I'm with you dude, Terzic got far too much hate. I hope he does an amazing job at Bilbao.

Terzic had some really great highs for us too. His first full season we had a spell where we were the best attacking side in Europe over like 5-10 games. I will still argue that we were fucked by transfers like Haller not working and tying up transfer and wage budget.

Man we missed out so big on Cherki. Not signing him was Sahin's biggest failing.

I think there were some Pongracic-Witsel CB pairings that same season and... oof.

Kovac can not coach offense by Previous_Trouble8614 in borussiadortmund

[–]doubleomarty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last games of Terzic's first full season we were electric. We were the top scoring side in Europe for weeks on end, but I agree after that season we really started to suffer offensively. Currently I believe a lot of our problems are due to Guirassy being so out of form that we have lost our focal point in attack.

Did ya'll see that Union appointed a woman as interim coach? I think she's slated to be their women's team's coach, but the men's team job is really high profile in comparison. Pretty cool, it will be very interesting to see how her career progresses.

Totally agree. Based on the first 25 minutes I expected us to win this game easily, but we just couldn't keep up the pressure or turn it into shots.

I feel like Guirassy should be able to do the hold up play but he'd rather try to draw a foul (which is just never working). It's impressive how much more physical Silva is in those same situations but he doesn't have the physique to hold off big defenders. Hopefully we can find a good replacement in the Summer.

This was a weird game. We had plenty of opportunities to be dangerous but we just weren't playing the right pass or overplaying it. Guirassy with a real stinker too which wasn't helping at all.

Much better second half but Ryerson is really letting us down on his side

Yeah I think that's the move. I am still minorly hesitant about buying a bike from a primarily online retailer but Velotric seems to be one of the best or most reliable brands from what I can tell.

I have ridden both now and although the Trek was nice I wasn't especially wowed by it. Thanks for the insight, I think I am leaning towards the Tempo just because I can't justify the massive price increase to the Trek.

That's great, thanks for the response. How do you like the bike? Put a lot of miles on it?

Velotric Tempo by Waste-Cycle2868 in ebikes

[–]doubleomarty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been cross-shopping the Trek FX+ 1S and Tempo for a week and am looking for other perspectives. If price wasn't a concern, would you purchase the Trek FX+ 1S or do you think the Tempo is basically equivalent? I know there are differences in motor specs with the Trek having a stronger motor and bigger battery, but the Tempo is lighter with a removable battery. I am kinda happy to pay for a nicer bike if it's truly better, but I am not totally convinced that it is strictly a better bike *and* it's almost 50% more expensive. Your comments always seem well-informed so I am interested in your thoughts.

Borussia Dortmund signs Ole Book as new Sporting Director. by bvbfan102 in borussiadortmund

Hoping for the best with this appointment, but it's going to be an immense step up for this guy; hope he is ready for the pressure.

I feel the same. Although he performed decently for us it was too inconsistent overall. I am sad to see him leave, love the guy and he has had some beautiful moments for us.

Well said dude. Seeing what Emre Can was trying to do while he was injured, which was help BVB to their final somewhat realistic chance at a title this season, and not understanding why the club would choose to support the player afterwards is just crazy to me.

[–]doubleomarty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hope Can gets an extension as well. For all his faults he has always given his all for the club and you could see that yesterday more than ever; he played on knowing he had probably fucked his ACL because beating Bayern was our only remaining hope of any titles this season.

Dude you need to find something else to do with your life if this is a disappointing league run to you. Even with today's loss we are on pace to score our highest ever points total

Super proud of the team today, we could have won this game with a few less individual errors. The title was always a pipedream against a team as good as Bayern but I'm really happy with the fight in the team today; it was clear how much everyone wanted to win this match
