What a difference an N makes

By: Luke | Comments 1 Comment

I’ve taken a little break for the international week, but events certainly have not, and with the possibility of a full scale revolt on our hands after this weekend, the first thing I want to do here is a little news roundup.

File under: Malcontents
Uli Hoeness’ unsurprising response to Phillipp Lahm
Luca Toni’s “sort of” apology
Martin Demichelis [...]

Hooray for FC Hollywood

By: Luke | Comments 5 Comments

First of all, apologies to all of you for a slow response to this most interesting of weekends. Although I don’t blame the match, I’ve been pretty sick for three days, but trying to make a comeback today.
Clearly, I don’t want to write a match review. I’d simply make two points about the [...]

FC Bayern vs Schalke 04: The Search For a Non-Stereotypical Storyline

By: Luke | Comments 14 Comments

This is a terrific match for a lazy writer. So many storylines fall right into your lap. For this occasion, I could: a) Talk about how how Felix Magath’s dismissal from Bayern looks like a terrible mistake in retrospect and b) make a very negative indictment of Louis van Gaal by some statistical [...]

Bayern vs Bordeaux-A very quick preview

By: Luke | Comments 2 Comments

Sorry to say, that I simply don’t have the time to properly preview this critical Champions League match. We’ll have to dispense with the liveblog for this one as well, although I will be watching. We’ll hope to have a recap posting up not long after the match.
With both Müller and Van [...]

The Trial of Markus Babbel

By: Luke | Comments 1 Comment

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 [...]

Visine, stat!

By: Luke | Comments 5 Comments

Let’s get the red out of our eyes and back into our kits where it belongs. Here’s 9 thoughts on a match ending with 9 men:
1) Jörg Butt had the night of his life, and he probably won’t ever get to really enjoy it because of the result. For American football fans, it [...]

Edson Braafheid is now also rated doubtful. The team has not released the article in English yet, but the German story can be seen here

Robben now out of Freiburg match; Demichelis to catch up on sleep

By: Luke | Comments 2 Comments

Completely invalidating an entire section of yesterday’s entry, Arjen Robben apparently forgot to rub magic spray or Paulaner or whatever miracle salve he was using on his surgically repaired knee and did not make the trip to Freiburg with the team. If nothing else works, he will start bathing in a nice 1985 vintage [...]

Tor Search: On To Freiburg

By: Luke | Comments 1 Comment

The show must go on, even during international weeks, and so it was that FC Bayern played a friendly match against Jahn Regensburg on Tuesday. A personal aside, if any of you ever have the opportunity to visit Regensburg, do take it. It will never get listed in the “top 10 destinations” to [...]
