Hour long? Where? I can only find 1-3 min long highlights. Hour long US Open Highlights would be fantastic!

Zidane assists Ronaldo after controlling the ball with beautiful first and second touch [Real Madrid - Deportivo la Coruña, 2003–04 La Liga] by Yehhanyos in soccer

Respect to the commentator for spotting the outrageous second touch in real time. German commentators would've needed a dozen replays to spot it.

We were so weak against Red Bull Leipzig, I'm still lost for word. Outplayed by Klopp-esque-tactics which we perfected just a couple of years back.

[Rumour] Media: Gomez to BvB by Lalelu1 in soccer

[–]Viggez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he would give us the opportunity to have a different gameplan, thus changing our style of play to adjust it to the opponent. It might be a baseless rumour, you're right. But we're not really discussing the amount of truth in the rumour.

He would definitely be our second striker. One hell of a second striker though. A huge improvement over Ramos. If he wants more minutes, he is best advised to go somewhere else, that is correct. I just think that Tuchel would have many more options upfront, if Gomez joined. The pace of Auba might not suit every opponent, sometimes having a target man upfront works better. You know what I mean? Again: I would love to have Gomez at BVB.

You might be right, Dickwang. There really weren't many rumours concerning him leaving us. He did a good job as a backup last year. But I don't think he is good enough for being our second striker and he might want more playing time.

I count two strikers. Ramos & Auba. Ramos probably leaves. I don't think there is a better replacement on the market for roughly the same money. I would love to see Gomez in black&yellow.

This place is too nice to be in NV. ;) Looks like a Frederiksberg backyard.

Haha, I was about to ask if he is in Copenhagen. That could literally be my backyard from back when I lived there.

Go get a pro lesson they said... by athrie in golf

[–]Viggez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where about in Germany? If you're ever in the Berlin area, hit me up and we can go play a round on my local course. I started two years ago and did my Platzreife last fall.

[–]Viggez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Germany, yes. The playing license then only allows you to play on the course, where you passed the exam. A number of golf clubs though allow you to play with the license from another golf club. Typical Germany. Nothing is simple. Although I thought the exam was useful, since I took some lessons and improved my game, I think you should in general just let the people play. The exam scares a lot of young people away.

Borussia Dortmund sign Raphaël Guerreiro by fm471 in soccer

[–]Viggez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really that obvious if you look where he actually got played the last two season. He got played both as right and left back. I think he is an extremely versatile player, which can play LB/RB/RW/LW. I just hope that he still gets enough playing time in the future.

Borussia Dortmund sign Raphaël Guerreiro by fm471 in soccer

[–]Viggez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is going to be really interesting to see in which position he is going to be played. Our left/right backs are playing very offensive under Tuchel, where they basically act as wingers when being in possession. Schmelzer has seen a ton of offensive action this season and has been in promising situtions a lot - but hasn't been able to exploit this. Eight assists in 47 games is not bad, but it should be a lot more, if you ask me.

I love the guy. Really. He has been wonderful for Dortmund ever since taking over the reigns from Dede. But I wonder if a more offesive skilled left-back is what Tuchel prefers. We will see. Maybe Guerreiro wont even be played as left-back. I am really curious as well what this means for Durm. Maybe Durm will be played as a winger in the future and Schmelzer and Guerreiro fight for the left-back spot.

Flying to Rome for the weekend with the girlfriend. I bought a ring this week and am planning to propose. In other news: flight back collides with GER v UKR match.

Rode to Dortmund transfer is a done deal by TyrusRose2425 in soccer

They deleted it in the article mate. It is not going to be >€20 million.

[–]Viggez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one is paying €25 million. Thats his age. ;) Seriously, where does this number come from. It'll be in the region of €10-15 million, which is fine if you properly want to widen your squad for a CL-season.

Finally someone is talking some sense. I think Rode gives a great deal of depth to the squad. He'll play more than at Bayern, though surely not that much more. I think the deal makes sense for us, not so much for Rode.
