The Natural Posted March 7, 2021 Posted March 7, 2021 Liverpool have lost their last five games at Anfield, an unwanted club record. It's about to be six vs. Fulham. What a shit season for the Premier League Champions.

Pete Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 The minnows won their cup final. Kudos. Seriously, would've preferred we not lose the winning streak at the hands of United, but that's what a truly great rivalry is all about. Also, part of me is glad it's out of the way now so we can focus on bigger and better things with one less distraction. It was an amazing run, unprecedented in league history, and you can't take that away from the club.

CW is a Blade through and through. Seems like the Prince and Wilder butted heads over bringing a director of football in. Getting out of League One and the Championship was amazing.

Talk was Rangnick or Flick, but Rangnick is now rumoured to join Schalke as some sports director type. I can't see Flick leaving Bayern. It feels like Löw should have gone after the 2014 World Cup Win, but that's hindsight 2020 (or 2021) and the team looked to be a contender even a year before 2018, there was no way to call the level of collapse. It's remarkable that Löw stuck around after that and tried to help with the rebuild, but it didn't quite seem to work out as intended and the German national team seems mid level atm. Still an amazing tenure, with a long run of final four appearances, quite a few legendary games and even silverware. Thanks and respect you shall have, Mr. Löw. 1

odessasteps Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I heard someone that covered the team on 5 live today and it's such a weird story. Clash between the owner wanting to have a series of his own clus connected vs wilder wanting more input.
AxB Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 The whole connected clubs thing, people look at Man City and all their sister teams, and then they look at Man United without any, and they think they've found the path to nirvana or some shit. 2

Wyld Samurai Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Re: Low I do wonder how big a part of Die Mannschaft's success during that reign was due to 1/2 of the XI being Bayern.
ReiseReise Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 Oh, traditionally there always been "blocks" in the good German teams. Bayern was a big part of the 1974 and 1990 teams, the 1954 World Champions had a Kaiserslautern block. Those were always essential to have a sort of team chemistry, most of the successful squads managed to put club rivalries aside for the greater good. The quality players from Bayern sure helped a lot, although to be fair, not all of them were solely Bayern products, Neuer originally came from Schalke, Lahm went to Stuttgart for a season or two to develop, Kroos played two years in Leverkusen.
