

Louis van Gaal has got a lot on his plate these days. Two volumes are apparently required to properly cover his football greatness, although I think I’d still rather read two paragraphs from Hans Meyer. Luca Toni may have had his suspicions on the topic, but if Johan Cruyff is to be believed, LVG may [...]
Did Saturday just get easier or harder?

First, just a little aside on the DFB-Pokal: what a tremendous round 2. The Pokal certainly doesn’t seem to get much international respect, and a lot of German fans can’t be bothered with it either it seems (even the Allianz Arena was only a bit over half full on Tuesday), but I love it. [...]

FC Bayern will take on Rot-Weiss Oberhausen in a 2nd round DFB Pokal match set for Tuesday at 1 p.m. EST. As of right now, there does not appear to be a broadcast or satellite viewing option for this match in the US. The official FC Bayern website will offer live webradio coverage. I [...]

The last time that Bayern played Oberhausen was in the 1998-1999 season in which they won 3-1. The clubs [...]
